the newest mod of 28 days (and 21 years old) did like five other interviews with major outlets that have yet to be released. seems like the person has never been employed.
:bear-despair:
Who's /u/Kimezukae ? Why did he do interviews?
Hello, I'm a 21 years old male, long-term unemployed and an Anarchist. I've been surfing this Subreddit since 2020 and it helped me in my journey when I started to began to be unemployed. When I began to read this Subreddit I was a leftist-liberal, namely a social->democrat. I've been reading some of the recommended literature from the library since then, for example Bob Black's "Abolition of Work" and have been radicalized to an Anarchist.
Both of these things can be explained by low unemployment as a result of low interest rates: lower unemployment increases the bargening position of workers, resulting in better pay and a higher succes-rate of collective action.
We had low interests rates as far back as 2008. We're only just now seeing labor actions 14 years later.
The low unemployment isn't just due to lending. There's a serious shortage of physical bodies.
But the fed and the ECB have only expanded their monetary stimules since then. You can see on their balance which I linked, that they've kept on buying bonds since then, which decreases real interest rates for companies, much more than what's possible trought just lowering the federal funds rate or EONIA (which is what's usually meant when people are refering to low interest rates).
