Every job should have a public posting period and all qualified candidates should have to be interviewed, no exceptions. Idk why only public sector work has remotely sane hiring policies.

    We need a Civilian Conservation Corps to build climate change mitigation projects. Not necessarily nice jobs but something guaranteed to everyone who needs work.

    Of course the capitalists would never have it again. They need their reserve army of labor.

      Genuinely if we had a universally offered 100k salary for “You do the climate mitigation work we tell you to do” it would fix half of the US’s domestic problems

        You could get people to do it for 20 bucks an hour in the south and 27 and hour on the coasts. Forget 100k, people can't afford housing.

          See I specifically set it so high because it would lift the rest of society up because now you have to pay 80k to get someone to work at McDonald’s. When there’s a single employer that will give anyone a great salary it makes the rest compete with them.

          This is in “if we’re gonna do capitalism let’s throw in a couple things to make it work right” mode
