Discussion on Workforce and Socialism

I shared your monologue from last week.

Oh, yeah.

I thought it was really important,

because you didn't accuse anybody of anything, really.

Just quoted. You quoted.

Yeah.

So I put this up on my little page,

and I wrote what I wrote.

And we have over 200,000 comments on this thing.

You hit something that's so primal right now.

And for me, I don't really have a dog in the big socialism hunt specifically,

but I've got one in workforce.

And when I look at 400,000 or 500,000 open jobs,

and then I look at those 7 million able-bodied men

not even looking at the jobs at all,

and then I look at this whole conversation unspooling,

I don't know if you saw this,

but the stat that got me within the Democratic Party right now,

59% of Democrats who support socialism have college degrees.

40% who support socialism don't.

So this thing that's being called a worker uprising,

it's really not. No.

It's not.

This is happening because a lot of people with a really expensive credential

are in the hole in a big way.

And they're pissed.

And I don't blame them, honestly.

I mean, you can say what you want about it,

but they took our advice, man.

They took our advice. We said,

borrow whatever it takes.

Go follow your dream,

and then go get your dream job.

And that was a bunch of nonsense.

Yeah, they don't want to borrow money to get a degree

for a job that doesn't exist.

And I don't want to lend them money

that they'll never be able to pay back

to get their credentials for the job that they want.
