I believed it was somewhat odd that by some means there may be such a steep lack of labor talked about by the fed and the information cycles. I do see how the pandemic acquired many boomers to retire and a few that handed away or the place left with well being points. However nonetheless doesn’t appear it accounted for that a lot imo.
However I did discover a number of newer and higher YouTube channels on my small market so it acquired me considering that what if the pandemic drove so many low wage staff into the web financial system and made sufficient cash by YouTube and different platforms that even when it’s not a full time wage or nearly as good as prior jobs, it’s nonetheless preferable than working at Taco Bell or low degree clerk and so forth.
It’s only a random thought and located some stats from 2017 the place it mentions 17 million individuals within the us earned revenue from the creator financial system whereas 12 million the place from manufacturing. In 2017 content material creators earned $4 billion, 20% improve from 2016. Now think about throughout and after the pandemic.
Presently the fed is attempting to kill demand, elevating charges to mainly get extra staff fired in order that method inflation goes down. Extra out there staff means firms can decrease salaries and in flip costs get lowered.
May or not it’s that the fed possibly isn’t conscious of this creator financial system state of affairs and simply going over acquainted patterns of “sturdy labor=elevate charges” when possibly some Easy goverment regulation would ship tens of millions of staff to common job? Or at the very least it’s a mixture of issues however the creator financial system is only one that’s not being seen critically.
Properly, it’s my random thought. So many information articles level to many issues I simply wished to have a dialogue about one thing extra unique and odd. Perhaps it’s improper.
Right here is the stats I discussed above. I couldn’t discover from previous 2020. I’m certain many YouTubers don’t earn as a lot however a big chunk may after 2020.
