The Dept of #VeteransAffairs plans to abruptly eliminate as many as 35k #healthcare positions this month, mostly unfilled #jobs including #doctors, #nurses & #support staff, acc/to an internal memo, #VA staffers & congressional aides.

The cuts come after a massive reorganization effort already resulted in the loss of almost 30k employees this year.

A very good piece in @wsj on the economics of immigration: reducing legal pathways for immigrants in the U.S. and mass deportation are bad for the economy, disincentivize integration and leads to more crime by removing legal ways to make a living.

A comic strip titled "TrueNuff Heck Support" Jay is IT person and when looking at the coworker monitor, he yells "NO," when asked, "JAY, CAN I INSTALL ...?" Jay walks away from a female coworker who says, "I THINK MY COMPUTER NEEDS ....," to which he replies, "IT DOESN'T." Another coworker shouts, "HEY! WHY'S MY COMPUTER BROKEN AGAIN?" Jay yells back, "BECAUSE YOU DOWNLOAD DUMB SHIT." Later, Jay is relaxing on a couch playing video games. Another person asks him, "HOW WAS WORK?" Jay, holding a bottle, smiles and replies, "AWESOME."

"And especially in North Carolina, when small businesses are 50% of your workforce and also farms and agribusiness are the number one economic driver in your state…. This is just impacting people, again, who don't feel safe to go to work, even if they are U.S. citizens. And it's just it's hit everybody everywhere in every sector."

"Trump’s tariffs are raising the price of material inputs and his deportations labor inputs, jacking up housing prices.

The same is happening on farms that are so short-staffed that Trump’s own Department of Labor warns the nation’s food supply is at risk.”

“For years, the MAGA right has insisted that deporting undocumented workers would free up jobs, lower prices, and restore an imagined Leave It to Beaver-esque past where ‘real Americans’ can thrive. They particularly hammer (no pun intended) the allegedly positive impact of fewer immigrants on the housing market."

"Vice President JD Vance claimed last week, ‘Illegal immigrants [are] taking houses that ought, by right, go to American citizens.’

But Trump’s mass deportation scheme actually works against the goal of making housing more affordable—because immigrants are a huge source of labor in the construction industry."

This by Zito Madu is excellent. Our society is built as an ever-faster-spinning hamster wheel, one where those who don’t work & who are poor are denigrated.
Yet also, even the well-educated with “great resumes” find their jobs & lives ever more precarious.

I wish I could talk about the politics of work in the United States — the fact that it's harder and harder to live a decent life with a full time job, that every industry is made increasingly precarious by the tech evangelists who will invent any and every way to put people out of work, and that even beyond that, it feels spiritually deadening that so much of work has no meaning or benefit outside of completing repetitive tasks and that work dominates so much of people's day to day lives that one can rightly say that we've turned human life into one endless workday where the possibility of rest only exists to get you ready again for work. There's so much literature on all of these topics and I find the topics fascinating and critical to building a better world and shape of human life, but I just can't get past the initial step where we judge that even though the money, resources, and food is available, that some people should suffer because they don't work. And not only suffer but that they deserve to do so. It is what they have earned. I feel like accepting that sets you on a morally and spiritually dangerous path. Even if,
