I don't think there are enough skilled jobs for everyone

There would be a lot more jobs if we readjusted the way we look at work. Lower full time to 30 hours a week, eliminate "free overtime" salaries, require vacation time, maternal/paternal leave, worker owned co-ops keeping their jobs from getting shipped away, start building publicly funded mental health/ drug rehab clinics everywhere. There are a lot of ways to create more jobs. The fact that the jobs don't exist now doesn't mean we can't make them, we just need to shift our priorities.
