A comment on The May jobs report had “misclassification error,” underreported by 3 points. Parent comment
But there isn’t nearly that amount of work needed. So they are asking employees to report the high numbers anyway.
This effectively shifted unemployment insurance benefits to business benefits that are still sponsoring (at least in part) zero utility.
It’s a great smokescreen. And fwiw, it is probably a better Posture to have workers “ready to go” should there be something for them to do.
But make no mistake this is not business as usual. It is more like a shell game for stats and monetary distribution.
