Stuff is coming back because we have a lot of young and cheap labor with the Boomers going away, we have the ability to replace them and add more.

Maybe this is part of the reason for tons of illiterate invaders? Chhhheeeeaaaapppp labor for the factories.

Oddly enough, the supposedly apolitical Fed chair Powell said we need the workers when remarking on the illegal invasion.

Probably if I was being honest. I do think it can influence and help skilled workforces here in the states. Hard to tell until it happens. On wave one currently after Covid. So we'll see.

Google has initiated significant layoffs across its various teams, including the Voice Assistant, hardware, engineering and ad sales teams, marking a continuation of the tech industry’s trend towards reducing workforce expenses. The layoffs have affected hundreds of employees within the Voice Assistant unit; hardware teams responsible for Pixel, Nest and Fitbit products; and a considerable portion of the augmented reality (AR) team. This move is part of Google’s broader effort to streamline operations and align resources with its most significant product priorities.

Late last year, there were already worries within the company that AI was going to begin replacing employees at Alphabet. Futurism reported late last year the technology giant has already begun the process of replacing some jobs with AI tools developed internally. But this differs from what Google's senior vice president, Philipp Schindler, said on a recent earnings call about the recent restructuring and job cuts.

Schindler said, "I want to be clear, when we restructure, there's always an opportunity to be more efficient and smarter in how we service and grow our customers." He went on to say, "We're not restructuring because AI is taking away roles that's important here. But we see significant opportunities here with our AI-powered solution to actually deliver incredible ROI at scale, and that's why we're doing some of those adjustments."

If history is any indication.

In the face of massive, unprecedented, levels of illegal immigration. Millions and millions of illiterate, unskilled, 'laborers' from around the world.
Well, the ones I have seen in on-the-street interviews will never compete for work or be productive contributors anyway.

How many unskilled workers do we need ? Its like playing a computer simulation game of a civilization or town. There is only a certain percentage of unskilled workers needed in order to optimally ensure a harmonious society AND effective economy.
