Unemployment Crisis In India

There are three people in your house who are unemployed: your father, mother, and siblings. So, who among them will be considered unemployed? Will your mother be considered unemployed because she manages the household? Consider a person aged 15 to 59 who wishes to work at a market rate and with the necessary qualifications. However, he is unable to find work. He is then referred to as unemployed. So, if you're between the ages of 15 and 59 and don't want to do anything, you're wasting your time. He consumes food, drinks, and sleeps. So, which category does he belong to? So these people are a burden on the family and the nation because they eat just as much, use the same resources, and contribute just as much filth and pollution. However, neither they nor the country's economy are improving. The more people who work in the house, the better.…Read Full Article on -:

Teffal Mohamed Amine has given up hope on ever buying a home. "I've completely maxed out my savings and credit card that were supposed to be used for a house," he tells CTV News. "I've literally had to go without food for lack of money at times, especially recently." The software engineer was laid off from his job in December 2022. "I was on probation and a lot of people, including myself, were let go for lack of budget," he explained, adding he's been on employment insurance (EI) ever since -- but has yet to receive a single cent.

Even though I don't think Timothy would ever miss Jack per se I imagine that his death still left a void that Tim doesn't know how to fill

Because what exactly do you do when the man who essentially dictated every aspect of your life is now dead? What can you even do when you're still wearing his face? Fuck if Tim knows

It's me, the reservations anon again. Thank you for your answer, I got some insights that I was previously overlooking.

Why it felt unfair to me is because I've seen a few instances where the reservations did my general category friends bad. The cutoffs vary way for colleges vary way too much when you compare the general category cutoffs with the reservations cutoff. For example, to get into one of the top colleges, a general category candidate had to get 40 more questions correct in an entrance exam compared to that of a SC/ST candidate.

My friend who is from an economically weaker background didn't get a seat in the general category but another from a stronger economic background but SC/ST category got a better seat.

I completely understand how reservations equip people of "lower castes" (I completely support your views about abolishing the caste system entirely.) but I feel it would be better if reservations were done on the basis of economic background and not the caste.

I completely respect that your views are different from mine. It's just that my experiences with reservations are different.

I don't hold any strong views, I'm simply here to gain a different perspective and understand reservations better. Thank you!

yes there are issues with the way reservations function I'm no one to deny that but I'm not really on board for the alternative for intersectionality is really important here. a brahmin in poverty is limited by his economic background while a dalit in poverty is limited by both his caste status + economic background. and again, either way the solution to this is not to decrease or completely remove reservations, nor is this a flaw inherent to reservations, thereby making them unfair in nature. really the onus should be on colleges to reduce the ridiculously high cutoffs or to increase seats (and the implementation of reservations could be reformed however way seem fit sure)

and tbh the purpose of reservations isn't even poverty alleviation it's really social justice and inclusion cause let's be honest what does it matter that you go to a great university when your classmates are casteist to the point of you dropping out or an even worse outcome caste does affect access to resources

Hello!

I feel very embarrassed to be asking for donations, but I am broke and unfortunately unemployed despite my best efforts. And I need to save up enough money to get a place I can afford to live in with my cats, Luna:

and Beaker:

I don't need anything fancy, just a place in the city so I can still take transit to appointments and continue to be treated for my chronic illness/disability.

All reblogs deeply appreciated 🫂🙏

TORONTO - Canadian Tire Corp. Ltd. has cut about three per cent of its workforce in its fourth quarter as tougher economic times weigh on consumer's willingness to spend. The retailer said Thursday that it also won't fill most of its current job vacancies, resulting in a further reduction of three per cent. The president and chief executive of the Toronto-based retailer, which also owns SportChek, Party City, Mark's and Helly Hansen, characterized the decision to slash jobs as "tough" and said it was made "with a heavy heart." "There's no question that the most difficult business decisions are the ones that impact your people," Greg Hicks said on a Thursday call with analysts.

The situation in Lebanon today is bleak. Carved out of the remains of the Ottoman Empire and subjected to years of colonialism-lite administration by France, its economy and infrastructure have been devastated by a long civil war, overlapping occupations by Syria and Israel, and corruption on a massive scale. Since 2019, Lebanon has been in the midst of a severe financial crisis, with widespread unemployment and hyperinflation. Now 80% of the population is poor and Lebanon is on the brink of becoming a failed state.

And yet, JD Harlock, Poetry Editor at Solarpunk Magazine, who lives in Beirut, believes in solarpunk. Join us for this episode to find out how that can be and what day to day life is like in Beirut right now.
