Oh my god, I've got a social studies exam at the 30th of this month. My whole class got confused at these type of unempolyments. Thanks a lot, Professor Dave!! This is exactly what I needed.
This whole series on economics has been extremely informative. A lot of people don't understand the U.S.' definition of Unemployment Rate, and it gets misused quite often - even by certain past Presidents. Thanks, again, Professor Dave, for another solid teaching moment. Also, just out of curiosity, back when you were doing the band gig, did you consider yourself employed or underemployed? Watching all those videos on your other channel, it certainly seems like you were enjoying the music.
I mean I didn't consider the band to be employment because I wasn't really earning any money. I had to teach/tutor all the while and was broke as a joke. But it's still the dream!
Unemployment, the final frontier, these are the voyages of an unemployed, who is continuing mission, to seek out how people without work can become happy, to boldly go where no man has gone before. 🖖 (Into a future were industry and economy are completely automated and we all receive an unconditional basic income.) Cheers 😉
Just found your channel and binge watching. Love it! Where do people on Social Security Disability fit in? It’s so true what you said at first that your job is a big part of your identity. Not working really changes things you never think it would.
I'm currently "Structurally Underemployed" because I was lied to about "muh Trades!" (Went to Trade School to be a Welder only to end up a CircleK Cashier). So much for Welding "Being In Demand" because, clearly, it is not.
What is it called when you have a disability and go to government programs for 10+ years and ask for a job, but you don't get taken seriously, and only get internships thst lead nowhere, and when you're 30 years old you get kicked out of the programs even though the company you were at the last time promised you a job if you interned for a couple more weeks?
You didn't say WHY it's impossible to have %0 unemployment. In a nutshell, it's not good for business. Employers must be able to extract as much value out of their employees as possible, and they can do that partly by always indirectly threatening them with unemployment, as there exist many people who can take their place. Job security is not profitable.
Your explanation talks about why it's not recommended or isn't happening, not impossible. The structural unemployment slides speak to me the most, so I'll use that type for an example. Say everyone is employed. Some people's jobs are to make other human tasks more efficient, and as technology advances, the human is removed from that task. If someone's aim was to stop technology from removing humans from their tasks, one way to do that would be stopping the people that advance this technology from doing their jobs. If those people are not needed, their position would become obsolete, and they would be affected by structural unemployment. Preserving the labor force of one industry in this example would mean putting the humans in the other out of work, since there will be less tasks than people available to do them no matter which way the scale tips. Either employers take on advancements to increase their employees' efficiency, eventually eliminating one or two employees at a time, or inventors are driven out of work. Someone could say that these employees could work alongside the technology, but the only way to keep all of the employees would be to expand the business, and space for expansion is finite. Even if all employees work from home, some of technology's next advancements would be to make the human side of even their work-from-home tasks more efficient, and eventually, fully automated. There won't be room for everyone.
The ideal situation would be for a person to live in Minnesota and be able to both, mow lawns and plow snow. Or just move to Minnesota, if they already have the particular skill set... 🤔
One thing Id like to note is that some employees aren't necessarily bad employees, but fired because of egotistical bosses who came across a slight that they committed and used that in documentation for their termination of employment.

@@chadliampearcy Well, I didn't read that much yet, though I own the main work of Pierre Bourdieu and Niklas Luhmann(those are difficult to read and also much to read). But I'm thinking very much about the concepts in my head, especially habitus concept and system theory. Habitus is pretty important for things like social inequality between gender, race, class and sociology of knowledge and science. What I don't like are socialbiologists who actually think the social differences of races and gender in our society are a natural order. Which is called biologism(an ideology actually) and some evolutionare biologists tend to such views, which is totally idiotic to think if you know the sociological perspective. Sociology can explain society so much better than biology. The latter is just a whole fallacy.
@@wasanderesalsihrseid Thanks for the recommendations. I will check them out or at least add them to my library. I'm unsure where I stand on the question of which 'social differences' are natural and which are while, 'social'. The most important thing to me is that humans and other animals are not regarded as that different. I take issue with any theory that makes a huge differentiation between us and other animals. Yes, there are things that make us uniquely human, but we are like other animals all the same. Of course I am of belief that 'human races' are fundamentally the same, the social differences are cultural if anything, while the biological differences are things like skin tone and hair and maybe things like disease resistance. We're not very different. I don't believe there would be enough selection pressure for 'real differences'. A 'german' family may be 'smarter' than another 'german' family but somewhere else there would be a 'slav' family just as 'smart'. There are more differences within a race than between races. If Neanderthals were still around I might've begged to differ, but they're all dead. If there were social differences of genders across different societies in humans that would be a social or cultural difference. But if it were among species, it would be quite the question. I tend to think that what may be 'common' may be 'the natural order' allowing for some discrepancies. It may not be just the same. If there are differences in something there's probably not a 'natural order' to it. I think the question is a rather fundamental one in the field of research and we should study a topic with both hypothesizes in mind.
One of the big reasons I went into the HVAC/R industry is because short of a collapse of civilization, my skills will always be in demand, at least for the remainder of my lifetime. ;)
Unless we redesign housing and homes, plumbing and hvac will be some of the last jobs to automat for sure! Especially since people are so opposed to change and entrenched in the idea of “it’s always been this way so it will always be this way”. As foolish as this is, it’s super prevalent and detrimental to us all. As much as things have changed in modern times, so many things really do remain the same, such as our homes, being built on sight with old materials. Plus the way contractors work, which is to build or repair homes in a way that makes future repairs very hard to do, it’s actuality a mentally of “i won’t be the person to do the next repair, so let’s do this the easiest way even if it’s going to fail and require repair in the future, as long as I get paid and the owner thinks it works then it’s a job well done. If you’re in hvac then I’m not telling you about the concept of “F-- the next guy and the homeowner” I’m sure you encounter it daily! I’m a novice but I often terrible repairs that even I can do better with my minimal skills and knowledge… things like exposed coolant lines or ductwork that hang down and take a route that’s longer than needed, poorly sealed plenum. My home should have atleast 1 more return air vent to help distribution… usually I’m told I need to add more vents to pump out more cold air to the warm rooms. 🙄

So if I decide to dedicate my life to being a homeless person, then I'm not unemployed? The same applies when I win a lottery ticket, have some source of income as being a landlady or start selling drugs?

@@elzbietakowalska6432 The official U.S. definition is "people who are jobless, actively seeking work, and available to take a job".

Cyclical unemployment is the only one I think could be reasonably reduced if we deregulated the economy and switched to a fixed-volume money supply. Most economic downturns are caused directly by changes in government policy which have negative impacts on the market and thus everyone's lives.
Practically every economic downturn ever has been the result of some kind of disaster (like a plague or war) or from poorly regulated markets overleveraging assets.
@@Fanon1916 2008 was literally caused by lending laws which forced banks to lend to people with poorer credit on the basis of race, and those bad loans caused market inflation, and ended up being bundled into toxic asset swaps. It's the direct fault of government regulation producing a perverse incentive in the market and then subsequently giving those unscrupulous lenders free money to bail them out of their poo poo kaka mess. It was directly the fault of the government all the way down. Them literally not touching the housing market would've prevented 2008 from occurring, you economically illiterate sheep.
Some unemployment isn't really unemployment. Some unemployment is just thousands of guys waiting to get discovered as rappers.
