This article isn't worth the time spent reading it.<p>About the only thing they got right is the fact that large business has become delusional, and being delusional is not just a dick move.<p>Being delusional is synonymous with blind and evil at that level, but this is not some revolution, it is normal economics and it has predictable dynamics, that ultimately end in collapse, which is what we have been living through in a slow moving state of ruin, for quite some time but it is accelerating and it was caused by the central bankers and their comrades funded by preferential business loans, paid by your tax dollars through non-fractional banking.<p>We aren't that far off, and the talent brain drain that is happening is silent.<p>When you have malign parties cooperating to suppress wages, price gouge, cause shortage, impose higher costs on everyone, as well as keeping wages well below what is needed to secure financial safety for rearing children, and the employee can't find a job in their specialized profession despite being highly competent, those people leave for other options.<p>People stop having children, old with resources outcompetes young, and then there is a great dying.<p>People go where the jobs are, even if things normalize again later they don't just come back to that profession, they hang that hat up for good when its no longer viable.<p>No amount of money will bring them back to that profession. The golden time period for this seems to be about 1-2 years without being able to find work in their fields.<p>Once it happens, it becomes a closed road to them, and this psychology is sticky and is already happening. If you thought it was hard to find talent before, when you have large companies laying off 20% of their tech staff, they can't just rehire that 20% back because the competency isn't accounted for, you get the bottom of the barrel.<p>Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.<p>You have a higher chance of losing the competent people forever than getting bare bones competency in a glut with no real way to validate competency.<p>Companies can be deceptive, but what that means is they lose credibility, and competent people discern, and when there is a silent vote of no confidence, where those intelligent people withdraw their support; ruin overtakes everything faster, and no amount of misinformation can hide this beyond a certain point.<p>If you are competent at your job, and there's a glut, you are better off going into another field despite being less proficient.<p>If companies are going to be malign, withdraw your support; stop giving them your mind. The time for talk came and went. Rise up, and take back the only thing you have of value that can't be taken from you without your consent; your mind.<p>Learn a productive trade, become a farmer, stop contributing support to systems that seek to destroy you. Prepare for the worst, because it is coming. The unprepared typically die, the prepared generally survive.
