@a3 You're the one that clearly doesn't understand what is going on. Hans "is" part of the elite class, the very class that this administration is protecting. This is economics 101. These are Corp. raiders, they don't care about the working people, they (CEOs, shareholders, etc.) only care about inflating their pockets. There was a huge tax break extended to these Corps. this year and all of these Companies have laid off or are laying off in 2025, Verizon, Meta, Microsoft, Intel, Amazon, IBM, Blue Origin, UPS just to name a few. You will change your mind about this government when you proceed to file for unemployment. You will see just how inefficient this government really is. They support these layoff, yet they drag their feet when it comes to paying out unemployment. We pay into this bucket, but they have the authority to deny you UE. Stop trusting these politicians, this goes for both the Democrats and Republicans. We need to band together and take the Country back from these wealthy blood su-kers.

A 16 hour workweek fixes all this.

With the way things are going in the employment market, there will be a day of reckoning for all these large organizations.

@a2 Clearly you have no idea what has been going on inside of Verizon. Hans is the main cause of the decline of Verizon and it has nothing to do with any political admin. Hans was fired from Verizon for causing the mess it is in now.

Trumpflation and tariff stupidity are really taking a toll.

Lame excuse (AI), but not all that surprising if you've paid attention to the mass layoffs in Oct.
