Although the US government has introduced various "self-help" policies, it is said that it has been bitten by a snake for ten years and is afraid of the well rope. In contrast to Americans returning to pre-pandemic life, all walks of life in the United States are facing labor shortages. And it's about to create America's "most memorable" Christmas — a Christmas without Santa Claus in large numbers of Americans.
Observer Network reported on the 6th that for American workers, the previous epidemic has been a heavy hammer, and now the emergence of the "Omikejong" strain is more like a signal of dissuasion, so that the labor market that has just improved in the United States has become deserted again, and this phenomenon is also reflected in the tiny group of Santa Claus players. Even if major stores and malls raise the salary of Santa Claus actors to $10,000, they can't hire enough Santa Claus.
Because most of the Santa Claus actors are some older Americans, this group itself belongs to the high-risk group. Coupled with the news that "300 Santa Claus" died within a year announced by the relevant departments in the United States, a considerable number of Santa Claus actors were reluctant to perform in public and chose not to participate in this year's American Christmas activities. Although such Santa Claus does not make up the majority, it still gives the United States a gap of 3,000 Santa Claus.
In the face of a serious shortage of Santa Claus, the major merchants in the United States began to try their best to find some alternatives, including Santa Claus with "blackface" and even Santa Claus in "suits and shoes", but even so, the major merchants in the United States are still worried that santa claus's absence will seriously affect their sales, and the competition is only a mall with Santa Claus blessing.
In fact, the lack of Santa Claus is only the tip of the iceberg of the "labor shortage" in the United States, the relevant departments in the United States statistics, in the past few months, millions of American workers have chosen to resign, although most of them will choose to re-employment, but in the gap of one or two months to change jobs, American companies have been under considerable pressure.
Not to mention the strikes of hundreds of thousands of people, with protesting workers saying, "We work at the risk of contracting the virus, while the boss and the management sit in the office without taking any risk." The most important thing is that our wages have not only not increased, but even decreased, and we will no longer use our lives to help enterprises accumulate wealth. Protest workers said that unless the U.S. government can mediate the contradictions between enterprises and them, it is to force enterprises to give more money.
US media reports said that the epidemic has brought far more to the United States than a string of data on the panel of the health department, but also to the huge pressure on the real economy. Over the past period, the price of energy goods such as gasoline and natural gas has risen by 50%, and even the price of semi-finished meat products for daily consumption has risen by about 30%. Don't think that such a rise is not large, it brings great pressure to the residents of the United States, and even completely destroys the lives of some American families.
"Although we have not lost our jobs in the epidemic, we have barely been able to keep our families fed. But the sharp rise in the price of goods has stretched our families to the limit, and the only guarantee now is that the children are not hungry, and there is gasoline in the fuel tank of the car for work, and there is no guarantee in other aspects. A father with 3 children told reporters.
This father is definitely not alone, but a microcosm of the male owners of 30% of american families. According to the statistics of the US Social Security Department, because of the rise in material prices, about 50% of the lives of American families have been affected to varying degrees, and a considerable part of the lives of a large number of them have even reached the point of "struggling" and have to greatly reduce their daily living expenses.
The reason why American families are facing such a situation is not only the reason for the epidemic, but also the reason for the Biden administration's "money- throwing" tactics. While the $10 trillion issued by the Biden administration changed the plight of Americans in a short period of time, the inflation that followed was also because of the $10 trillion.
