Jobless people in 1991:

The job market has changed. Landing work used to depend on who you knew, where you lived, and whether one person was willing to give you a shot. Today someone can apply to 500 jobs, rewrite their resume for every posting, sit through seven interview rounds and still get an automated rejection or nothing at all. It's brutal and it's exhausting and it's slowly killing people who are genuinely trying. Personal responsibility still matters. But the system is not the same one your parents navigated. Which is why the smartest move in 2026 might not be another 500 applications. It might be building your own thing. You already have a phone and a laptop. You already have a skill someone will pay for. Stop begging a system that keeps moving the goalposts and start building the one that pays you directly. That's how you take your income back. #business #jobs #entrepreneur #businessideas #cashflow
