so you went for an unpaid internship as an angry commenter, nice.

After years of messaging that men are bad, this does not seem like a surprising consequence.
Yet women will still complain without acknowledging their privilege and misandry.
they will blame the video games
As businesses scale back due to economic slowdown there are fewer unskilled labour jobs in factories, warehouses, moving companies, etc. Those are usually filled by men. It’s not a shocker that interest rate increases lead to a drop in jobs.
I wonder what the best opportunities to invest now are, there are opinions but a little later I find out these opinions don't matter as a totally different turn of events play out with the stocks they discussed therein...
If you’re new to investing or have a more complex financial situation, It can be helpful to work with a financial advisor who can provide personalized guidance and help you make informed investment decisions.
Even with the right technique and assets some investors would still make more than others, as an investor, you should’ve known that by now, nothing beats experience and that’s final, personally I had to reach out to a market analyst for guidance which is how I was able to grow my account close to a million, withdraw my profit right before the correction and now I’m buying again.
That's correct. At first, I wasn't too pleased with my gains compared to my previous performances, I was doing so poorly, I thought I needed to diversify into better assets, so I got in touch with an investment-advisor. That same year, I pulled a net gain of 550k, which is about 10 times more than I average on.
How can I participate in this? I sincerely aspire to establish a secure financial future and am eager to participate. Who is the driving force behind your success?.
Ethan Grayson is one of the finest portfolio managers in the field. He's widely recognized; you should look him up.
To put it clearly . We have a huge problem in Canada with regards to cost of living, immigration, housing, quality of life, for 🇨🇦
oh so this must be the male patriarchy I keep hearing so much about
2:47 yes.. it's the video games taking opportunities away 🙄
Why is this Julia woman so smug and nonchalant about this issue? She seems to mock the unemployables.
Life has been made so difficult for young men that they've given up. Why marry and buy a home when that just makes you a slave to debt and to the bills for children half of you will not get to raise or know past their early years?
Why so smug? Probably because she think "lazy basement dwellers". But research on this subject point to poorer background, often with a history of abuse and poor social skills. Video games, drugs and porn are just desperate attempt to dull the pain, basically.
@@mariannerichard1321you've been hurt
She already has plans to move to the US.
@@DS-jv2vb I'm fine, don't worry. If you are interested in the subject, Dc. K made videos about it on youtube, he says professionals between themselves call it the "shit life syndrome". Girls can also suffer from it, but they are statistically less common.
All valid points, young men have figured out the debt Venus fly trap . Work hard to build a career, buy a home, then the modern woman cleans you out and moves onto the next mug, marriage is finished the divorce laws and women's attitude of wanting more and more, you will provide !!!
Congrats D.E.I., you destroyed an entire generation!
Woe to the great white beast.
DEI is trash but that isn't the reason. The reason is partly AI, partly the economy. Soon it will be largely AI.
@@xalspaero I've been unimpressed by anything AI has done so far, or likely will do in the future.

Yea, it was DEI and not corporate greed with political corruption.

if women have been dominating secondary education and high end jobs since the 80s why the push for more equity/inclusion for women. somethings up here
Yet most presidents/prime ministers, company executives and CEOs are still men so....
@IdeationSketches But most leaders in fields in which women tend to seek postsecondary education are women. In spite of two decades of spending to encourage Canadian women into traditionally male education, such as the three most common backgrounds of CEOs - MBA, Enigineering, and Economics - women remain uninterested in those fields. While roughly 25% of Canada's CEOs are women, their representation in those programs is roughly 33%, 14%, and 40%, respectively. Depending on numbers in each program, and given that it is less likely for women to WANT to serve as the heads of companies, 25% isn't that off.
As to politics, it's like pulling teeth in Canada to find women who want to participate (Trudeau has the most diversity placements ever, but he paid zero attention to ability and credentials). Globally, lots of women have led countries.
Laying the grounds for a defence of a weak economy and the "need" for millions of delivery and fast food workers.
Mostly from a particular ethnic background and country into Canada, from what I am to believe.
Wealth inequality, wage stagnation, and inflation have completely disenfranchised a generation of young Canadians. It's completely unsurprising some of them have given up. The government is ultimately to blame for their inaction.
Wealth inequality is an issue to no one except Marxists.
How the hell can you blame government for wages stagflation, surely that's businesses putting the brake on ? Another factor cost of accomodation, food, energy cost s making the job not viable.
@@keithrodgers1030 How can I blame the government for wage stagnation? Easy, there's tons of examples but here's a few I can think of off the top of my head:
- Temporary foreign worker program
- no policies to avoid mass offshoring/outsourcing of domestic jobs overseas
- lacking or insufficient tariffs on cheap goods from the 3rd world
- weak laws surrounding anti-union practices by companies
- high taxes on labor and low taxes on capital.
- government policies to encourage asset inflation but not wage inflation
- high taxes and fees on small businesses
@@keithrodgers1030 Trudeau blew the biggest housing bubble in the world by encouraging laundered money to buy up all the Canadian real estate.
@@ewaste8318adding to your list, as you mentioned energy costs, there are twice as much management fees than the energy cost
Men are giving up because it's not worth it anymore.
You are what is called the soft generation of weak men. Victims.
@@DJRS2178 Actually, they're living in the hard times that weak men before created.
No just lazy

It will take them 20 years to save for a downpayment for a house. Most women are all fighting to date what they consider the top 5% of men.
Honestly, I can't blame them not wanting to work for a system that has nothing to offer them.
Not to mention the risk of divorce and a biased family court system that's against men. Young men are just being pragmatic to the reality.
There are other things in life besides owning a home, you know. Yes, it's important and home prices are an issue, but there's so much out there.
20 years for a down payment? Where is this magical place? In Vancouver the number of years is never.
Uh what? Nothing to offer? We are still the physically dominant sex and enjoy much more freedom and privilege. It had been a raw deal for women for thousands of years and two decades something work less than ideal for men, a big chunk of us just decide to sit at home. So proud to be born a man.
@@TheVampBYeah, the privilege to do hard labor and get sent to war. Only the super rich men fully enjoy those priviledges, the rest have to suffer extremely toxic environments that drive suicide rates among men three times higher than women and homeless five times higher than women.
Well isn't this the gynocentric matriarchal society the people wanted?
Well better this than Putin's Russia where you can be sent to the front and get droned for Mr alpha male.
3 words: DEI.

Education has failed starting 35 years ago. They tried to blame the changes with technology, but it was their responsibility to be on top of it, and employ teachers who have the skills to teach, not have the grades and pass the interview and tests. Now this age group will suffer their entire lives.
How is it possible that opportunities in the construction and skilled trades have declined when there’s an industry wide shortage of labour to do that work?
Because it's all bullshit designed give an excuse for mass migration and flooding the labour market with cheap labour
@@holdenmibreath3331 The government doesn't build anything. Entrepreneur's build and develop home's and all the various levels of government has made it hard to make a profit in Canada Takes years and is very expensive to get anything done in Canada.

If men stop working we go back to the Stone Age.

These are my people. Reach out to us. Create new jobs that we can adapt to. Create new ways to engage with the alienated, the disabled, and the neuro-divergent.
You tell us that you are intelligent, creative, and capable. The smartest people to ever exist. Prove to us how smart you are by finding us effective employment, integrating us, rather than just punishing us for being outsiders. We want to be someone. But the old simple carrot and stick measures are not up to scratch. We can't all do just any job.
You have been hammering square pegs into round holes, and shrugging off the splinters. Evolve.
Why hire a man when you can implement AI or use a women ?
The tactic of most businesses is to get rid of senior more expensive labour and hire young grads which are basically still learning. They may have got the paper but still lack experience of handling situations. Another factor is this do people want to sit looking at screens all day be it the computer or cell phones ?
Some young grads want to set up internet trading businesses or dabble in crypto they don't want to work for somebody.
too many newcomers to Canada
Men are going to die single now 😂
If you were hungry, you'd become employable pretty damn quick.
Worked a few stressful jobs with the metaphorically "hungry". Ate beans and toast to find somewhere that didn't have me looking for that to be my last meal.

Need answers! Here you go!
1) Experienced workers can’t return back into the workforce because companies do not want to pay them for that experience because experienced workers = higher wages that companies have to pay them.
2) Of course recent graduates have it easier to find jobs than experienced workers because companies can undercut graduates with low wages vs. paying higher wages for experienced workers.
3) Regarding NEETs, when you have expensive post-secondary education and/or expensive vocational training combine with poor job prospects then that means young people don’t want to risk student debt to graduate in a field with no future job growth or settle for a minimum wage job with student debt.
4) Young people are very sensitive and receptive to their reality, especially to how cruel reality has become for them. Humans always degrade others on trivial things just to feel superior so when a mentally fragile youngster gets a rude awakening to how brutal society can be, then they’ll shelter themselves indoors because people can control their environment indoors. They cannot control their environment when being present in society. Besides, being criticized online is not as jarring as being criticized in your face.
You got all the answers lil man.
@@theflowpowa42oshow I wish I was wrong. How can one be over-qualified for a job you applied for? And here I thought work experience was king for many hiring managers. I guess work experience is king for hiring managers at the right wage. Accept less than what you’re worth…crony capitalists.
What are they going to do when their parents die? Toughen up get out of the house and get on with it like other generations have done.
She took every problem in the west and said “this is the all young men’s problem and they can’t get jobs”
It's infuriating to watch the ignorance and the denial from mainstream media to the real problems. This will affect everyone.
I lived through this. Got laid off in November - I worked hard and got lucky and finally found a job after 216 days. It's really tough but not impossible put there - stay strong everyone!
AI automation + DEI = white men at the back of the pile
Oh yes. Video games lol.
theres no status in being a hard worker anymore. too many people making too much money for doing nothing has got the system ruined
Lol. Many people have only two choices; Get in to crazy debt in order to go college or work for wages that won't even cover basics like food and rent. It's sad that people work full-time and need to still use a credit card or ask family and friends for help. Men don't need much and believe it or not you can also make some money playing video games.
It'd be nice if the media would talk to some of these young men, as opposed to talking about them from an outside perspective...
Those dam video games. They ruined what was pinball arcades. I'm a former 6 time world pinball champion so when anyone says what Canadian won the most world championships reply me.
I am one of those men. I graduated in 2020 and Boom covid took all the jobs. didnt even get a grad ceremony. Had to take a grocery job and been there for 4 years. Signed up for Canadian armed forces to become an officer. It really hard to compete with new grads.
So why are over 1 million foreign students coming to Canada each year with work visas?
you dont need to work ..".WEF goals you will own nothing and be happy "careful how you vote
Did she say that the number of jobs in skilled trades are declining? I wonder if there are any numbers to back that up because all I hear in Ontario especially is how the market is short of trades workers. This is from the Government of Ontario website:
"In the construction sector alone, 72,000 new workers are needed by 2027 to fill open positions because of retirements and expected job growth. To help deliver the province’s infrastructure plans, including building 1.5 million homes by 2031, more people are needed in the skilled trades."
A terrible state of affairs.
AI is a bigger bubble than tulip bulb mania.
If those young men are being replaced by new comers who are easy target to be exploited, then poor young men have given up the hope.
it is pretty sad more then 60% of the guys I know are not getting married or having kids, and 30% could not be bothered to even date. As for unemployable there is tons of work like roofing windows and doors, framing they just do not want to do that work. Can you blame them you can go to collage or university spend 3-5 years and the closest you get to breaking a sweat is loading paper in the copier, with a wage that is double.
Bro people are just defeated. And the government keeps kicking us while we're down. Everybody is stopping to care.
College degree? Never heard of it.
In the US crime and dangerous mass transit are further complicating things. The main issue though is that when you squint your eyes, there are only two types of jobs. You can lift 40 pounds or do typing. It might be a shock to employers but there's a large group of people that physically can't do either of those things. Also climate change is an issue. It's way too hot most of the time for people to be going outside anymore.
Whats the point in working hard 60+hrs a week to make top 1% richer and still not being able to ever afford a home./ (rent + reliable car)
Now I know why I can’t win playing video games
I haven't won a game of League of Legends in years...
Lmao cause there smarter than we think. The system is no longer worth paying into
The pressure on young men tohave families in this cost of living crisis like in Japan may be a huge terrifying issue! Im a single mother of 2 kids and i dont have stable housing! I cant afford to take care of my kids alone. So why should men not be afraid?
The solution is so obvious. Get into the trades! There is a shortage or home builders and these young men are perfect for it.
13% unemployment for 18-26 year old summer student jobs in Ontario. Could it be the increase in immigration and increased hours for international students maybe? My kid is 10 and hes white. Im pushing him to be a life gaurd for when hes 16! I hope it works. At least he wants to join the military....plenty of jobs there!!

Yet the trades have a HUGE shortage. Also, nursing could use more men.
I took a trade and got hired before graduation. But I got an apprenticeship and now have a good life.
These young men need to man up and get a trade.

It is not AI. It is age discrimination!
It’s both why pay 3 35-50 year old when you can automate and have a 18-20 year old student or a 30 year old plus immigrant run instead for the same work and less pay.

No jobs but properties prices are going up. PC leader Pierre Poilievre is one the main problem as he owns multiple properties and the greed causing unfordable housing. I will not vote for him unless I'm very rich as his policy will help the very rich not the average middle class or low income folks.
Do you have any idea how many properties your loved ones black face and meat head have?
Schools have a “do not fail” policy (or at least in my province of NB). The economy of the school has become the priority over the quality of education. You’d think if a real education was valued, the provinces would adopt whatever country has the highest education scores methodology and build from there. Canada has a long way to go to before becoming a country worth bragging about.
Young men need to be burdened with responsibilities to help shape their minds. Duty and purpose, instead we rear children that never have to grow up. I believe the army would do a better job at turning those boys into men than the education system.
Young Canadians are busy trading meme coins and making more than a paychque at mcdonals

So, not employed, not getting educated to get employed, not getting training to get employed? So, doing nothing to better oneself in order meet the demands of the job market?
So, lazy and not too bright?
