Yes, It's even difficult to find people to remodel or repair homes.

Too many businesses are finding it difficult to hire employees. Allowing more illegals into the country to fill the employee gap is NOT the answer..

I've heard people actually say, "I'm not going back to work when I can make more money sitting at home."

WOW, almost like people were not paid enough to begin with, sure people don't want to work if they are not paid what their work is worth

To many people are bringing more in on unemployment then they were in their paychecks or for some it's about the same as they were making when working but on unemployment the benefit is they get to stay home for the same amount of money and for some they gained the benefit of no daycare costs.

Yes, but this is not as bad as what it sounds like. Unemployment benefits can help with frictional unemployment. In addition, it can allievate cyclical unemployment social costs that increase with joblessness, like crime, discouraged workers leaving the labor force, family health etc.

Bring on the mean tweets, and shut up sit down, you are fake news rant to the so called journalists at press conferences. Good times are here again. And can someone get FEMA to help, the liberal tears are causing a flood!

Absolutely surprised. MO continuously votes for progressive amendments and propositions to improve their lives, but then votes in the people most likely to enrich themselves at the cost of their constituents. This is what 40 years of republicans attacking public education does.

You could print the successes of the Biden/Harris administration on a post-it note with a paint brush, and not use all of it.
