Come work for a week in a plant. We make shit wages, work way too hard for it, and see the economy as grocery bills being double what they were a few years ago. Most of us struggle to make ends meet. I can’t blame those that would cross a picket line to make $2 more per hour for less work.
The unemployment rate is a terrible way to gauge how the job market is.
I don’t doubt any of what you are saying and I support you. However “this economy” isn’t the problem. This current economy has been fueling the first expansion of union membership in decades. That doesn’t mean it’s going to help every worker in every industry, but that’s due to industry specific factors, not the economy as a whole.
I don’t know your industry, and I don’t know what Biden might have done or not done to impact your situation. All I’m saying is that the broader economy isn’t the issue.
