No, the advice is to hold government accountable for helping ordinary citizens instead of making our lives worse. You can’t fucking bootstrap your way out of systemic poverty. This is not a failure of the individual.

Except it boils down to two options: a) find a job with better pay or b) no, basically a. But the AI layoffs added 10k from a several organizations so coding is pinched. And since GenAI is blocking entry-level employment because “we gave you a ‘helper’” no one is moving up. The job market is stagnant because AI is causing a pause on new reqs. I guess you could side hustle, but that isn’t an assured pump to your current income. AND that depends on your market, urban is okay, suburban is stagnant, and rural … well, you might be losing money.
