Wow look! Full employment makes "unemployable" people very employable. And it has tremendous ability to combat racial inequality.

*This* is why we launched Fed Up. Full employment is the most powerful public policy that exists for improving lives.

By empowering workers to quit if they want, full employment:
Raises wages,
reduces inequality,
combats racial discrimination,
promotes gender equity,
reduces sexual assaults/harassment,
stabilizes schedules,
facilities unionization,
reduces depression&suicide
Enhances skills.
I know there's no such thing as a panacea, but I think that's a pretty unparalleled list of benefits that come as a result of one policy intervention!
