“DISEMPLOYMENT”: Employing an existing word in a new way that is more resonant than the existing term.
Frictional unemployment:: Frictionally unemployed people are in between jobs or are students who just completed school and are looking for a job. This form of unemployment is usually short-lived in nature.
Structural unemployment :: The structurally unemployed are people who are laid off and looking for work because technology advances or other structural changes in production (for example, companies moving abroad) took away their jobs. The horse-and-buggy drivers of the early 1900s lost their jobs after the automobile became popular and affordable.
Many American steel, auto, electronics, and textile workers lost their jobs and became structurally unemployed due to foreign competition and American companies locating abroad (outsourcing). This form of unemployment (especially those due to technology advances) is usually permanent in nature. Even though these specific jobs may be gone forever, people unemployed for structural reasons can frequently find work in other industries after receiving training and acquiring other skills.
Cyclical unemployment :: Cyclically unemployed people are laid off due to a decline in the demand for their product; they are also looking for a job. During recessions, the demand for cars and houses and other durable products decreases. Workers in these industries lose their jobs until demand increases again. This form of unemployment is usually temporary in nature.
Seasonal unemployment :: Seasonally unemployed people are out of work and looking for a job during the off-season. Examples include ice cream vendors during the winter, school teachers during the summer (they are considered unemployed only if they are looking for a job during this time), and ski-lift operators during the summer.
How can we use this unfamiliar word to newly be defined as something specific in our society today?
What you don’t get, Trump supporters in 2019, is that succumbing to frustration and thinking of you as stupid may be wrong and unhelpful, but it’s also…hear me…charitable.
Because if you’re NOT stupid, we must turn to other explanations, and most of them are less flattering.
As the meeting gathered Thursday night, one of his chief critics, Sara Legvold, former member of the Texas State Republican Executive Committee, stood outside dressed in a the lobby wearing a black burqa to underscore her opposition to Shafi’s appointment.
Trump also said he doesn’t know anything about what happened to the notes taken by an interpreter when he met with Putin last summer in Finland or after other meetings with the Russian leader.
As Secretary of State Mike Pompeo crisscrossed the Middle East this week to explain the U.S. military withdrawal from Syria, he repeated that he was “confident” and “optimistic” that he was nearing a deal with Turkey on a mutually agreeable exit plan.
But a pugnacious tweet from President Trump on Sunday night vowing to “devastate” the Turkish economy if Ankara attacks U.S.-backed Kurds revealed a much wider chasm between the two sides and prompted a new round of recriminations from Turkey.
