Employers used to enjoy the greater advantage ove这个句子来自8号的华盛顿邮报;
“咱们工人有力量!”现在美国的工人也要唱这首歌了。随着美国经济的复苏和美国制造业的重新发展,美国企业对于工人需求也越来越大。曾经的弱势群体现在也成为优势群体了。这可能和特朗普的产业政策有很大的关系。还有一篇文章就明确指出,不要小看特朗普,否则还会像之前一样重蹈覆辙,特朗普可能会再次当选。特朗普最大的优势就是他在经济上取得的成绩。这就是他可能连任的资本。任何时候经济发展都是一个政府首先要关注的。当初的比尔克林顿之所以出了莱温斯基事件还能连任就是因为他真的是一把治国的好手,在他的治下,美国高科技产业奠定了全球领先地位。而现在的民主党一个能打都没有了。r employees in the job market.
雇主们过去在职场上比员工更有优势。
