Sisyphus Class of 2026 [1]

['News Corpse', 'Mark Lippman', 'Bill In Portland Maine']

Date: 2026-06-05  

Good luck to this year’s college graduates. Like Sisyphus, you’re being asked to push not one boulder up the mountain, but two. One is a crushing load of student debt, and the other is an economy that’s replacing your jobs with AI. You studied, worked, borrowed, and earned your degree, only to enter a job market that’s shifting beneath your feet and you are represented by politicians who couldn’t care less. Good luck!
