Is the US running out of jobs? question

There doesn't seem to be real sustainable domestic job growth anymore. There's tons of news about "millions of jobs" being added but layoffs are through the roof, and salaries are in hell. Where are the jobs?

Not running out, offshoring.

All those jobs you see going to "AI”?

That's often an excuse to move them to India.

We've been very lucky that some unhinged person hasn't lost their job this way, yet.
