So, it looks like Senator Bernie Sanders is not happy about the recent layoffs at Xbox, and he's making his feelings pretty clear. After Microsoft announced it would be cutting 3,200 jobs while also raising the price of the Xbox by $150, Sanders highlighted the massive profits and tax breaks the company has enjoyed. He’s calling out the disconnect between corporate profits and job security, which makes sense given the current economic climate. Personally, I find it interesting that a well-known politician is focusing on gaming-related issues, showing how intertwined our industry is with larger economic discussions. It’s a stark reminder that while we enjoy our consoles, these decisions come with real-life consequences for a lot of people.
