272,000 new jobs, after a prediction of 165-180,000. Terrible isn't it? | ||

There was an article out this morning correlating immigration surges with job availability. No surprise, but how do you keep them OUT? What if Muricans don't want those jobs? Give me a home where the buffalo roam and I'll show you a house full of buffalo shit. | |||

The majority of new jobs were in lower paid groups and part time jobs that don't really contribute much to economic growth. I would be more concerned with the household survey showing a loss of 400,000 jobs last month. That may contribute to the unemployment rate going up to 4.00%. | |||

Republicans obviously have an interest in bad-mouthing, finding negative things to say, about the economy. Republican was once synonymous with conservative. Today the two terms aren't the same at all. Republican is now synonymous with Trumpism. To their lasting shame. | |||

I have NEVER heard a republican dissect & complain about job increases under any GOP president. NEVER. | |||

It rarely comes up, they mostly lose jobs and increase deficits. Look at job creation by Presidency since Reagan: Reagan- +2.06% The Republican high point since 1980. Bush the Elder- +.61% Clinton- +2.4% Bush the Lesser- +.13% Obama- +1.04% Trump- -.51% Like losing money running a casino, the only President since 1939 to lose jobs. Biden- Not a complete term yet, but on pace for 3.25%+ "If you’re innocent why are you taking the Fifth Amendment?”- Donald Trump | |||

I idly wonder what goods those jobs produce?[/QUOTE]
Link[/QUOTE] So, as to what those new jobs produce, basically squat. They are mostly just spending increases. Smoke and mirrors, which is what governments always give us. This applies to governments from either side of the aisle, by the way. There are no real fiscal conservatives. The way it works is: The left wingers tax the hell out of the middle class, then use that money to pay for their pet projects and reward their wealthy supporters. The right wingers tax the hell out of the middle class, then use that money to pay for their pet projects and reward their wealthy supporters. Both sides then blow smoke up our collective asses and tell us how great things are. The amazing thing is the middle class is pretty evenly divided. Half loves getting screwed by one party, while the other half loves getting screwed by the other party. I do have to say, Trumpism throws a bit of a wrench into the works. His followers follow him rather than any particular ideology. He's a deficit spender, just like anyone else, yet his followers are convinced of his fiscal conservatism. They believe he is a law and order proponent. They believe everything he has to say. Weird. Regards, Bill. | |||

I see your point, but what do Trump's numbers look like if you exclude the government mandated shutdown of the economy, which was a bipartisan exercise (part of which I attribute to Trump). Biden's increase is purely due to the Covid pandemic. Start in a hole, and anything is up. He had nothing to do with it, and probably has held it back compared to competent leadership (ie anyone before Trump.)

Wrong. Those are NEW jobs, after the pandemic recovery. | |||

They are new jobs (really new hirings) from 1/6/21 to present.- essentially from whatever the number was when Biden took office (1Q 2021) to I assume, 2Q 2024 depending on how they tabulated things with dates. If you were laid off in early 2020, but rehired due to Covid restrictions easing in 2022 you were counted as a new job when you returned to work. You are part of that 3.25%. | |||

These are damn sure not people being rehired after being laid off from a pandemic years ago. That boat sailed a long time ago. | |||

I can't make you read the links I posted but go ahead and refute the data. If you can. 'New' jobs have all gone to illegals. The data, charts and info is concise here. Another one: https://www.zerohedge.com/mark...il&utm_campaign=2784 Excerpt:

Ann, the problem with establishing a clear track record as a liar, and posting links to known fabricators and ideologues, is that nothing you say or post can be relied on at face value; every assertion, every detail has to be exhaustively researched and fact-checked to identify the inevitable lies and pure fabrications. Knowing that the lies and fabrications form the basis for whatever conclusions you or your conspiracist sources draw from the mishmash of half-truths presented, the logical assumption is that anything you say or refer to is mostly bullshit. To any thinking person you have forfeited all credibility; you lie as habitually as Trump does. "If you’re innocent why are you taking the Fifth Amendment?”- Donald Trump | |||

It's a bifurcated economy, but that's true most of the time. Those with $$$ can still afford housing and are even doing relatively well with their cash position compared to when rates were say 2%. There have always been second tier citizens economy-wise and there always will be. What do they expect Biden to do for them? Trump likely would raise Tariffs on Chinese imports passing the cost onto them. Drill baby drill won't help when refining capacity is the limiting factor and oil prices are world set. Maybe he could find a way to bring in another virus and get oil down to $5 per barrel. Give me a home where the buffalo roam and I'll show you a house full of buffalo shit. | |||

Ann, do you EVER check anything out before shooting off? I doesn't appear that you do.... "Zero Hedge is a far-right libertarian financial blog and news aggregator1. It was founded by Daniel Ivandjiiski, a Bulgarian-born, U.S.-based former investment banker and capital-markets trader2. The blog's reputation is controversial due to its spread of financial theories considered conspiratorial or incorrect by most economists." | |||
