I find the jobs report to be fairly worthless like the Dow Jones index. Doesn’t tell the whole story. But hey, 45,000 of the 273,000 increase were government jobs. The biggest increase was in health and social assistance, 57,000. I’m betting few were brain surgeons, more like bed pan changers. Next biggest was in food service and drinking places, 53,000. That’s where you get sent home when customers don’t show up. Few awesome benefits in that category. Employment in other major industries, including mining, manufacturing, wholesale trade, retail trade, transportation and warehousing, and information, changed little over the month. Wasn’t that the category that the current administration was supposed become a game changer?a fan wrote: ↑Fri Mar 06, 2020 5:46 pm And you weren't rooting for Obama to fail, right?
Republicans intentionally stalled all legislation----including spending-----for six years, simply to stick it to Obama.
Not only did that not bother you, you cheered them on. And there are sailors at the bottom of the ocean because of McConnell's craven politics.
The instant Trump gets into power? Out comes the checkbook, and Republicans make government bigger than ever, pumping trillions of dollars through the economy. And then you come along and cheer this big government economy that is entirely borrowed.
I don't get it. I don't get why you're not mad about this massive spending spree.
Average hourly earnings of private-sector production and nonsupervisory employees increased by 8 cents to $23.96 with a average workweek of 34.4 hours. That’s $824.22/week before deductions. That’s living large in the growth regions isn’t it?
