WASHINGTON (MarketWatch) - The number of Americans who filed requests for jobless benefits fell by a scant 1,000 last week to 367,000, the U.S. Labor Department said Thursday. Claims from two weeks ago were revised up to 368,000 from 365,000. Economists surveyed by MarketWatch had projected claims would total 365,000 on seasonally adjusted basis in the week ended May 5.

Looking beyond this headline, having trouble finding “new” in this week’s headlines on this anywhere. It’s in some articles, but, not all of them either. How dumb do they think people are?
I knew it!!! They revised last week’s up, so they could report the claims dropped.
Just amazing.
There aren’t so many people who have a job. So the number who lose jobs necessarily falls.

Your observation is spot on, Government can’t create jobs, it can only spend money that must first be earned in the private sector.
There are no new ideas, Democrats have avoided the simple economics of improving the private sector and spent the money, wasting the job opportunities that would have been created in the private sector.
Yeah government jobs, non profit jobs( government grants), government contractors ( again from more government funding), all these “Jobs” produce nothing but trillions in more debt which will lead to U.S. collapse.
I hate Owebama and it’s 5 trillion that it piled on top of us (U.S).
