IIRC almost all the new jobs are part-time
True....plus a bunch of other administration-influenced fiddling. My point was that we should pull an “Obama” on Obama - start taking credit for the decreasing unemployment rates. When the Pubs do that, this lying crap from Obama’s agencies will stop. Guaranteed.
Digging through the numbers at BLS.gov (and you really have to be a forensic accountant, which I am not, to effectively do so) it looks like 208,000 of the jobs were part time.
Thats not good.
What I’m having trouble finding are the breakouts by age. In past months the gains have been largely with older workers needing to go back to work to make ends meet.
