"Governments change, the lies stay the same"
Peter Schiff is a jackass and Trump-hater.
Not such a reversal at all by Trump.
Under President Obama, the unemployment rate fell simply because American citizens abandoned the search for good jobs. There was growth in the number of jobs, but this barely kept pace with the two million immigrants, legal and illegal, coming to America annually, and the demographic growth of the working-age population.
Under President Trump, the net flow of immigrants has virtually halted. The working-age population, in fact, is now declining. And yet, job growth still persists at more than two million per year and may, in fact, be accelerating. Yet the unemployment rate is barely budging? This is because the ridiculously inflated employment rate is becoming less and less inflated.
To oversimplify: Trump’s job growth is coming from Americans re-entering the work force; Obama’s was from immigrants taking American jobs as Americans left from despair.
How is it a reversal? Trump is clearly making some REAL progress. Consumer confidence, deregulation, and the potential of true tax cuts is boosting jobs.
NONE of that was present during Hussein’s seizure of power.
This seems to be apple and oranges, doesn’t it?
Peter lies. Trump has pointed out that he still thinks the numbers are flawed even though they have changed for the better. I’ve seen it on video.
It’s the methodology behind the government numbers that is flawed, not the fact that unemployment is lower.
If we wanted liberal BS we would have voted for liberal BS...
How is the WPR?
I think it was at Trump’s last rally, or one of the most recent rallies, he was talking about the job numbers. After he announce the jobs numbers, he said something like “We know the numbers aren’t accurate, but that’s all we have to go on.”
Construction in TX should be good and we have another hurricane on the way (hopefully it’ll hit Mexico) but how many of the jobs created are FuLL TIME? They didn’t repeal obamacare which created the part time jobs.
Retail stores are closing because of online ordering but some are being offset by Amazon & Walmart battling for $. Have those who were out of work and off the books gone back to work? Are the useless bachelor’s degree recipients going to work? Are the jobs left behind by the illegal now emigrants being filled?
Can Trump have the numbers tell the truth? Isn’t it a government dept giving out the numbers?
