Once the mortgage rates “normalize” around 5-6% the home prices will start to rise again. The kids are not going to be happy with that!

The adjustment for December was revised UP. Its feels like we are living in China where they literally just make up the stats.

“professional and business services”

Those are temp tax season jobs.

Health care keeps hiring...but there are so many openings that qualified folks are just moving from one company to the other.

Social Assistance....well, we kind of know what those folks are doing. LOL.

You must have extremely short term memory, as just about every jobs claims made in this administration has later been corrected downwards later.

Job Numbers Have Been Revised Down for Every Month This Year (2023)

So, 12 straight months of lies, and you foolishly believe 2024 numbers are magically real now? SNDH

Did Rick mention that they CORRECTED those reports to the tune of 500,000 fewer jobs, just in the last year.

Is it a Job Surge, or just another ‘playground of numbers’ for the Government agencies.

They rounded jobs down roughly 500,000 for last year, at the last second, on a friday, and quietly announced.

Every month under Biden and Obama it’s the same “Unexpectedly revised downward”, and every month it was the same “Unexpectedly revised upward” correction for the month before. It’s laughable.

The unemployment rate has meant nothing since Obama, 107 million Americans ages 18-65 aren’t looking for work and don’t count, and 60% of the illegals and greencard holders are unemployed, and don’t count either (say 40 million more).

That’s 7.2% annualized. I know my wife isn’t getting 7.2% increases.

Actually, those would fall under health care. Social advisors are helping the new immigrants...and the 12,500 UPS managers that just got whacked.

“The jobs surge”

High employment is a good thing but it can be because people take low paying jobs because they need the work badly.

I always wonder how much spending by individuals, companies and the government is being done with borrowed money.

ItS already been happening as th3 media have gotten together as 1 to declare to the unwashed masses that we are too stupid to realize how great bidenomics has been for the nation. They’ve been slowly brainwashing the low info folks and will now tu4n up the heat- gaslighting like their very jobs depended on it.

Probably programs set up to give out “freebies” to the poor/illegals/deadbeats who refuse to work even though they are healthy.

Exactly. I think Rick used whopper purposely to indicate he’s got at least one eyebrow raised.

[[Employment declined in the mining, quarrying, and oil and gas extraction industry. ]]

ThaT tends to happen when government shuts them down “in the name of climate change actions”, or makes it too expensive due to fines tax Increases and regulations. The Biden admin certainly has targett3d any type of work involving fossil fuels, causing smaller companies 2ho can’t fight to just fold up.

A lot of dems want Biden gone. This is going to make it harder to cut him loose. If we see an weirdly anemic response by the media, that’s probably why.

Can you even imagine what Biden wil be like by this fall? He’s going to need a drool bucket and eyeball tattoos on his eyelids.
