Rick Santelli is famously a small government advocate, so it's not as though he's a Biden cheerleader. The jobs surge lessens dramatically the case for rate cuts, so it's not as though this is unalloyed good news for the administration.

The other day I was joking on another thread where I said “they” would come up with 400,000 jobs. A few of us got a chuckle out of that.

I never expected them to actually come THAT close.

This is nuts.

All I hear about, anecdotally, is how everyone is “tightening.” Figures lie and liars figure, I guess.

[Robert DeLong]

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

[G Larry]

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

[Pete Dovgan]

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).

Absolute BS... Ignore what you see, just believe what we tell you... Ministry of Truth lives.

“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.

What were the adjustments for December and November?

When is the revision

The true number

[Organic Panic]

Meanwhile 350,000 illegals walk in every month to collect welfare. These job reports mean nothing.

[Rappini]

It’s the Government’s metrics.

[LS]

Don’t buy it. ADP only had 123,000 private jobs reported.

They will revise this down by 200k in a month.

[TwelveOfTwenty]

Check the A9 report from BLS. As usual in this great economy, we lost full time jobs and gained part time jobs.

[Political Junkie Too]

Rick Santelli, the "Paul Revere" of the Tea Pary Movement, is gushing over the jobs report that critics say is made up of government-created jobs and people taking two or three part-time jobs just to make ends meet with inflation?

THAT Rick Santelli?

[OrioleFan]

Total nonfarm payroll employment rose by 353,000 in January, and the unemployment rate remained at 3.7 percent.

Doesn't the unemployment rate only consider full time jobs?
