Illegals and Government workers are counted, which skew the total jobs gains. Reminds me of the old saying ‘Figures never lie, but Liars figure.
To: fwdude
If the administration were manipulating the numbers, they’d have generated milder, not stronger, growth. At this point, this robust growth only serves to delay the Fed easing rates at this point.

Are they Americans and were they hired by the private sector?

The job numbers, even if manipulated, are what most people look at for believing that the economy is performing. The inflation rate and how it affects mortgage rates and the overall economy, don't impress people and generally don't understand it. So, going with 'jobs growth' is easier for people to digest, and democrats are experts at manipulating people, though the jobs numbers are manipulated and will be adjusted downwards next month.

“The propaganda machines are churning at top speed.”
The entire government is weaponized against the people of the United States. We the people can’t even get real numbers from the US government, it’s all propaganda all the time. Yes, they eventually ‘correct’ the numbers when the headlines pass. Just like they did to keep Obama in power, they use the same propaganda to keep Biden lie about the economy going.
These people also need to answer for their crimes. They need to out the people that ordered them, and resign from Government. Once again, using public money to lie and distort facts for political agendas doesn’t serve the people. It’s seditious.

Meanwhile the U.S. national debt is racing towards $35 trillion.
To: Miami Rebel
They just lowered 2023 monthly new job estimates by 60,000 per month because of “errors” in measurements. I don’t think there is very much faith in these numbers by those in the know.

Watch for significant revisions in July when everyone is preoccupied with vacations.
