Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen cautioned Friday that the U.S. faces a “long road” to economic recovery but described the latest jobs report from the Department of Labor as an indication the country is making progress.
“We knew it would be a long road back to the recovery. That’s why the legislation provided lasting support rather than just a few months of relief. We knew this would not be a 100-day battle,” Yellen said at a White House press briefing. “Today’s jobs report underscores the long haul climb back to recovery.”
The U.S. economy added 266,000 jobs during the month of April and the unemployment rate rose to 6.1 percent, according to the Labor Department. The numbers came in far below economists’ expectations.

Long road?
Ha! Po people, women and children hit hardest from the inflation bubble...
What has happened to America? Has it lost its virility and vitality? Why are all these demented, old ladies in positions of power and influence. Yellen, Pelosi, Harris, Einstein, Chaney, Warren, Kagan, Sotomayor, Waters, Whitmer, Jarett, Rice, Murray, Duckworth, Hikono and many more estrogen depleted vile fools.
Of course. Why go back to flipping burgers for $325 a week when the federal and state goverments ladle $650 a week in gravy into your bank account? My step-daughter tried the same thing - enhanced unemployment as far as the eye could see, plus a kicker for her two kids when she and her husband got COVID checks. Her mother and I told her to get off her dime and go get her old job back.
Dem hanging curve that any Pubbie with one eye and half sense should be able to knock out of the park.
Child care evidently wasn’t a problem when unemployment was at historical lows under Trump…
Tshyaah!
We have to wait for Trump to be in charge.
Standard dem propaganda. Where’s the part about our best days are behind us.
Not if Trump was in charge. We’d be crushing it right now.
Unexpectedly.
Wait a few weeks for them to revise the numbers down, they way they do with Democrats, the opposite of the way they do with Republicans.
I think we all know that Trump would have this economy under control and that we all would be more confident.
Especially long with the policies of Bidet and the ho.
Bozo-joe and crew will only make it longer.
Meaningless drivel.
Off with her head.
Translation: The fed will continue to keep interest rates low to shield their lackey in the White House. Means higher markets propped up on false pretenses. You can’t give people money to stay home and expect the jobs market to go up.
And the colored girls go, du tee du tee du. Wild side
Yep , Democrats destroy everything they touch
Yes because of the artificial shutdowns that was sold to the American public as “two weeks only”.
It was a big lie and they have never let it go since.
Slurpee, anyone?
National Malaise II.
China is just playing with the USA,,,,As Andrew Lang the author stated in his book that China’s economy is tanking is right but what he failed to note is; so is the US economy. China’s only hope is for our economy to tank before China does. If the US economy tanks first the Chinese will try to install the Yuan as the World Reserve Currency. That is of the most importance and savior for the Chinese and they start with Taiwan and that will be their justification for starting a possible conflict and Joe will back down even if it means replacing the US Dollar as the World’s Reserve Currency.
A long road back to recovery will be five years if we can get Trump or another good Republican back in office and give them a year to recover the economy. We won’t get it with this administration.
