It will probably be “revised” after the State of the Union speech. ------------------------------ Fixed it.

Did the US “add” all those jobs, or did it backfill all the jobs lost during the shamdemic? This is like Obama adding 8 million people to Obamacare but 12 million people were thrown off their policies.

Were the same rats infesting the BLS in 2017, 2018, 2019 and 2020, when the vast majority of jobs reports, with the exception of March 2020 and April 2020, showed big increases in payroll jobs?

Or were those different rats during those years?

Bingo. BLS is cooking the numbers for the SOTU. They did this for Obama too. No economic stat out f’n Joe’s admin is credible.

Remember a few months ago when they subsequently adjusted the numbers because they OVERSTATED jobs by 1 million? Same here. Here is a chart showing the nonfarm payroll numbers before and after “adjustment” by the FEDS.

Notice the difference? Biden is giving his speech next week and this is designed to give him the ammo to say things are great. Its all BULL! It will be adjusted downward afterwards, just like before.

The ONLY reason the unemployment rate dropped is because so many discouraged workers dropped out of the work force, and so are no longer counted.

Like everything now, its all BS. Look at all the layoffs cited in the linked article, yet they expect us to believe this “adjusted” payroll number? Unfortunately, many sheeple will.

I worked many a full time job with no benefits other than vacation after minimum of 1 year.

NO health benefits or sick pay.

One job is counted whenever you sell $600 worth of merchandise on Cashapp/Clearnow/Zelle/Ebay etc.
