Some guy on Fox and Friends said we added 1,000,000 jobs last year because these numbers don't account for new people entering self-employment.

Many are starting to work every morning as their own boss. Not a bad idea.

Since 50% of all businesses fail in the first 3yrs you can put that at 500,000 if that is a real number.

Some guy on Fox and Friends said we added 1,000,000 jobs last year because these numbers don't account for new people entering self-employment.

And likewise we don't know when they fall out of employment either. How many new businesses fail in the first year?

I think the government should just say "We have no idea what's going on with the economy" and get on with doing something else.
