Economy adds 266K jobs in November. Unemployment lowest in 50 years.

[jeffl1980]

Whats crazy is there are still tons of jobs out there. My wife wanted to work closer to our new home/location, so she started sending out her resume. She received 3 offer letters in the past week and a half. She starts with her new company Jan 6th.

I am happily employed and have zero plans on changing careers, but I'll receive at least 5 messages a month from recruiters. I'll entertain with an email if they sound interesting. Some are decent and some are so so. I just turned a 175k job down because it wasn't home based. I never in my life thought I'd turn down a six figure job. The economy is booming. And no matter how miserable the libs are.......life is good for those who want it!

But Rush Limbaugh and Hannity told me that is from people who are still unemployed, but have given up looking for work.

What do you do for work? I'm a low level engineer and own multiple rental properties and still don't make 170k a year.

The majority of libs on here said Trump would destroy the economy. 3 years in, its booming and it’s all Obama’s doing.

It goes without saying whose fault it'd be if the economy suddenly tanked though.

[HannoCometh]

Those "jobs" though - how well-paid are they and how long or short term are they?

[EctoCanuck]

Obama had the worst recovery from a recession...

1)It was the worst recession in American history.

2)There are over 200 nations on this planet and no nation came out of the Great Republican Recession better than America under Obama's Courageous Leadership.

3)Funny how America needs to "RECOVER" after every single Republican administration eh?

..an economy even Obama said was going to tank ...

Could you provide a link to that statement because I can't find one.

Imagine if dems actually worked with trump to make it even better.

You mean like the Republicans under Obama?

I remember Obama telling us that if we passed his stimulus, unemployment wouldnt go over 8%...Economy rebounded despite Obama. Not because of him.

No....

Ryan said the Obama administration promised "unemployment would never get to 8 percent."

Obama didn’t say that.

Workplace participation is going up, not down.

The labor participation rate is increasing as well.

As recently as April 2,000,000 Americans had dropped out of the workforce.

The number of "dropped out" increased by 14 million from 2009-2016, your dumbass forgot to hide that LOL
b.b.b.b.bb.b.b.b.but it was all Bush's fault, right?

It's also funny that you have to sweat and go out of your way to find those outdated "numbers", when the first thing that default bls.gov shows is the participation PERCENTAGE (they make it easy for ya)

Hm.... I wonder, why the fuk don't you want to take a screenshot of that.....

You can't explain it either. Member when Trump himself quoted 40% unemployment? I member.


Next Friday, the Labor Department will issue its first jobs and unemployment report of Donald Trump's presidency. Forecasters expect little change in the jobless rate, which was 4.7 percent in December. That's down from 10 percent during the depths of the recession in late 2009.

Trump repeatedly claimed during the campaign that the federal government was understating the real unemployment rate.

"Don't believe these phony numbers," Trump told supporters early last year. "The number is probably 28, 29, as high as 35 [percent]. In fact, I even heard recently 42 percent."

Trump's nominee for treasury secretary, Steven Mnuchin, echoed that sentiment during his confirmation hearing.

There is no argument for the numbers. 3.5 %. For Hispanics, it's under 5, for Blacks, under 6. Trump is going to win in a landslide

Thank Trump all you want, but you know this is really because of the Ulysses S. Grant economic initiatives launched over a century ago.

Another way I can personally tell the economy is fuking booming: sooo many temp tags on new vehicles holy fukk. Srs there are soo many people buying new cars with their solid jobs and pay raises, it looks like tax refund time everyday out here on the roads its incredible. Seriously makes me smile knowing our country's working people are kicking ass overall right now Thanks POTUS Trump, keep doing what youre doing!!

Didn't you moutbreathing leftards used to excuse Obama's atrocious numbers because the babyboomers were retiring? "b.b.b.b.b.b.b.but the adults are retiring this why the labor force participation drops, all Bush's fault!"

Yeah, so much for that argument when President Trump is currently right in the epicenter of baby boomers retiring but STILL manages to raise the participation by 0.5%. This is what happens when you have a very stable genius in the office.



And lastly, it's up to you if you want to quit your job today and spend the rest of your life rotting on the couch. Nobody is going to judge you, and nobody is going to force you to work, as long as you don't sit on welfare

Under Hussein Obummer, 10.7 million (33.5% increase) more Americans were on food stamps. Lazy leftist parasites quit their jobs and started leeching off the hardworking conservative taxpayers! Nice strategy! Thanks Obama!

Under President Trump, the number of leeches dropped by 6.4 million (15.1% decrease compared to Obama)

Thank you President Trump!

Aging baby boomers. Millenials are starting to replace their output tho. Which isnt really Trumps doing. Just basic demographic ms shifting. With that said, Trumps policies for businesses large and small have been very effective.

2010 was Obama's first full budget year and 2017 was his last budget year. What do you see...



18,000,000 new jobs!!!

800,000 Americans a month were losing their jobs when Obama took the keys from the Borrow and spend Republicans. No US President has been as successful as Obama. PERIOD!!!

And...



Black unemployment was 7% when Obama's last budget expired on Sept.30/2017.

Trump has been riding Obama's tailcoat since he was elected. That will come to an end soon...

2017 Obama's last budget year Jethro...

The 2017 United States federal budget is the United States federal budget for fiscal year 2017, which lasted from October 1, 2016 to September 30, 2017. President Barack Obama submitted a budget proposal to the 114th Congress on February 9, 2016. The 2017 fiscal year overlaps the end of the Obama administration and the beginning of the Trump administration.

I wouldn't expect a conservative to know that, I've been told they don't teach civics or Poli-Sci in trailer park schools, or hygiene from what I've seen.

A record 96,233,000 Americans were out of the labour market in April 2019. Conservatives were screaming "94 million Americans are out of the job market!" when Obama was President. I haven't heard one single conservative scream "96 million Americans are out of the job market!" since Trump was elected(by Putin).

While I'm here...

[reinsdorfsucks]

The headlines of the employment report deserve celebration, with 266,000 new jobs created last month, including 54,000 in manufacturing. But the details reveal even better news for the U.S. workforce. For example, the quality of the increases matches the quantity of new hires, as yearly earnings exceeded 3% growth for the 16th consecutive month, a mark seen in only three months, total, during the Obama years. In addition, those wage gains now flow overwhelmingly to workers previously left behind. For example, blue-collar wage growth exceeded white-collar wage growth; non-college grads outperformed those with degrees; and black incomes surpassed those of whites.

It's also pretty sweet that this growth is actually for workers, and not just wall street (transfer of wealth to the 1% under Obama).

What many don't understand is that manufacturing/industrial jobs create other jobs. They also create wealth. They are called REVENUE PRODUCING segments. Producing a product, providing a service, creating a value. All other jobs are either in support of those jobs or they are simply just money changing hands, but nothing is actually produced, such as sales. If someone works in a factory, raw materials are turned into a product. $10 worth of material is now worth hundreds of dollars and that product has a function. Those workers will then spend their money around other businesses.

That quote from Real UnClear Politics isn't even close to being true. Wage growth was negative -5.88% when Obama became President and hit plus +8% by his third budget year...



DAMN!!! Is there anything Obama couldn't do???
