Fuzzy Math
I am not very good at math.
Can someone explain that how adding 117,000 new jobs/mo (good news) when it takes 157,000 or more/mo to keep up with the population growth causes the unemployment rate to *drop*? |

Fleabaggers have a weird way of polishing turds. And assuming zero population growth, that is about a 20 year recovery not including that new jobs pay less than old jobs lost. Bottom line, bad news. This is typically the good time of year for employment, wait until Sept/Oct. -- Seems like paying your bills with real money is no longer the accepted behavior in USA. Perhaps that is the problem and not the the solution. |
