Anyone Notice the Economy Added 312,000 New Jobs in December, and the Other Good Economic News?

[Uncensored2008]

Did anyone catch the news that in December the economy added 312,000 new jobs? Here's the Department of Labor's employment situation summary for December:

Employment Situation Summary

The report also notes the following:

* 32,000 new manufacturing jobs were created last month, and 284,000 new manufacturing jobs were created in 2018. That was the biggest increase since 1995 (Job gains for the manufacturing industry in the last 12 months are the most since 1995).

* The number of long-term unemployed people dropped by 205,000 in 2018.

* The number of people employed part-time for economic reasons dropped by 329,000 in 2018.

* 142,000 people voluntarily left their jobs to look for better jobs. This indicates that these workers believed they had a good chance of finding a better job, which would not be the case if they did not believe the economy was doing better than before.

* The number of "discouraged workers" dropped by 99,000 in 2018.

CNN, the NY Times, Amazon.Com Post (with pictures of Jeff Bezos' penis), and NBC sure the hell weren't going to report on the booming economy...

higher paid labor can afford to pay more in taxes and create more in demand.

Where should the poor live? In government controlled housing or private?

solving for simple poverty means the homeless could apply for unemployment compensation at the equivalent to fourteen dollars an hour for simply being unemployed.

with the law of large numbers working for us; the private sector should be much more efficient and we should need less public sector housing.

So we should pay people that don’t want to work 14 an hour? Who’s going to pay them?

it is more cost effective than means tested welfare and would reduce the need for welfare fraud.

unemployment compensation funding is being collected already. more people spending more money will result in more consumption taxes being paid and more demand being created.

Why not end all welfare and let people survive on there own? What made America great

it is immoral. Promoting the general welfare not the general warfare or general badfare is what we are supposed to be doing.

We still have over 7 million unfilled jobs. Why aren’t those jobs being filled?

No worries, Trump is on it!

How much welfare did we have in 1776?

* 142,000 people voluntarily left their jobs to look for better jobs. This indicates that these workers believed they had a good chance of finding a better job, which would not be the case if they did not believe the economy were doing better than before.

Your other claims were fine but you are way off here.
142,000 is the net change in people who left their job and are now looking for a new one. We do NOT know why they left....whether it was to find a better job, or just find any other job, or they quit before they got fired, or they quit to take care of their family, or even if they retired and are just looking for a part time job.

Wrong. The report specifically mentions that it defines "job leavers" as people who leave work and immediately start looking for a new job:

"Job leavers are unemployed persons who quit or otherwise voluntarily left
their previous job and immediately began looking for new employment."

In addition, I neglected to mention what the report says about wages. I quote:

"In December, average hourly earnings for all employees on private nonfarm payrolls rose 11 cents to $27.48. Over the year, average hourly earnings have increased by 84 cents, or 3.2 percent."

A 3.2% pay hike is not bad at all.

None at all.

At that time the meaning probably wasn't even the same. No one could have fathomed that creatures such as leftists that exist only to parasite of rest of the society could exist.

That doesn’t contradict what I said. It’s still a net change not the gross number of job leavers, and there is nothing about the reason for leaving.

"Job leavers are unemployed persons who quit or otherwise voluntarily left
their previous job and immediately began looking for new employment."

And where does it say it’s because they thought they could get a better job? It doesn’t. You inferred it. Improperly. My nephew quit his job recently. Not because he thought he could get a better job but because he’s an idiot teenager who got annoyed at his supervisor. He started looking immediately and took a job that paid less per hour and with fewer hours.

Nope. We didn't notice it because a crazy person shut down the government to pitch a Wall to memorialize his hate... that's why we missed it.

People who make up lies about undocumented immigrants killing people.

Don't worry, if you get murdered, it will probably be by someone you know. Most people are.

Having a lewd, crude, lying, crying, autocratic, narcissistic, greedy, clumsy Robber Baraon at the helm outweighs the few good things happening.

Everything you just stated is based purely on your FEELINGS.

Good economic news > feelings every day of the week.

Your position is juvenile and incredibly absurd

Have you ever credited Obama with overseeing a great improvement in the US economy?

 

[80zephyr]

Manufacturing jobs are up 714% under Trump compared to Obama.
