Economy in crapper with record high employment.

haha you mean i’m not indoctrinated with your cult mind?

You aren’t smart enough to know you’re indoctrinated.

I blame the Democrats for this country's egregious fiscal, transportation, and inflation issues. For the rest of my life, if Democrats want to shoot themselves in the foot, fine, let 'em. But no aiming at my foot any more.

I blame COVID for inflation. Everyone who is rational does.

Uh, no.. Actually, the Labor Participation rate before the TRUMP RECESSION hit was 63.4%. At the worst point it hit 60.8% It currently stands at 62.3.

Now, the Labor Participation Rate (Because you don't seem clear on the concept) is the percent of the population that is gainfully employed or seeking work. It hit a high of 67% in 2001 and has been declining slowly ever since, with a sharp drop in 2011 when the baby boomers started retiring.

During the prosperous times of the 1960's, the LPR was only 58%. It started rising in the 1970's when Boomers started entering the workforce AND when women were more likely to pursue careers rather than just be homemakers!

Now, there are some other factors to consider here. One is that Covid made people really reconsider their relationship with work. Some people found it was better to economize and have one parent stay home than to have both work and pay for daycare.

Trump didn't throw the nation into depression. He worked hard for and won success for employment in high-paying jobs, even if the new employee was unemployed for a long time. He got a lot of people back to work, and they liked it because it beat the hard times they had on the government dole.

Workers are getting smarter. Avoiding rotten employers. Emoyers are you g to need to up their game to attract people. This is a positive trend

I really wished you had worked in this century so you could see how wrong you are!

Most of us are over there and employment now sucks. Biden is thinking about his next schema to get richer than he is now, and he doesn't give a damn about poor people he invited to come over the border. His ilk doesn't want them on their Martha's vineyard, and I don't see him opening his 5 front doors on all those mansions he owns to welcome illegal aliens to sleep in a bed. He's a damn miser.

He might invite an illegal minor to his bed...

Flags go up around school teachers.

If they're not indoctrinating they're grooming

STFU moron! You couldn't teach a fish to swim!

He's too dementia ridden to notice

 

[Superbadbrutha]

sure because to maintain profits they are going to have to let people go....this isn't rocket science

Why do they need to let folks go? They are making record profits with them.

That’s a real non sequitor.

Anyway, I’m sure the Republican answer would be tax cuts for rich and bailouts for corporations because that’s what’s going to help working class people.

 

[Marener]

Last two quarters were negative 1.6% and 0.6%. It’s hardly earth shattering lack of growth. These are tiny numbers.

Yeah, we definitely need people to produce less and consume more over their lifetime.

What could go wrong?

People are producing more than ever. Forcing them to work longer is horrific.

 

[Admiral Rockwell Tory]

That's the problem...they are intelligent people who have become lazy due to years of a steady paycheck, great health benefits and teaching the same subject year after year.

Lousy paycheck, no great benefits, and not teaching the same subject year after year is actually the norm.

You sound like a typical CEO. Lazy indeed.

You need to either lay off the drugs or see a doctor to get some.

What products are people producing more?

People are producing more than ever.

That's why GDP fell while employment increased.
Was Winco your math teacher?

Forcing them to work longer is horrific.

Who said anything about forcing them?

Teenagers. Can't expect them to use logic.

I'm sick of anyone with a secure, taxpayer supplied salary saying Trump is a crook.

You don't believe in freedom of speech? You must be a liberal at heart.
