Since the start of the Trade war...

Your god said so...that should be enough for you.

And while you're searching for that, note that it would be tough to conclude that Trump could have said real unemployment to be around 40%, when every rally he goes to, he repeats that black, Hispanic, and disabled unemployment is lowest in US history, women unemployment lowest in 65 years.

He said it before he was elected, his story changed after Nov 2016.

Trump: Unemployment Rate As High As 40%

Trump: Don't Believe Unemployment Is 5%, As High As 35, 42%

 

[protectionist]

When it was posted it was posted correctly as an estimate. The number changed as more data became available. Happens every single quarter almost without fail. If you had graduated high school you would understand what an estimate is.

Alteration scammers. As for graduating high school, I taught economics in college, and you're one of those suckers who still thinks prices will go up from a raise in the minimum wage, and layoffs will occur, across the board.

You might have cleaned the room that economics was taught in, but you are far too stupid to teach anyone anything but how to drop fries and flip a burger.

I am against any artificial minimum wage, the market not the government should decide what you are worth.

HA HA HA. Oh man, you're making this too easy for me. Oh "before he was elected" huh? Pheeew! (high-pitched whistle)

EARTH TO GG: Before he was elected, Obama was president. Trump's accomplishments on unemployment (black, Hispanic, and disabled unemployment is lowest in US history, women unemployment lowest in 65 years) CAME FROM HIM, AFTER HE WAS ELECTED. Got it ?

It wasn't his "story" that changed, it was the economy that changed. It went from a sinking ship, to a booming, healthy economy, with less business regulation, and a much reduced corporate tax.

DODGE> I was talking about the notion of prices going up, when MW goes up. In a previous thread, you remarked that they do in general, and that layoffs would occur also. What's the matter ? Changed your mind ?

No, labor force participation still really low. Only thing that changed is repubs have stopped talking about it. Just like fiscal responsibility.

Sigh...

Yes, before he was elected he said that UE numbers were lies. The day he got elected those numbers were magically not lies any more. And he says these stupid ass things because of people like you that are too fucking stupid to know you are being lied to.

Not magically. They WERE lies coming from a jihadist Muslim, living by the Koran and its TAQIYYA (lying being acceptable). YOU are you one who is too "fucking stupid" to know THAT (in addition to not being able to grasp Microeconimics 101 regarding prices and employment).

Stopped talking about it ? What the hell have YOU been listening to ? Is this how far out on the fringe CNN and MSNBC have gone now ?

There are more people working right now than ever in US history, and Republicans never miss a chance to brag about it, every single day. Go back to you fake news cocoon.

Even the Obama plants in the BEA can't hid that.

They sure aren’t talking about the labor force participation rate. Trump hasn’t mentioned since taking office...

He mentions it every day.

And why wouldn't he ? Look at the chart in Post 109.

Show me where he mentioned the labor force participation rate today.

Trump touts the same numbers that Obama did you dumbfuck. They come from the same source and they did not drop 35 points in 12 hours like you seem to believe.

The effects of an artificial minimum wage on the economy as a whole are not a Microeconomics topic, but Macroeconomics one. Thank you for proving you have never been inside a college classroom.

I see you have no idea what you're talking about. When THE FIRM (ONE company) foolishly raises it's prices, in response to tariffs, minimum wage increase, or any increased cost, that IS MICROeconomics, affecting that particular FIRM. Back to school for you. No charge for the tutoring, economics airhead.

As for unemployment >>

Yes I get you don’t understand what a rate is. Bravo.

I get you don't understand that rates are connected to numbers.

How do our economic indicators look?

GDP growth...not good and heading the wrong way
View attachment 272446

The Markets...not good, stagnant...In the 557 days of the trade war this is how they have done...

DJI up 1.59% . An annual growth rate of 1.04%
S&P up 4.33%. An annual growth rate of 2.84%
NASDAQ up 12.56%. An annual growth rate of 8.23%
SmallCap 2000 down 3.99. An annual growth rate of -2.62

Trade Deficit...no better than when we started...
View attachment 272447

National Debt...very bad

$ 1,529,671,787,835 added to the National Debt. That is an annual rate of $1,004,878,813,861.

Employment...mixed bag.

UE rate from 4.1 to 3.7. Pretty good.
LFPR from 63% to 63%...no change

Conservatives don’t care about facts.

They care only about fear, hate, and lies.

Conservatives will continue to blindly support Trump regardless the facts and truth.

And broad brushing the demographic of an entire political party isn't a point. Both sides are guilty of it. How about we stop doing that?

It is not about what one firm does moron, it is about the overall effect, not just one company. This is your problem, you think too small, which is a result of not having graduated high school.

And according to your god, UE was 42% in 2016, why does your graph not show it at 42% in 2016? Why does your graph show it at 5%?

Here is the big picture for you with UE...coming down for 8 years.
