    All those people with multiple jobs should stop being greedy and lend some out.

    After all, if you’re not thriving in this economy you’re a loser, right @HHusky

    Sooooo you're saying this is bad news? I know you guys are living in Fantasy Land where no one ever gets laid off. To my knowledge, this statistic has never been at 0.

    I don't expect the two Duck Dipshits on the Tug to understand anything. I'm surprised they can tie their own shoes to be honest. But you Husky fans are a lot smarter than that.

    There's always going to be people movement. That's absolutely good news that you have SOME movement. You can't help that. That number coming in lower is good news.

    Same argument with inflation. 2-3% is what you strive for. If you guys are cheering for 0% inflation or negative inflation.....well....lets just say you're as smart as the dipshit Duck fans on this board.

    Who said 3% is what we strive for?

    Economy was fine four years ago, interest rates were low, as was inflation

    We needed a virus to cheat in the election and install a moron. Now we can take credit for all the jerbs that were "added," that we eliminated because of CASES AND DEATHS

    Not so good in some neighborhoods with dem mayors and George Soros prosecutors and dem state legislatures.

    Walgreeen's Shuts Down Four Locations in Majority-Black Roxbury, Boston, and Local "Activists" Are Outraged at the "Corporate Greed" of People Not Wanting to be Robbed Blind Every Single Day
    —Disinformation Expert Ace
    As this CBS "journalist" summarizes the issue: "Why do you think Walgreen's is targeting black and brown neighborhoods?"

    She refuses to ask anyone about rampant looting putting this store out of business.

    In Matt Walsh's recap, he points out that Walgreen's doesn't expressly mention crime, although crime is very much a factor in Roxbury Walgreen's. Matt Walsh runs a clip of a cop talking about the rampant shoplifting, and the utter uselessness of even making an arrest, because of the DA's policy of absolutely refusing to prosecute any "non-violent misdemeanor," for any reason. He mentions one case of the same woman robbing the same store three times in one day. The cops only bothered arresting her "out of exasperation," but she won't be prosecuted. They merely slowed her crime spree down for a couple of hours.

    Credit card debt is once again at an all-time high.

    Tends to happen in a weak economy.

    It's not necessarily bad news. It's just that this statistic is 100% completely worthless in terms of measuring economic improvement. At least, that was what the Democrats said during the GWB admin. Should we not have listened to them? Were they full of shit then? Or are they full of shit now?

    Fender once saw his political opposites saying something stupid about the economy. Now he has questions about whether stupid still equals stupid.

    I 100% agree with you Fender. When Trump got that unemployment rate to 3.5, I was also defending this metric on that end. But i'll also defend it now from peeps who were praising it when Trump was president then and who are magically dismissing it now.

    All the other economic metrics were also showing a strong economy with real wage growth for private sector working Americans before March 2020. The current economic metrics now suck for working Americans. These metrics are what you and the dazzler choose to ignore or you are to stupid to understand them. You leftards own the blue state and blue city lockdowns that put 20 million Americans out of work, shut down public schools for a year plus along with the vaccine passports, mask and vaxx mandates.
    Real wages have grown year over year almost without interruption for the entirety of the 21st Century so far. Obviously we need to get Daddy back in office because of the spectacular job he did in not fucking that up. We're in a labor shortage, Gasbag, with an economy that is doing too well to suit the Fed. There are losers (Daddy voters) though, in any economy.

    Here's a thought....if they have to tap into their retirement accounts to get Sugar Bowl tix.....maybe they shouldn't go?? If you're making dumb decisions like this, that explains why you're financially strapped?? You think? What other dumb decisions are you making?

    Because they're pulling money from their retirement accounts to go to the Sugar Bowl according to the dumb as dirt Oregon fan. Those are the dumb decisions putting them in that predicament.

    Bob you seem like you have your finances in order, are you racking up high credit card bills or pulling from your retirement account to do this stuff?

    Labor participation rate is still down since January 2020 and not trending well. Couldn't find a chart on the Sugar Bowl participation rate which is the gold standard of course for the status of the economy.


    Same game as under Obama.

    The unemployment rate is so low! If you don't count all the people who are long term unemployed.
    So is Labor Participation up since January 2021? According to that chart it looks like its trending upwards just like it was doing under Trump.

    Here's what Labor Participation rate did from when Trump was in office, to Janurary 2020 which was right before pandemic hit

    Trump:
    Jan 2017. - 62.8
    Jan 2020 - 63.3

    Biden:
    Jan 2021 - 61.5
    Now - 62.5


    This is why I call you Oregon fans dumb as dirt. You can't intrepret a chart.
