Some funny things with the chart. No way that private workers were getting higher pay cuts than government workers during the covid peak. Over 20 million private sector workers were laid off while millions of government workers were getting 12 months of vacation pay.

All those useless government turds they are hiring are just paid demonrat voters.

But hey, maybe their stock will rise in Q3 & Q4, so it's all good.
Nevermind Main Street and the jobs on it.
@HuskyBuck, since you are so optimistic about Bidenomics, now would be a good time to purchase a lot of commercial real estate defaults from banks and you’ll be worth tens of millions once companies start leasing space from your properties in massive numbers again. -
How many years does Bidenomics need to get the LPR back to where Trump had it at the beginning of 2020?
Since it’s germane to the discussion let’s count the 2020/Covid beneficiaries.- DNC
- Biden Family
- Big Pharma
- Blackrock
- Anthony Fauci
- BLM
- Transgender advocacy groups
- Medline
- Johnson and Johnson
- Kimberly Clark
- Green Energy
- WHO
- WEF
Nice list of winners coming out of the worst 2 year stretch this country has faced since the Great Depression.

I didn't see US public school children, small private sector businesses or US energy consumers on your list. Did I miss it? I was assured that the kiddies, working Joe's and middle and lower class consumers of essential products were high on the dems priority list.

those were the biggest losers.
KidsSBOs
Middle class tax payers
Don’t forget to mask up, get vaxxed, and keep voting blue! -
a few weeks ago, “hundreds” of White House staff either did or were going to walk out in support of Hamas. The Dem Media stopped covering it as I imagine someone pointed out the hundreds of staffers leaving yet not affecting WH business would tell a rational person that those are “hundreds” of high-paying yet unnecessary government jobs to be eliminated.

Families with kids are fucking “losers” if the parents can’t get rich during the Bidenomics Boom.

353,000 added jobs crushing expectations! Job gains adjusted upward for November and December as well!!! Someone told me those get adjusted downward, what happened??????
Lets go Brandon indeed.

It’s adorable you believe government statistics.
Now do “covid” deaths.
-
Numbers are wicked!

Funny how these guys have zero problem with these government statistics when it favors Trump then they move to fantasy land when it favors Biden.

Remember when the flu death count was down 90% three years ago. It was so weird!!!!

Lol christ. "The unemployment rate held steady at 3.7%, against expectations for a slight increase."
!!!!

It's called "full employment".
Now spin it as a disaster to benefit Orange Jesus.

Does unemployment rate count people not looking for work?
The unemployment rate measures the share of workers in the labor force who do not currently have a job but are actively looking for work. People who have not looked for work in the past four weeks are not included in this measure.
I'm sure these numbers are quite a bit higher in real life and commies not cooking books.

Oh, well if you’re sure I guess that settles it.

The spike in wages, however, has left more than a few economists unconvinced.
Other measures of worker compensation, including the more reliable employer cost index, show a pronounced deceleration in pay.
What happened in January? Cold weather prevented more people from working than usual, mostly in lower-paying service jobs.
If those people aren't counted, hourly earnings could be skewed by higher-paid employees.
"January saw stronger than expected wage growth, probably because winter weather shortened the average workweek for lower-paid hourly workers," said chief economist Bill Adams of Comerica Bank.
If Adams and other skeptics are right, the wage gains in January are likely to unwind in February.

Per a lender I know and trust.
The 353k number is an “adjusted” number. The BLS uses an obscure formula to adjust for population changes and seasonal factors among others. But look at the raw non-adjusted numbers: they were DOWN by 2,635,000! That’s some aggressive adjusting!
The BLS also released its Household Survey, which includes 20,000 phone surveys. The Household Survey showed job LOSSES of 31,000 in January.
The Household Survey also showed Average Hourly Earnings rising by .6% to 4.5% year-over-year. But earnings rose for the wrong reasons: it was because the average weekly hours worked fell. That’s just math: If you divide the same salary by fewer hours, you get higher wages reported. In truth, Average Weekly Earnings (wages taken home) were flat, at 3%.

Yes we call them democrat voters normally. One must break the definition code to discover things.

I see you still can't math.
If the economy "added more jobs than expected!!"
But unemployment didn't change...
2+2=5 comrade.
