Economy August Jobs Report a massive disappointment

[White Whale]

Open borders and given people money to stay at home while telling them they don’t have to pay rent might have something to do with the poor job report.

I work at a pretty big tech company with a good reputation. We have been having trouble filling in two 6 figure positions for about a year now. We aren't even that picky, there's just a lack of candidates. I know it pays well because I am making 40% over industry average in a similar position.

There were more jobs added last month (and in every other month of Biden's presidency so far) than in Trump's entire four-year term, though.

Its almost like a pandemic started* last year

Unemployment still fell. There's a phenomenon called the "Great Resignation" where a bunch of millenials are leaving jobs this year without looking for a new job. They plan to start work next year

where would a specific gen get the idea to do such a monumentally stupid thing like leave a job and not work for 6 months

the pandemic is still going on though. Honestly WTF are you fools talking about?

It's all falling apart for White Privilege Joe.

Even CNN is turning on him.

Almost like a new variant has been spreading. Also, it's funny how Trump fanboys were denying that factors outside of the president affect jobs right up until Trump's bungling of the response led to a collapse.

Hmm. The factual claims there were that average monthly job growth has been far higher under Biden than under any previous president, and that we have had a recent true "jobless" president. Both of those are simple facts that you can look up and confirm. And your response is just childish name-calling. How about, "thanks Jack. That's good perspective."

 

[A Lurker]

That doesn't make sense though because he has a job. I think Sleepy Joe is better because he does seem like he could be a sleepy guy.

I prefer sniffing joe, because he likes to have a good ol sniff.

 

[MoparOrNoCar]

Hmm, you think the global pandemic might have had something to do with that...


You've sunk to a new low Jack.

It's the new normal for the Biden presidency. Creating issues and then patting themselves on the back for reacting to them poorly.

Instead of planning correctly to get American civilians out of Afghanistan, they up and leave hastily and then have to run numerous emergency efforts to get many of them out before they're killed. Then a dozen or so people get killed and a bunch more get left behind and the administration pats themselves on the back for getting a record number of people out.

He hasn't proven anything besides stating that were gaining some of the jobs back that we lost during this pandemic.

Obviously the gains are going to be higher in the near term.

Yeah, we're still getting back the jobs we lost under Trump, though note that it's not automatic, and look at how much better the U.S. is doing than the rest of the developed world. Can't deny that Biden deserves some credit for that. Also, good to see hacks finally realize that job numbers aren't purely a reflection of presidential performance.

The pandemic is still going on. You’re taking like it’s over.

you guys make no sense at all. Isn’t it better these jobs are coming back?

So covid is a hoax. Got it
