U.S. Jobs, Pay Show Solid Gains in Trump's First Full Month (bloomberg.com)
Two anonymous reader share a Bloomberg report: U.S. employers added jobs at an above-average pace for a second month on outsized gains in construction and manufacturing while wage growth picked up, as the labor market continued its steady improvement in the new year. The 235,000 increase followed a 238,000 rise in January that was more than previously estimated, the best back-to-back rise since July, a Labor Department report showed Friday in Washington. The unemployment rate fell to 4.7 percent, and wages grew 2.8 percent from February 2016. While unseasonably warm weather may have boosted the payrolls count, the data represent President Donald Trump's first full month in office and coincide with a surge in economic optimism following his election victory.
We will completely ignore that monthly job gains were even higher in the last month of Obama's presidency
Right. Obama's last month as president was with the business and investing world, and the economy generally, being aware of the results of the election and knowing that the economically toxic Obama policies that Clinton promised to continue would not be continued. Of course you know this, but you're the one who is completely ignoring that. Investors began making big bets on renewed prosperity the moment the stock market opened after election day.
Don't disappoint your bird dog. Go to the range.
Operation Wetback worked quite well, actually. It wasn't until Johnson that the floodgates were reopened in a cynical if not treasonous attempt to change the demographics of the country in order to secure ongoing political power for the Democrats.
"I'll have those ni*gers voting Democratic for the next 200 years." Hell of a guy. Also might have murdered JFK, and extended Vietnam because he was making loads of money selling beef for C-rations to the military.
NPOs are for the most part (over 95%) just tax avoidance schemes for trust fund babies.
