Buffalo_Gal Posted December 9, 2018 Posted December 9, 2018 While the unemployment picture for black Americans is still higher than other demographic groups, it had never fallen below 7 percent since the Bureau of Labor Statistics began tracking the statistic in 1972. The rate for Hispanics is 4.5 percent, while whites are at 3.4 percent, and Asians stand at 2.7 percent.Black unemployment rate tied record low (which also happened under the Trump administration back in May). 1

Proof that Trump's a racist! By putting blacks (and other minorities) to work, he can control them by threats to the economy and their employment! #IMPEACH #RESIST

Buffalo_Gal Posted December 11, 2018 Posted December 11, 2018 Job openings surged at U.S. factories in October. The job opening rate for durable goods manufacturing hit 4 percent, the highest ever recorded in data going back to 2000, according to a report issued Monday by the Department of Labor. That’s an increase from 3.7 percent a month earlier. The figures suggest that tariffs are not hurting U.S. manufacturers. 3.5 Million People Drop Off Food Stamps Under Trump More than 3.5 million people have dropped off food stamps since President Donald Trump’s first full month in office, according to the latest data from the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA). The most recent USDA data reveals that 38,577,141 Americans received benefits through the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP)—otherwise known as the federal government program responsible for giving out food stamps—in September 2018. 1

Nanker Posted December 11, 2018 Posted December 11, 2018 I can’t believe this. Why I heard just today that Nancy Pelosi said that people are losing their jobs and it’s Trump’s fault for wanting to build a wall.
Buffalo_Gal Posted December 13, 2018 Posted December 13, 2018 Rebound: Jobless Claims Return to Near Record Lows The labor market rebounded in the first week of December as the number of jobless claims plummetted. The number of Americans applying for state unemployment benefits fell to 206,000. Economists had forecast around 225,000. </snip> The sharp drop in claims also suggests that the lower-than-expected job growth in November was not a signal of a cooling-off of hiring but an indication of the inability of businesses to find workers in a tight labor market. Nonfarm payrolls rose by 155,000 jobs in November, below expectations and below the prior month’s 237,000. The unemployment rate held steady at 3.7 percent, a very low level. </snip>

But Moody’s Analytics predicts growth of just 2.9% for all of 2018, and 2019 as well. It will then fall to 0.9%, according to the forecasting firm. If so, economic growth under Trump would average just 2.2% per year, almost exactly the same as during President Obama’s second term. The United States’ fiscal strength is set to gradually decline from 2019 onward,” Moody’s Analysts wrote in the report. “A persistent widening of fiscal deficits will push the federal debt and interest burdens to historic levels, which will ultimately weigh on the sovereign credit profile.”
