re: Honestly, did you ever think you would see a 3.5% unemployment rate?

You all are fools if you think the unemployment rate being this low automatically equates to high paying jobs. Having a job and having a job with a living wage is entirely two different things. We need to stop paying attention to the raw employment rate. People working two or three jobs to survive skews that number greatly. Rumor has it there is a statistic on jobs that pay a liveable wage. That is the number that we need to see. And since some insist healthcare should only be provided via employment we need to see how many jobs provide real health benefits. The very recognizable corporations providing healthcare with a $6,000 deductible do not count on that score.
Making a "livable wage" is up to the individual. If you are not happy with your wage IMPROVE YOUR MOTHERFRICKEN SKILLS. It is not up to GOVT to hand out high paying jobs...it is more the GOVT's responsibility to get OUT OF THE WAY. Reduce burdens on small business, reduce taxes, reduce regulations which is what Trump has done.
