Strangely I don’t feel better off.
It’s my fault though. I just need to accept the new “norm”.

In December of 2007, workforce participation for the US was 66%.
By 2015, it was 62%.
It climbed steadily until February of 2020 at 63%.
It's the same now that it was in August of 2020 - 62%.

Of course you have to pay double for groceries and 30-40% in gas, so awesome about your 15.00 per hour

Wages may be up but inflation is up higher so buying power is actually down. Let's go Brandon!

If the wages are up and the unemployment down, I still get mugged when I go downtown.
Wait, that’s not how this goes! That’s not how this goes at all.

The stock market disagrees

Wife just got a 4% raise.
So, we're only losing 5% or so.
4% raise - 9% inflation = 5% buying power lost.

frick you Brandon. Real wages, depending on who you ask, are down anywhere between 3 and 10% because of your inflation. But our Pravda-esque 5th Column MSM will run cover for your lies, with a giant smile on their collective faces.

I would love for someone at the pressers to force him to expound on statements like this.

Pack of chicken thighs $12
Gas $3.00 gallon
Ribeye $24.99 lb
I saved .16 on my forth of July BBQ.

Wages may be up nominally, but they they aren't up past the rate of inflation. So if I have more dollars and those dollars now buy less goods, then it's not a raise.
I'm available if any of these retards need an Econ 101 session.
Problem is a large majority of the people that read that believe it, and the media won't call him out on it.
frick these people.

No do how many people have left their jobs to live off the govt. The unemployment percentage doesn’t count people who are choosing to do this.

And the people can't pay their power bill....the MOFU swiped $100B from the "so called" infrastruture scam to pay the bill for them!!!!
Notice how Sleepy refers to the bill as "bipartisan"....it is shameful how he uses unity as a smokescreen!
