More economic good news....292,000 jobs added in December

[Sun Devil 92]

The U.S. economy added 292,000 jobs in December, well ahead of expectations, capping off the second best year of gains since 1999.
The 5.75 million jobs created in the past two years represent the best streak for the labor market since the late 1990s.
The economy has added jobs for 63 straight months and appears on track to maintain that momentum in 2016, with some economists expecting that full employment will be reached by mid-year.
Jason Furman, chairman of the Council of Economic Advisers, said the annual average unemployment rate has seen its fastest two-year decline in 30 years.
Furman noted that the private sector has added 14.1 million jobs over 70 straight months, extending the longest streak on record.

From the GOP:

House Ways and Means Committee Chairman Kevin Brady (R-Texas) said that “while this report is better than expected, millions of more Americans would be working today if the Obama administration had spent less time growing Washington and more time growing our local economy.”

"If President Obama wants to make a real difference during his last year in office, he’ll use his final State of the Union address to propose new ways to break down barriers to job creation and encourage economic growth,” he said.

Economy adds 292K jobs in December

Republicans held both houses and the majority of the Supreme Court for nearly 5 years under Bush and that's what those *holes say? What have they done to help the president. People who vote those goons into office get what they deserve. Why punish the rest of us?

Republicans have been sitting on the Obama Jobs Bill that provides billions for infrastructure improvement for five years now

They are more interested in repealing Obamacare

I think they are punishing the country for voting in a black president.

And the country rewarded them with the house and senate.

Cool

Obama wants to raise minimum wage, help unions and get a living wage

You support him 100% I suppose?

 

[KissMy]

Over 11 million jobs created since 2010

 

[leftwinger]

Always good to hear people are working, Seriouisly.

I guess we don't need Obamacare or Food Stamps.

The Bushs will always be the Jobless Welfare Presidents. Clinton & Obama increased Jobs & reduced Welfare!

I don't see reduction? BHO started near 180bil, up at 210bil in 2014 or a 17% increase?

 

[leftwinger]

Over 14 million jobs created since 2010

another bad chart. not even back to where BHO started? Things are not great. better off a very low bottom but not great. Income rate show the kind of crap jobs we now suffer. Many forced to accept those jobs ............ for now. Maybe someday USA will figure out how to get back in the Producer game.

 

[leftwinger]

BHO working on climate change bullhockey 8 years while China/India grow massive. They build and create why BHO stifles USA. They catch up more and more. And he pumped debt to unsustainable level to get very little band.
A blind monkey could have turned things around from that bottom of all bottoms with $10T free money.

true enough, a return to Republican capitalism would have ended the recession in 6 months and created 8 years of 4 % growth!!!

You Lie!

Bush increased China's growth rate & drove the USA into a Depression! Clinton & Obama slowed China's growth rate & Obama pulled the USA from a Depression to increasing Growth!

Economy collapsed because of republican deregulations of the market and the housing sector. Loserterinaism would of made it so much worse.

Very true

Also Bush's Deer in the headlights response to a collapsing economy

Thank God Obama was there to bail him out

 

[KissMy]

Obama will set a new record for lowering the unemployment rate & he still has a year to go!

The lowest the unemployment rate has ever gone was 3%. Not sure how you believe he is going to get there…

 

[EdwardBaiamonte]

Obama will set a new record for lowering the unemployment rate & he still has a year to go!

probably will by driving more and more out of work force and by lowering wages still further so its easy to hire!

 

[EdwardBaiamonte]

worst recovery since Depression with lower average wages than 10 years ago is bailout only if you are brain dead and liberal.

Economy collapsed because of republican deregulations of the market and the housing sector. Loserterinaism would of made it so much worse.

Title 17, which regulates the financial industry, and Title 12, which regulates banks and banking, increased by more than 10,000 finalized rules in the Code of Federal Regulations.

Whatever deregulation you thought took place, didn't…
