August jobs report is in, and it's disappointing

[pyetro]

130,000 jobs created is less than expected.
Jobs boosted by census hiring.
Trade war affecting jobs.
Hiring likely slowed in August as the US-China trade war raged | Markets Insider

The problem with your post is that we are currently at perfect employment numbers right now, so that number is just fine.

If we had horrible going on unemployment and we really need jobs then I might be inclined to agree. But we don't, so I don.t

you argued that it wasn't horrible. But I didn't say it was horrible. It was disappointing.

What is more disappointing than this fear mongering and trolling post, is A Leftist' Performance on their Honey Moon.

Liberals lack Testosterone.

They also are confused about which bathroom to use.

They also know nothing about Economics, or do we forget The Disastrous Obama Bin Lying Presidency already?

Mike Obama had bigger balls than his Husband, Obama.

As the nation closes on full employment, the number of jobs created has to be smaller.

If you go from 10% unemployment to 5% unemployment, you have to create a certain number of jobs.

To go from 5% unemployment to 2.5% unemployment, do you have to create the same number of jobs as you did to go from 10% to 5%? No! It is only half as many, assuming a static state.

To go from 2.5% unemployment to 1.25% unemployment, the number of jobs needed to be created is smaller than before.

It is a concept well explained by calculus in that the changes as you approach a limit will be smaller and smaller, each and every time.

If you start off at the goal line and go half way to the goal line on the other end of a football filed, will you ever reach it?

The answer is "no:.

Yep, you're right.

The other consideration is that as frictional unemployed workers find jobs, the pool of available labor that is QUALIFIED for job openings becomes smaller, which explains why we have a persistently high number of job openings as shown on JOLTS (7.3 million at last count).

Employers have jobs available, they are just having a hard time finding qualified people to fill them.

If you had to choose between educated immigrants or immigrants willing to learn and uneducated lazy right wing Republicans, which would you choose? If you were a business owner?

Oh, so we've created 130,000 more jobs and this I'd supposedly BAD NEWS???

Yeah bad news, 34,000 (23%) of those jobs were government jobs (that number should be going DOWN not up).

Beyond that the overall report is fairly neutral.

Wait till next year, it’s going to be hilarious. Remember it’s a census year. That means the government will be hiring hundreds of thousands of people during February March April and May and then, just before the election, they’ll all be let go.

The number of unfilled jobs remains near an all time record high. In other words shut the hell up Trump haters.

You tyou forgot the crazy welfare recipient Dems.
Actually I would go with properly trained American employees. That way I do not have language barriers, cultural barriers to over come. I would not have to worry about immigration hauling away half my workers.

Do you think unfilled jobs is a good thing? What do you think employers think of that?

The difference between people seeking asylum and uneducated Republicans with zero communication skills is that people seeking asylum want to learn.

Don’t get mad at me. I personally believe education is good for America. That’s why I’m not a Republican

Over 29 months Obama added almost 1 million more jobs than Trump

You're such a disingenuous prick.

What were the circumstances under them both?

One president had a crash that made job creation easy because so many jobs had initially been lost and millions needed work.

The other guy had near full employment with more jobs than applicants.


Now go fuck your Obama blow up doll, loser

 

[Mac1958]

The data is clear. We're slowing down, we never came close to the promised GDP (even though the deficit exploded), and now the Fed has to act. Again.

Those are the facts in Normal World. In the alternate universe, they're being told something quite different. Of course.

Over 29 months Obama added almost 1 million more jobs than Trump

Trump entered office on January 20, 2017, and starting with February 2017 he has been President for 29 months. Total job growth during that time has been 5.613 million or 194,000 per month with those results being helped by the tax cut.

Working back from January 2017, Obama’s last month in office, there had been 6.423 million jobs added or 221,000 per month. The difference for the 29 months is 810,000 more jobs or 27,000 more per month than Trump.

Trump Is Falling Almost 1 Million Jobs Short Vs. Obama

4%? 5%? Maybe even 6%?
I don’t think we’re going to be reaching 6% anytime soon.

How many more jobs need to be added to the economy Dean?

How many jobs that are not filled?

You do know you can only create so many jobs over a period of time before it slows down, right?

Also Dean why not dig deeper and look at full time versus part time and seasonal jobs created?

I know you will not because answering the main question about how many vacant jobs there are will set you off and scream that you just want to discuss jobs created...

Well, at least you didn't try to deny reality on the data. So, that's a good thing.

did this moron just say that inheriting a recession makes the job of the next president easier?
I repeat. This conservative guy just said that Obama handed Trump.a good economy . That negates conservative claims that Obama did a bad job on the economy.

We'll see, Donny is between a rock and an election and I suspect a trade deal with China will be in the offing not long after the talks scheduled for early October, which of course could provide a shot in the arm (probably short term?).

On the flip side if a deal doesn't happen fairly quickly all hell could break loose.

Prepare for an exciting ride.

It is clear. I outlined it perfectly in the post above yours. You can not squeeze juice from a lemon that has already had its juice extracted.

Jobs are like everything else in our system. They run on supply and demand. Right now we have no demand.
