Time to fire more number crunchers in the Labor Department - that's the real issue, not the economy at large.

Do you work in the real world?

There are a number of business owners I know who are reluctant to hire because they don't know what the business and trade rules are going to be. This is the challenge when you have ever changing tariffs, allowed and banned tariffs, etc. I

Who is going to invest in a new plant that needs to make money for 20 years if you tariff policies can greatly affect your raw material costs, selling price etc and they can be changed on a moments notice by one person? To fix this, Trump needs to get the final trade deals enacted into law by Congress and signed by him.

Yep.

White ones or black ones?
Why did they immigrate here?

Or do you mean black Americans?

"African-American" is an immigration status. Someone born in Africa who became a citizen, here.

If 94DCAg is trying to switch this to race, he can't ignore the economic differences as opposed to focusing on race itself. Well, I guess he can if he is a typical liberal.

The number one headwind for the lower end of the economy is the huge number of low skilled immigrants Biden admitted. 94DCAg, where are you on sending them all back?

BTW, I don't remember seeing a lot of your post lately, and have no idea whether you are liberal or not. But your playing the race card...

It goes to show you how much the government employees affect the unemployment rate.

That's the thing that keeps getting under reported in terms of the job numbers.

Blacks have always had a higher number than everyone else...just like they have higher numbers for murders committed and every other stat that exposes their culture rot.

Also, we aren't using "African American" anymore because it's misleading. Please get with the times.
