      Glad to hear that you ADMIT that the minimum wage is FINE, and we don't have to raise it! It is higher than it has been at ANY point prior to 2009!!!!!!

      I mean if most jobs since 1999 is fine, then highest since 2008 should be GREAT!

      If you can overlook the quality, people that stopped looking, and visas, I can certainly overlook inflation!

    No kidding, maybe you could start linking some articles and stats that come from places other than the far left to tell your economic stories and paint your economic pictures.

    Nothing to be proud of here...basically stagnation or decline everywhere.



    Looking at the inflation adjusted numbers even the top two tiers and the top 5% have stagnated or decilned.



    By now one would think that you have gotten the hint that posting these types of threads often turn into a partisan political food fights --> and I am curious as to why you continue to post them? Must be to support your guy, eh?

    Cheers

      FYI...

      The subject is job growth.

      How about this post was straight economic news from the BLS.

      The best job numbers in 14 years and who has an agenda?

      I would think that would be good news and of interest for any USA business person.

      Thanks to the great recession, there are going to be lots bad and slow stats all over the place until we get this thing straightened out, and folks like you can sneer at the best year of job growth in 14 years while also pointing out the bad stats as some sort of rebuttal to my reporting of good news for the American economy.

      Don't worry about where I get my economic stories from as long as they are grounded in reality from the BLS and other official sources.

        Nothing else to talk about, eh? Might as well close the thread.

        You linked the far left leaning website.

        You do, to tout what you believe to be a great administration with great policies

        I would think that would be good news and of interest for any USA business person.
        It's good news but it's barely worth discussing on it's own.

        Bah, blah, blah...it's no rebuttal and nobody is sneering. It's the truth and you know it --> ask the middle class, they'll tell you the same.

        Don't worry about where I get my economic stories from as long as they are grounded in reality from the BLS and other official sources.
        I never worry, I can count on you posting the stats from the farthest left outlets you can find them reported on.

        Cheers

          Pull up my post history and anyone can see I post all sorts of stories although I love the economic ones the best - since this is a business forum.

          Unless told otherwise, I will link to anywhere I want.

          Now you go run to the mods and tell them that.

          And thats it for you and me in this thread since IMHO, you are becoming "Seasonesk."

          (that means like seasoned)

          The floor is all yours killer.

    This is an internet marketing forum and this particular section is the off-topic section. You know many of your economic posts can/will ultimately lead to political and policy discussion. You know politics are not allowed but you continue to push the line. You can fool some of the peeps with your posting pattern but you can't fool them all.

    That said, reading your economic posts are like listening to the same old broken record over and over and over again.

    Cheers
