N TX economy seems pretty strong IMO but I didn't realize that was the case nationwide.

Is the Rust Belt back?

This is what happens when reality ceases to be a "metric."

95 million out of the workforce.
46 million on food stamps.
11 million on disability.
15 million wetbacks working for cash.

Full employment? Yeah, riiiiight. Yet these fucks stand there with a straight face and say this shit...

It's goddamned mind boggling.

Trump said in a speech that New Mexico's food stamp recipients had TRIPLED since 2000.
How does that happen with full employment? Maybe working the welfare system counts as employment with Oturd's regime.

Easy! Just make it so words have no meaning anymore. Repeat after me:

30% unemployment = full employment.
Weak economy = overheating economy
War = peace
Night = day
Stupidity = intelligence
Fact = lie

Male = Female

"In short, labor markets are relatively tight," he said. "This may put upward pressure on inflation going forward."

Yes any inflationary pressure must be tight labor markets, as it could NEVER be caused by massive gubment deficit spending and/or zero interest rate policies for a friggin decade.

I think the implication is that of the positions available, most are filled. It doesn't mean everyone is employed. It means there aren't enough jobs.

Yeah, the "gender fluidity" thing is special, isn't it?

This cool map shows which US states are growing and contracting

According to the release, the indexes increased in 39 states, decreased in seven, and remained stable in four.

The states with decreases include North Dakota, Oklahoma, Wyoming, Louisiana, Iowa and Pennsylvania. All share exposure to the oil and gas industry, which has struggled due to low prices.

Texas, while exposed heavily to the energy industry, saw activity increase. Comments recently made by Home Depot’s Chairman and CEO Craig Menear may explain.

"I think all major markets in Texas performed well,” Menear said on a conference call this month. “Texas clearly has diversified their economy, more so over the past few years, which I think is a benefit.”

this.

If they call minimum wage, shit jobs full employment. These folks may have what can loosely be construed as a job, but they do not have enough $ to spend to cause inflation.

Well, it's alarming IF this is an indicator of employment availability in light of the numbers you've posted.

Thankfully, they're just cooking the numbers as usual.

Jews LIE…. you figured that out yet anybody????

Always glad when I find that one person on GLP who actually stops to think what something means instead of jumping to a conclusion

When a labor market is full, is means all jobs in the labor market are filled.

If it is beyond full employment, as the article says it could be, then that means that companies are retaining employees even when the workload may no longer require their positions.

This means the overall cost of labor is higher in relation to a static value of goods produced, which means either prices go up (inflation) or profits go down (Hell freezing over).

Yeah, so since there are no companies hiring, let's raise interest rates (and taxes) to cool of this overheating economy!

Vomit.

Thanks for the
!
