June - 850,000 New Jobs

Still have a ways to go to recoup the jobs lost to the pandemic but this is a good number no matter how you look at it.

Everywhere I go I see that places are hiring.
There are jobs out there to be had if one wants to work. As for me, I'm happily retired!

Me too and really loving it. Employers are really having to step up their offerings / incentives chasing new employees. That's a good thing in my book. Better pay = happier employees = higher profits.

My favorite Trumper coworker recently told me the economy was "in the toilet" immediately after bragging about his 401k and rising property values.

He has his cognitive dissonance down to a fine art. It truly is impressive.

That is a great thing........... Unless your a Republican. Then, wages people can actually live off of are the bane of Western Civilization. How in the hell they figure that has always been a mystery to me.

It is called the fantasy industrial complex. Americans believe in all sorts of false things these days. When I was a kid it was big foot. Now the falsehoods that people believe are in much more dangerous to our democracy. Millions of people believe the election was stolen.
