    Wow, it seems like awful things always happen to Republicans during their administrations. Wonder why that is...

    Yeah, we wouldn't want to know statistics about the labor market.

    These pullbacks seem to happen right after my profit sharing is deposited in my retirement accounts and auto purchased funds. So expect one sometime in March…

    The chances of that happening are roughly equivalent to me winning a Power Ball or Mega Millions lottery.

    Whether a person is actively looking for work or has applied for UE has nothing to do with the number of jobs added (or subtracted) each month. That is based on the Establishment Survey. So if there are 200k fewer government and private contractor jobs next month (or in March) that should show up in the Employment report for those months.

    My Dad claimed today that the prices of everything has dropped since Trump, except eggs. He had no details but he just knows it. MAGA is lost.

    Weren't you people claiming in mid-December that the Trumpster was already ruling the U.S.? Or did that only apply to any good news that might come out?

    Come on man, yourself.

    Apparently, "hedge" is some sort of America-hater code word for "truth", so the source is "ZeroTruth".

    The new line is that paying more is patriotic somehow…I thought prices were coming down in day 1?

    Gee that's really funny, because just this week my household paid on average 15% more for stuff (groceries) we buy all the time. No eggs included either.
    We should have told the store manager his prices were wrong. !!!
