So your saying that the democrats shutting down everything caused job losses and republicans opening back up everything made job growth

I don't have too many major thoughts on it, Moose. I see that they had estimated an average of about 242,000 new jobs per month, and it's been revised down to an average of 174,000 a month. But I'm not seeing why it was estimated high in the first place.


It makes for a great negative headline, I guess, but an average of 174,000 a month is still growth.

You might find this interesting... the average job growth from 2018 to 2019... before COVID... was 176,000 a month...


What do you make of it, Moose?

I don't trust anything the government says. This may be a con to get the Federal Reserve to make a big rate cut next month to help Kamala in the election.
