the second graph is a graph of multiple job holders

It is a real number but admins can manipulate it.

key takeaway: look at the trend in the chart, and when Trump comes in

7 years of trend, then trump, continuation

The only thing I hate about trump is he only cares about economy

He is willing to destroy a national park in Minnesota just for Copper

only thing i hate about trump is that hes just another jewish puppet

Though the stats fall down when you take into account these are likely min wage jobs.

And those folks might be on food stamps and assistance programs.

that data is available

New Jersey minimum wage went up because of trump

$10

Economy rolling under trump!

Now its $11

And so do prices. 😜

Nope.

In 2021 they will go up

here is a fun one:

For now more money less prices

Dems are rolling in their sleep over trumps supreme intelligence in office.

Here is another fun one for Trumpers to defend:

Quantity over quality.

all that talk about manufacturing, but hours are down

Is anyone here below 18?

Quick question

Cuz I'm 12

The young people are upstairs in <#542037236053442561>

Well, robotics is kinda the deaths door for old school manufacturing. You will always need to employ technicians and cleaning staff though to pop in and take care of the machines though.

Doesn't have to be at all

Until they invent an ultimate roomba.

The automation thing is a big myth too

i.e., Yang et al

The unemployment is a function of unspent income from the productivity gains

for any era or sector

the labor shift is an externality that only the gov can really solve within any reasonable time frame, basic fiscal action to retrain people or repurpose them

many conservatives and libertarians hold the idea that free market economy 'rations scarce resources', but it doesn't. it efficiently produces wealth, which is very different

The gov also gets in the way when they bailout dinosaurs like the automakers, etc. those factories could have been sold off to 30ish different companies and turned it other things by now, including maybe a dozen or more car companies

You might agree/disagree but not bailing out homeowners till it was far too late was the worse sin. It created a big personal debt trap and made large numbers homeless.

I generally think the govt needs to do way more to deal with home ownership, especially in CA.

I would have done something comprehensive about the banks and the housing situation in general

I would not have reinflated the housing bubble, would have let all the bad bets play out, including the foreclosuers and then auctions, done something else with the mortgage holders
