It's a subset of rich people that are causing that, namely deep state beneficiaries.

Right, but your employment stats don't tell the whole picture. The poll on Bidenomics does.
The poll on Trump: 66% disapproval rate, highest disapproval since Nixon.

Just because Americans have poor memory and fail to remember that Trump collapsed economy in 2020, is no excuse not to remind them not to give Trump another chance at collapsing US economy.

The unemployment rate is a widely used economic indicator(for some weird reason), but it has significant shortcomings:
  1. Underemployment not Captured: The unemployment rate focuses on those actively seeking employment but may not account for underemployed individuals or those who have given up looking for work.
  2. Discouraged Workers Excluded: People who have stopped looking for a job due to frustration or discouragement are not considered unemployed, which may lead to an underestimation of the true extent of unemployment.
  3. Doesn't Account for Quality of Jobs: The unemployment rate does not distinguish between full-time and part-time employment or consider the quality of jobs available. People may be employed but still struggling with low wages or job insecurity. All jobs are not the same when evaluating the quality of a nation's economy.
  4. Excludes Certain Groups: Individuals not in the labor force, such as retirees or students, are not factored into the unemployment rate. This exclusion can mask the true economic challenges faced by specific demographic groups. 
  5. Voluntary Part-Time Workers: Those working part-time due to inability to secure full-time employment are considered employed, potentially distorting the picture of labor market health.
  6. Doesn't Reflect Job Satisfaction: The unemployment rate provides a quantitative measure but does not capture qualitative aspects such as job satisfaction, job fit, or whether individuals are working in their chosen or qualified fields, translating into market inefficiencies.
  7. Varied State of Job Markets: Regional differences in job markets are not adequately reflected in the national unemployment rate, and local economic conditions may not be accurately represented. Since the modern economy is interconnected, a severe shortcoming in one isolated job market can affect many other economic markets, despite full employment in those markets. This economic imbalance can never be deduced from a simple overall jobs report.

Well, you are all in on taxing the rich. So it is us vs them from all sides.

You just support the side that supports insider trading on the backs of the poor.

Nice AI bot irrelevant text strawman

Unemployment during Biden has same standards as unemployment during Trump.

The only difference is that unemployment during Biden is 3%, where unemployment during Trump is 15%.

And I already also posted employment numbers, but oops you forgot.

It's a shame you cant refute a single point I listed, par for the course.

Yeah, it's an irrelevant inconclusive garbage statistic under Trump AND Biden; as evidenced by the 69% of people upset with Bidenomics.

"But keep running on Bidenomics and employment," as ILIKEPIE said a month ago. "It's a winning strategy for sure!"

That is the left-tribe in a nutshell. They vote for what they claim to oppose the most, and all of the suffering they cite arises out of local policy that has been under left-tribe control for decades. Tragic irony.

Official statistics are assumptions, where your data-less chat bot ranting is not?

You do realize that this warrants an ad hom?

It's easy for people to be led by false promises and hopes, and easier still to hide the truth of the evil doings of the Democrat Party when you have the power to make that happen.

I dont need to prove your assumptions. In your world, its just conspiracy and nonsense. You reject all data, so you have no data and have no argument.

Prove I made the first assumption.


You reject all data
and yet out of the past four times someone has rejected data in this thread, every single time it has been you.

"Oh it's Jan 2022 so it doesn't count", "2022 isn't 2023" (as if you were talking about the latest data), "Who cares about pizza? Buy bananas.", "Who cares about cement, buy smartphones", "chicken prices averaged by BLS?", rejected because chicken prices my vary locally.

That's the game isn't it. When someone rejects your interpretation they're "rejecting all data". When someone puts forth their own interpretation, you can reject it without rejecting "the data". How convenient. You've certainly learned how to play from some others on this website. It's a rather stupid game, but you know how to play.

I could link you all the posts where you said:
"Wages didnt increase"
"Unemployment didnt decrease"
"Prices increased 50%, minimally 20% (blatant lie)"

Again, you reject official data and you accept your fabricated data, and you think you have an argument. 

Its sad that you are so deep into conspiracies, but what did I expect from MAGA.

Sure I do: You are relying on assumptions you haven't verified and in my opinion didn't even know you were relying on.


Again, you reject official data
I reserve the right to reject 'official' data. My arguments don't depend on it, yours does. Therefore me rejecting official data isn't contradictory while you doing it is.


you accept your fabricated data
Now it's fabricated huh? Another assumption?


Its sad that you are so deep into conspiracies, but what did I expect from MAGA.
Enjoying the role play? See I remember you having a bit of fun sympathizing with the oppressive communist insurrectionists in north Korea. I remember you claiming to not care if you contradict yourself. Whatever you're pretending to be right now, it gives me nothing but a good laugh to imagine you clutching pearls at what kind of things I will believe.... ESPECIALLY in the context of me citing the price of a bag of cement, U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis, and the Washington post.

You are relying on assumptions you haven't verified and in my opinion didn't even know you were relying on.
And you are rejecting official data based on your assumptions.

You are rejecting unemployment rate based on assumption.

The only difference is that my data is official, where yours is just you ranting.

So, again, if you dont trust official data, you have no data at all and have no arguments against Biden.

You have no data on any price rise if you dont trust data to begin with.

Your idea of "verified data" makes all data you provided unverified.

Its a sad world you live in.

By your own standards, it does.

You are just a flip flop debater who wants to defend two conflicting positions at the same time.

The reality is, you cannot both accept and reject official data, but you are trying to do both.

And why should anyone trust you over official data is a question you have to ask yourself.
