LAOIL + 33 OS July 6, 2018 Despite adding 213K jobs in June, unemployment rose to 4%. Among the unemployed, about 1/2 had lost their jobs and 1/2 were re-entrants. Long-term unemployed up by 289K to 1.5 million. A lot of Americans are still left out of this growing economy. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BlackTortoise + 103 CM July 6, 2018 Official figures don't give the full picture but the trend is clear. Lots of jobs available for highly qualified people but steady increase of highly qualified people ensures salary cap. And bad market for less qualified people Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I would sure hate to be Chinese right now. You can only rip off Americans for 3 decades. After that, it's pay back! 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
