The U.S. economy shed jobs in July, yet the unemployment rate improved — an unusual pairing that points to a worrying story unfolding behind the numbers for some economists.

That’s because even as the U.S. economy lost jobs, American workers left the labor market faster.

Mom’s basement might be the answer.

    So it wasn’t Trump’s firing of an honest lady, politicians lie, including the ones you like.

    There’s a problem on both sides of American politics with politician worship, they cannot accept any criticism of their guy, especially if it’s a factual rebuttal to a negative statement they made about the other guy.

    They can’t accept someone pointing out the timeline doesn’t follow Trump being the only bad guy, so downvotes and “Biden is not president”.

    Yeah, and Trump didn’t invent lying about job numbers, him being the current president doesn’t mean you can credit him for pioneering every wrong doing he’s ever done, he’s mostly following established precedents, he just did away with any formalities and attempt to hide it.
