It takes 157,000 jobs per month every month just to sop up the number of new entrants into the job market. That was a few years ago, apparently some thinks that's down to 100,000. What happened to the US labor force? A 167,000 job growth in a single month is AVERAGE. ""By the old standard, that would be just average but given the current trends in the labor force, we view such growth as quite solid," Clinton created some 21 million jobs which averages to over 236,000 per month, EVERY MONTH (ok, 210,000 but the BLS says 236,000) He also did this AND improved the budget every single year AND didn't get embroiled into stupid, pointless, incompetently run war for profit. Know something for a change. Know about the quality of these jobs, know about full versus part time, know about benefits such as health insurance. Know something about the state of the budget, the deficit, the trade deficit, the national debt. KNOW SOMETHING. Or at least stop talking to me. HEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEH
