>> 40k jobs per year whe the economy is shedding jobs is significant.

I'm sorry, but 3 or 4 thousand jobs a month is insignificant in an economy the size of ours, no matter when, why or how. It has no meaningful impact on the economy in either direction.

That's a ridiculous claim. You're talking about a billion and a half in wages out of a 6.5 Trillion GDP.

Even YOU can see that is not a significant number.
