Lmao. That the best u have ? The lengths you go to reinforce your denial is lol hysterical Bruce. Swallow the facts bruce.. Job creation by year: 2020–2021The number of jobs created fell by 2.7% in 2020, to 12.78 million, as a result of the recession caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. This was the biggest decrease between 2011 and 2021. That year, the US economy experienced heavy job losses, and the unemployment rate surged to a high of 13% in the second quarter. 2021 saw yet another decline, as annual job creation numbers shrunk by 2.6%, to 12.45 million. This was the only time the number of jobs created fell by two consecutive years between 2011 and 2021. During Trump’s first three years in office, median household incomes grew, inequality diminished, and the poverty rate among Black people fell below 20% for the first time in post-World War II records. The unemployment rate among Black people went under 6% for the first time in records going back to 1972. Minorities and low-skill workers tend to do best late in expansions as the jobless rate falls, but they also tend to be hit first in downturns when some firms dismiss the most recently hired. By September, the Black unemployment rate was 12.1%, reversing all of the gains achieved since 2014. The jobless rate for high-school graduates with no college was 9%, reversing the gains since 2011. 4. Blue collar jobs were hit hard by Covid-19.Trump’s trade policies, most notably tariffs on imports, were aimed at helping blue-collar towns hurt by competition from China, Mexico and other low-wage countries. After decades of declines, manufacturing employment began a modest rise in 2010 and extended those gains under Trump. But the Covid-19 crisis knocked manufacturing employment back down to levels comparable to the 1940s.
