With unemployment below 5% and well below that in most places.

Somebody is working the books. I believe that happens all the time.
I see it below 4%. That is really amazing considering the soft landing through inflation so far and interest rates as high as they are.
Which numbers do you expect to balloon? The BLS vacancy numbers or the unemployment rate? And in which direction? Up or down?
I see unemployment rates going up. We have a shift in private works to public now. The private sector will stay dormant for a while and it will take a little bit for the public sector to get full going.
Interest rates are up then the private sector holds their cash.
Our union halls, not the only barometer but one that I use, are filling up. It's 1-1/2 year wait for an electrician to get work now. That isn't furlough, that is the waiting list.
Caterpillar, another one i use, had climbed the last two months but is trending down again. When they trend down construction will slow sending the markets to Bearish territory.0 -

They report monthly and adjust as necessary. The BLS I linked to also did not list farm jobs, only non-farm jobs.mickeyrat said:Halifax2TheMax said:

Now I wish NYC and the sanctuary cities would admit their mistake AND that Texas would stop this process. But it's easy to have a big mouth until the problem punches you in the face.hippiemom = goodness0 -
Except the “problem punching them in the face,” “them” being sanctuary cities, are trying to address the issue as best they can and pleading for assistance from the federal government. The Brandon crime family has solutions and is willing to negotiate or bargain for specifics but repubs fail to negotiate. Meanwhile, Abbott & Costello and Deathsantis continue to exhibit their white Christian contempt for the other.cincybearcat said:

I have yet to see a city fall as hard as Seattle as a result though.
But yea, both sides, I get it.

MA handled getting punched in the face quite well, really. Almost makes one proud to be an American.
Except the “problem punching them in the face,” “them” being sanctuary cities, are trying to address the issue as best they can and pleading for assistance from the federal government. The Brandon crime family has solutions and is willing to negotiate or bargain for specifics but repubs fail to negotiate. Meanwhile, Abbott & Costello and Deathsantis continue to exhibit their white Christian contempt for the other.cincybearcat said:
Those small towns didn't declare themselves sanctuary cities did they? This is a case of politicians and electorate reaping what they sow. They said they welcome this...I think this strategy by Texas is showing the truth.Halifax2TheMax said:
What if NY, MA, VT, DC, etc. bussed them to small towns in red states like SC, AL, MS, AR, OK, IA, TN, IN or dropped them off in small, rural towns in TX in the middle of the night with no advance warning? Or outside the gates of Mar-I-Lieo? Does that change your mind?tempo_n_groove said:
What if they want to be bussed here? Does that change your mind?Merkin Baller said:
Which is pretty fucking inhumane, no?tempo_n_groove said:
Well that's not true. The buses from Texas keep coming here to NY so something is still being done.Halifax2TheMax said:
Nothings being done except drawing up articles of impeachment for Mayjorkis (sp?).Merkin Baller said:
I would hope we can agree on that.
Now I wish NYC and the sanctuary cities would admit their mistake AND that Texas would stop this process. But it's easy to have a big mouth until the problem punches you in the face.
I have yet to see a city fall as hard as Seattle as a result though.

Red states are going by their own definition of sanctuary city. imoA sanctuary city is a municipality that limits or denies its cooperation with the national government in enforcing immigration law. Leaders of sanctuary cities say they want to reduce fear of deportation and possible family break-up among people who are in the country illegally, so that such people will be more willing to report crimes, use health and social services, and enroll their children in school.now theres a way to not be fucking assholes about it, you know, coordination, alerting of arrival, expected numbers etc......_____________________________________SIGNATURE________________________________________________

It’s nice to see Mike Jonson and over 60 other house republicans at the border complaining about Biden’s lack of action on border security rather than in DC negotiating border security w/ Biden as they were invited to do.Fuckin both sides, man.0

And showing a little bit of fucking compassion from “the richest, most powerful nation the world has ever seen” for crying out loud. Shameful exploitation with a refusal to offer solutions or negotiate compromise.mickeyrat said:Red states are going by their own definition of sanctuary city. imoA sanctuary city is a municipality that limits or denies its cooperation with the national government in enforcing immigration law.
