And the population is still growing, we need at least 125,000 jobs to be added a month just to keep up with new job seekers.

We haven't seen data this bad since...since Trump was President the first time. And people think, "oh, well Covid", but that's not accurate, his jobs numbers were bad before Covid hit, he just inherited a really low unemployment rate from Obama.

People will never understand how good Biden's economy was becoming for working people, the gains were all going to the bottom and middle under Biden.
