Final jobs report before Election Day shows US employers added 661,000 workers in September

Lower-than-expected growth suggests the labor market's recovery from the coronavirus pandemic is beginning to plateau.

The U.S. economy added 661,000 jobs in September, suggesting the labor market's recovery from the coronavirus pandemic is beginning to plateau amid fading government relief money and a gradually growing virus caseload.

The Labor Department's payroll report released Friday is the last before the Nov. 3 presidential election, for which the coronavirus pandemic and the subsequent economic recession have been a major issue.

It showed the unemployment rate unexpectedly fell to 7.9% from 8.4%.

Just a reminder in September 2012 before the election the unemployment rate was 7.8% and we didn't have a pandemic or states still in various states of lockdown. Until completely opening up the unemployment rate will remain relatively high but the reality is we are recovering due to conservative economic principles in play

Coronavirus closures: Map of where US states are tightening restrictions

Throughout the pandemic, officials across the United States have rolled out a patchwork of restrictions on social distancing, masking and other aspects of public life. The orders vary by state, county and even city. At the height of restrictions in late March and early April 2020, more than 310...

Right as if someone from England has any clue as to what is going on in this country. Like most liberals you claim you are compassionate and wanted the economic shutdown to stop the spread of the virus when the reality is you only wanted the poor economic numbers a shutdown would create to try and earn political points. It isn't working

LOL Conservative approach to saying nice things about Trump:

1) Make claim.
2) Read someone else's response, pointing out how claim doesn't change the fact that Trump is a festering puddle of liquid shit.
3) Lose temper and rage about Liberals and foreigners, calling everyone in the world who disagrees wrong and big dummies.
4) Rinse and repeat

Everyone else's approach to nice things said about Trump:

1) Laugh.
2) Rinse and repeat.

Just vote the prick out already.

He was lucky to inherit a good economy. It's unfortunate that he was unable to keep the longest expansion in US history going.

Latest jobs report shows slowing recovery

Employers added 661,000 workers in September after 1.37 million in August, according to the last U.S. jobs report before November’s presidential election.

www.ajc.com

That was well below projections of 875,000 workers, according to The Hill.

The sharp deceleration in labor market gains for the third consecutive month suggests the winner of November’s presidential election will inherit an increasingly shaky economic rebound.

A vain attempt to polish a cratering economic turd.

And along with the new unemployment claims, it indicates a continuously slumping recovery. It looks like once again a Dem will inherit a wrecked Republican economy, and be tasked with righting it. It's becoming a (sad) redundant & repeating story ...

Haven't seen a Biden proposal to create jobs but have seen his proposal to shutdown the economy creating more unemployment. What I continue to notice about you foreigners is all you do is attack Trump never offering an alternative and discussing actual issues and proposals. It does appear that Kamala Harris a heartbeat from the Presidency is right up your alley. True radicals unite!!!

Yes it does and until the states fully open it will remain slower, the point remains we are recovering slowly and I know how much that bothers a Biden supporter, LOL. Biden's plan is what?

Any idea what the economic shutdown's projections were for unemployment? thankfully we have a pro private sector President who isn't proposing raising taxes and punishing the private sector for success

Bend over and take it businesses and individuals of the Biden Job's creation proposals. We all know that raising taxes reduces individual take home pay so thank you Democrats for taking money out of our pockets, giving it to bureaucrats, and preventing us from spending in the privates sector

President Biden’s Campaign Tax Plan

Biden’s tax plan is estimated to raise about $3.33 trillion over the next decade on a conventional basis, and $2.78 trillion after accounting for the reduction in the size of the U.S. economy. While taxpayers in the bottom four quintiles would see an increase in after-tax incomes in 2021...

Right, the Biden economic plan, over three trillion in taxes that those evil rich and corporations are going to absorb and focus on hiring employees? Is that your liberal logic? Get out of that bubble and think for a change, you have less spendable income, corporations and businesses are taxed higher, who does that benefit and why would businesses hire more people?

What's there to discuss? Biden was VP when Obama rebuilt the economy after it collapsed under Bush's watch, and set Trump up nicely with that curve he was riding. I have no reason to think that Biden can't put it back together again.

Right rebuilt the economy with the worst recovery in American history from a major recession at a cost of 9.3 trillion dollars. Keep showing how easily it is to indoctrinate foreigners into whatever the left wants you to believe. It is interesting how foreigners like you have no civics understanding which is why you cannot explain what Congress does and what the Democratic Congress from January 2007 did to prevent what you call the Bush collapse. Looks to me like they collapsed the economy to put Obama in the WH.

This thread is about the jobs recovery and the fact that the Biden tax proposals will not only slow the recovery but totally destroy it. Higher taxes hurt consumers and we a consumer generated economy unlike yours

Biden's plan is to get the virus under control, the opposite of the Orange Asshole's plan of neglecting/downplaying and blaming states while letting it burn through the population.

At the rate this admin has added jobs, it will take AT LEAST 17 months just to get back to pre-covid numbers. Of course, if the Asshole stays, he will reduce the number of workers, so we might not get there anyway.

Right allowing businesses to keep more of what they earn is a subsidy in the liberal world as we all know that it is the government's money first, isn't it. Notice the date on that article? When did the Trump tax cuts take effect?

Your country relies on gov't spending as the biggest component of your GDP, consumer spending is our biggest components, tax increases helps your gov't and hurts our consumers, simple logic and common sense that escapes you

The largest share of tax increase would be on corporations, bringing the rate back to 28%, still below Reagan era rates.....and that is on PROFITS, they can spend and deduct their spending to their hearts content.
