No, I did not say you are partisan, I asked if you are just doing the partisan crap, but not it is evident what you are, but to the point, without the lockdownd millions would have died and only the low intellect imbeciles do not realize or recognize that.
LOL, amazing how you continue to post out of context data, let me help you, U-6 rate when Obama left office 9.3%, U-6 pre pandemic 4.2 so it apparently doesn't matter what jobs are credited in that booming Obama economy does it?First, calling the lockdown "insane" is insane. Had there not been lockdowns, millions of Americans would have died from Covid that first year.
Second, Trump NEVER agreed to lockdowns because he was more concerned about getting re-elected than mitigating deaths.
Third, let's look at economic performance of Obama and Trump -- excluding that pandemic year.
Can you tell me Do the states have the authority to raise the minimum wage?
I said in my post "states raising the minimum wage." Also, as you know, the federal government has the authority to raise the minimum wage. Trump and the GOP always resist raising the minimum wage. So, an increase in wages at the bottom was causal to states raising the minimum wage. Trump, although first to take credit for rising wages, had nothing to do with it.
the problem isn't enough labor. We have people sitting on the sidelines - not just baby boomers retiring
But Trump is a Republican. That adds 10 points of theoretical growth.First, calling the lockdown "insane" is insane. Had there not been lockdowns, millions of Americans would have died from Covid that first year.

That is why all the infrastructure jobs need to be implemented. Upgrading infrastructure can be creating well paying jobs and help to reduce inflationary pressures on the private sector.
US hiring cools in December as economy adds just 199,000 new jobs
U.S. job growth accelerated in December, before the rapid spread of the new omicron coronavirus variant cast a fresh threat over the economy and its recovery from the pandemic.www.foxbusiness.com
Now I know that the left radical Biden supporters will tout as usual the U-3 unemployment rate but the reality exists the target for Biden is 159 million employed and 63.4% labor participation rate(Pre pandemic February 2020). One of these days the supporters of Biden and the left are going to realize that rhetoric, massive central gov't, and gov't spending aren't the answer, Promoting the private sector and allowing people to drive it through consumer spending is

Trump didn't "disengage" he established bilateral trade pacts - taking advantage of the size of our economy
My point is that it isn't federal responsibility to raise the minimum wage as that can be done by the states. Imagine that, Trump taking credit for something as we know that Obama and Biden never did that. Why should the federal gov't usurp state and local responsibilities regarding wages?
As you like to say, context matters. While U-6 was 9.3% when Obama left office, it was 14% when he entered office. That's an amazing drop. It was also 11% when Trump left office.
There yo go again touting something that lacks context but promotes the liberal lies and distortions. Why do you do that?But Trump is a Republican. That adds 10 points of theoretical growth.
Notice how we often ignore 25% of Trump's economic performance but we never exclude the first year of Obama's presidency, even though he took office as the economy was cratering due to Bush's economic collapse.
And even with that grossly unfair comparison where we throw out the worst Trump year but keep the worst Obama year, their performance is roughly equal. Yet Obama had a terrible economy and Trump had the worlds greatest.
Trump had the worst gdp growth since hoover
not all state raise the minimum (about 1/2), and the percentile gains also hit middle percentile wage earners.
Again, you want to ignore that Congress was under Democratic Control when the recession began and the U-6 was 9.2% and it was 9.3% when Obama left office, those kind of results don't give you any credibility when you make statements like yours and post charges. The target was 9.2 not what the Democratic Party gave Obama when he took office.As you like to say, context matters. While U-6 was 9.3% when Obama left office, it was 14% when he entered office. That's an amazing drop. It was also 11% when Trump left office.
Infrazstructure is passed with bi-partisan support
I'm not going to derail the thread by expanding it to the role of the federal government. The only thing that matters is that the federal government has the legal authority to raise the national minimum wage and never did under Trump, who was glad to take credit for states raising the wages of low wage earners.
We know now why you converted to the liberal ideology but still not sure why as none of what you posted supports your claims under Reagan nor does it support what you personally did to better yourself, getting a better degree?? How conservative of youAs you like to say, context matters. While U-6 was 9.3% when Obama left office, it was 14% when he entered office. That's an amazing drop. It was also 11% when Trump left office.
Yes it does have the authority just like in so many others issues but that doesn't change the reality that on this and every other issue states have that authority and people like you cannot sell your liberal ideology to many so you want the federal gov't to force it on the states, why? States gave term limits the federal bureaucrats don't
We've been through this before and you never answered the question, "what did that Democratic Congress pass that caused the Great Recession?" You never answer because they didn't pass anything that caused it.
What advances in automation are reducing unskilled labor? The jobs that are going to be lost to automation were largely lost in the 80's and 90's. The low hanging fruit was picked long long ago.the problem isn't enough labor. We have people sitting on the sidelines - not just baby boomers retiring
Also the 2 million migrant encounters +500k "get away" crossing the border are largely unskilled
I mean the illegals are already in lawn maintanance roofing, and other decent paying jobs
Automation is reducing unskilled jobs -where are these migrant going to work?
Then we added more H-1B visia under Biden -which brings in foreign skilled professional labor
H1B visa: Joe Biden is planning to increase H-1B visa limit, remove country quota for green cards - The Economic Times
H-1B visas, which expand the available pool of high skilled workers in the US, is a non-immigrant visa that allows companies to employ foreign workers in specialty occupations that require theoretical or technical expertise. The technology companies depend on it to hire tens of thousands of...economictimes.indiatimes.com
US President-elect Joe Biden plans to increase the number of high-skilled visas, including the H-1B, and eliminate the limit on employment-based visas by country, both of which are expected to benefit tens of thousands of Indian professionals impacted by some immigration policies of the outgoing Trump administration.
Glass Steagall signed by Clinton, no Freddie and Fannie control recommended by Bush to the Democratic Congress that took charge in January 2007
sure Trump agreed to lockdowns. Trump wanted to end them earlier (like Florida did)butt he signed onto that strategy. 30 days.First, calling the lockdown "insane" is insane. Had there not been lockdowns, millions of Americans would have died from Covid that first year.
Second, Trump NEVER agreed to lockdowns because he was more concerned about getting re-elected than mitigating deaths.
Third, let's look at economic performance of Obama and Trump -- excluding that pandemic year.
I get the fact unskilled labor replacement also opens up other jobs. but those arent unskilled
