If there are so many jobs, why do we still have welfare?

And when there are rate hikes on savings, seniors who have savings (a lot still do) will be more likely to spend, a lot of that going into local economies.

It's astounding that those in charge don't get it. Or don't care.

Even if it is a ‘blowout’ number, given the Intel and Disney laying-off Americans in favor of H1B’s, will these newfound jobs be populated with American citizens?

I wonder.

All phoney manipulation of numbers. So many are unemployed and/or are only able to find part-time work.

Not something to brag about.

Let’s see ... Part-time burger-flippers and lawn-mowers ... New government workers hired to make the jobs report look good ... Maybe a couple of “real jobs” in there someplace.

The Federal reserve has to follow thru with a rate hike to show their policy of dropping rates spurred a recovery, even if it didn’t. Sort of like taking a patient off of life support to show they’re better; if if they aren’t.

Welcome to the Tinker Bell “recovery” where it’s a recover if everyone believes.

In July, the economy added 223,000 jobs and the unemployment rate fell to 5.3%???

It was my understanding that the economy requires about 350,000 JOBS created every month just to BREAK EVEN!!

Many have run out of unemployment benefits.
There is nothing left to claim.
All the temp jobs and part time jobs have destroyed the safety net for many. I know, as I have had real bad luck with employement the last 6 years. Age , health, foolish mistakes, ecetera, I have been rendered almost unemployable. I’m having to start over at 52. It’s hard. I could probably go for disability but I still have a lot to offer. I’m pretty damn dscouraged. I quit a job of 24 years in April 2007 for what I thought was greener pastures, then came Obama. This has really almost destroyed me.
It’s mostly my fault, my timing could not have been worse.

You got to have a job to lose it and get unemployment. Fewer people filing for unemployment means that there were fewer in the workforce to start with.

When you’ve removed ONE HUNDRED MILLION WORKERS from the workforce, your “unemployment” numbers go down.

This report is a fraud.

okay.....one more time.....

No matter what Yellen says on the Sunday shows...

The Fed is NOT going to raise rates. Not this year. Not next year. Probably not ever. Fed printing presses are the only thing keeping the game of three card monte otherwise known as the Global Economy going.

About 220,000 of those 223,000 jobs went to "foreign born" persons: illegals and H1B visa holders.

The counter clerk at a rental store I was at 2 weeks ago was a former DB admin laid off by Cargill when they hired Indians. Guess he counts as an "employed" American STEM graduate.
