They know going into 2020 if the economy is shit, Trump is done. ........................... And of course another 8 years of their type of failed economy will be blamed on Trump. People who make good choices in life don’t end up on the unemployed lines. Those who make poor choices are never responsible for them, and its always the other guy’s fault when they end up the way they do. I would think the biggest contributor to the jobless claims is unskilled labor. Skilled labor is always needed. With 14K laid off by GM, there may be a few more claims, but GM is opening more factories and there will be more jobs. I am not an economist, but I can predict higher salaries, higher taxes, and higher prices for everything. How much will that ole 5 cent 4” Tree Musketeer candy bar cost in 10 years? Its 78cents in Walmart now. Hey, middle income worker, not a dam thing has changed since 1957. We make more now, and what we make today only buys what we could afford in 57’ when we earned 5K a year. The rich get richer, the poor get poorer, and the middle class remains spinning wheels.
