I'm curious what news you're reading or consuming.
Wages are up 3.1% YoY (biggest increase in 10 years) and unemployment lowest since 1969: https://www.cnbc.com/2018/10/31/wages-and-salaries-jump-by-3point1percent-highest-level-in-a-decade.html https://www.cnbc.com/2018/10/31/wages-and-salaries-jump-by-3...
2.7 Million more full-time jobs since January 1, when the tax cuts went into effect.
- padseeker 8y agoThe point is so simple and straight forward I question your ability to carry on this conversation. It is bloody obvious what I'm trying to say. The idea is that we have a problem, a stagnating economy, lack of jobs and stagnating wages. The prescribed solution to this problem was tax cuts. So if you still having large scale layoffs then it appears that maybe the SOLUTION is not quite solving the PROBLEM. Instead I need to engage in this stupidity. This is like someone getting cancer, and someone prescribes snake oil solution, and I'm saying the snake oil doesn't work. And instead some of you at the bottom of this thread are saying I'm blaming the cancer is due to the snake oil. How long do we need to do this stupid song and dance.
