Just 5.9 percent unemployment. Isn’t that rosy? Just what you’d expect pre-election from the bureaucrats and their Democrat overlords.
If you don’t believe it, you might be more concerned that a 36-year-high of 62.7 million Americans are not participating in the labor force. Home watching Oprah?
Those Democrat “disability” checks just keep on comin’, masking the true extent of our disastrous economy and its decreasing opportunities for the industrious young.

Aspects of the economy can survive even the worst pols, but the uncertainty of new regulations and new taxes is holding employment down in most places. “Hiring” signs for unskilled labor are all over Austin these days but we’re in Texas where things are good.
