Bad weather causes people to change their plans to hire new employees? Really? It is a seasonally adjusted number.
Actually....yes it can and it is not all that uncommon. Let me give you an specific example: My sons own a company that does moisture remediation in crawlspaces. We've had a tremendous amount of rain over the past 4-6 weeks. The ground is saturated. They have a lot of work stacked up and need additional employees. Unfortunately, with the weather being so poor they will not be hiring for a few more weeks.

A 120k dip though is pretty drastic.
Sure, seasonal effects do matter but I don't think seasonality would account for such a substantial proportion of "missing jobs".
That would be the only thing that is really relevant here.
The top 1% got almost 4% of a vastly larger number each.
Most others got .8% to 1.7% of a much smaller number.
Since 100% of the money is borrowed it would seem that giving more free money to one person as opposed to another is not really fair.
If we had a surplus and cut rates to make the budget balance, then...yes...an outsized break would go to those at the top. But we are effectively rewarding the top....for NOT having paid enough taxes! Or, put your way, we are slightly rewarding everyone but especially corporations and the top for NOT paying enough taxes.
And most importantly? The individual income cuts expire in 2025, the corporate changes are forever. You're not posting facts, you are misleading people.
I was referring to the basic income tax cut.
Since the top 1% of income earners pay about 40% of the taxes, that would have to be factored in, too.
Predictably this would be lefty red meat today. Anything less than positive gets pounced (foaming) from lefty. For 2 years the jobs report has been ignored. Keep your fingers crossed. Maybe we'll have a nuclear war to feed your tds
Did you use a conservative random word generator to form that paragraph?

But "no one hires for Summer jobs in February", I guess you are right, since the season technically starts in march and isnt called "summer", LOL
so right there, I have listed about 1,500 open positions posted for February, many of which didnt exist before then, seasonal or not.
