Trump imposes lowest refugee cap ever

"Wage growth" that just about equals inflation is no growth at all. Not to mention, this alleged "wage growth" is made to look stronger because of the increases in minimum wage. That is NOT something I'd be bragging about.

The LFPR has barely budged at all since Trump took office and is still at a lousy 63.3%. Low-wage part-time jobs in the service sectors aren't "good economic numbers" at all. So, yes, this is essentially the same exact numbers -- just as bad and, in some cases, even worse. Don't believe the lies told by the government, media, and talking heads.

Thank you for serving, friend.

Why don't you look it up instead of just betting that you think you know the answer.

But "asylum" is counted separately for some reason, and I believe the asylum numbers are huge.

Kids don’t want to be refugees. They want their own country.
