According to AAA, the national average gasoline price at the pump has risen to $3.40, up 40% from $2.40 one year ago. With prices now at multi-year highs, and following the White House taking credit for lowered pricing late last year, analysts are focused on the Administration's next move.
Amazing what happens when you stop paying people to stay home and not work. They actually have to go back to work. You know, the same jobs they had before.
Now it would have been much better if the current Potato-in-Chief had done this much earlier, when we were all telling him to, rather than dragging it all out massively hurting the supply chain and increasing prices dramatically.
The numbers have been all over the map of late because of the difficulties presented by the pandemic. All one needs to do is use their own eyes. This is the best labor market we have ever seen and the revisions are beginning to capture that. There are job openings everywhere and at wages that would have seemed impossible two years ago for the bottom rung.

Yeah I don't think anybody doubts there are unlimited jobs available right now, businesses have not been able to find workers. The problem is prices and shortages. All the wage gains have been swallowed up by inflation, and we will have a $32+ TRILLION federal debt by year's end

Prices and shortages highly influenced by the HUGE surge and seemingly sustained demand for goods at a time when the distribution of goods is being hampered by broken supply chains.
AND WEATHER.
You don't think the last two major storms that stranded truckers all over highways is not going to impact.

Biden needs to stop the snow.
There's no magical extra demand beyond the flood of printed money into the system. People were buying like crazy throughout the pandemic at costco and online. What changed was more money and less supply when the existing inventory ran out because of lack of workers to make, transport, and retail the goods.
The worker shortage is being slowly repaired, it'll take a lot longer to get through all that money flooding the system
dude are you even listening to yourself, this thread is about a good 2022 jobs report and you are fixated on Trump? Why is Trump the only thing you think of? If it's this bad now how are you going to be able to deal with life if Trump is re-elected in 2024?

lol for what? If Brandon had his way he would have another 5 rounds of trillion dollar welfare so people could stay home
That is a Trump initiated policy that Biden ended even though many of his supporters were asking for another round. So, hardly 'the way Brandon wanted'.
