Jobs Report Not Looking Good

[esmith]

Seems that the jobs reported report just issued doesn't look to good for the Harris campaign, that is if anyone reads it or hears about it.
Only 12,000 jobs were added in October probably due to the Boeing strike and the two hurricanes
September numbers were adjusted down to a 223,000 gain
August number was adjust down to a 78,000 gain
These adjustment, collectively, decreased the previously reported figures by 112,000
But government jobs did not suffer with a 40,000 gain, close to the average 43,000 a month over the last 12 months. (don't you just love big governent).
Professional and business services sector, temporary help services saw a major decline of 49,000 jobs. Since peaking in March 2022, employment in temporary help services has dropped by 577,000.

U.S. Economy Added Only 12,000 Jobs—Why This Comes As No Surprise

The U.S. economy added only 12,000 jobs, far below the expected 100,000, as severe weather in the Southeast and a strike at Boeing disrupted employment growth.

Seems that the jobs reported report just issued doesn't look to good for the Harris campaign, that is if anyone reads it or hears about it.

And when some report does look good, you are quiet or dismissive. Meanwhile, the CNBC headline reads:

U.S. economy added just 12,000 jobs in October, impacted by hurricanes, Boeing strike​

Similarly, Fox Business adds ...

Private sector payrolls contracted by 28,000 in October after LSEG economists projected they would rise by 90,000.​

​

The manufacturing sector saw employment decline by 46,000 jobs in October, which the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) noted was largely due to strike activity in the transportation equipment manufacturing sector. About 33,000 unionized machinists at Boeing have been on strike since early September.​

and

"As expected, the October jobs report shows a big impact from Hurricanes Milton and Helene," said Bill Adams, chief economist for Comerica Bank. "The big one-off shocks that struck the economy in October make it impossible to know whether the job market was changing direction in the month, but the downward revisions to job growth through September show it was cooling before these shocks struck."​

Thanks for your concern.

So Trump supporters are contributing to the effects of global warming then certain of them want to complain about the effects of severer weather in my view. I'm hardly surprised.

As to strikes what do you propose be done in a democracy? Set the military on the workers like a totalitarian?

Why did you forget to mention that the unemployment rate continues at just 4.1%, which is quite low?

And what do you think the administration can do about strikes in the private sector?
