Economy adds 4.8 million jobs in June, surpassing expectations as coronavirus lingers
By Sylvan Lane - 07/02/20 08:31 AM EDT

The U.S. economy added 4.8 million jobs in June, according to data released Thursday by the Labor Department, as the gradual easing of coronavirus-related restrictions helped more businesses reopen and bring back workers.

The unemployment rate also fell to 11.1 percent last month, according to the report, as more workers who were laid off earlier this year were able to return to their pre-pandemic jobs.

Economists expected the U.S. to add anywhere between 1 million and 3 million jobs for the month after the U.S. added 2.7 million in May, according to revised figures, despite widespread predictions of another decline.

If the numbers wasn't so great, they won't be making a big deal about the CCP Virus.

That and Fauci has warned about the next pandemic evolving over in China; some sort of swine flu.  He'd know, he'll be involved in the spread of that one also.   888mouth
Romans 12:16-21

Live in harmony with one another; do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly, do not claim to be wiser than you are.  Do not repay anyone evil for evil, but take thought for what is noble in the sight of all.  If it is possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all…do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

The Friday Before the Fourth of July: Let’s Shut Everything Down Again!
Quote
Could things possibly get any more transparent? A June jobs report that indicates 5 million new jobs were created. Well technically that’s 5 million jobs that were hijacked and held hostage by Cootie Panic were just released. Trump’s economy is attempting to come back with a vengeance. Can’t have that in an election year so time to re-trigger the panic button:

Surge! Surge! Ten  thousand new cases - in a day! A DAY! – in Florida. Alert! Alert! Stop the great recovery reopening of America!!!! NOW!

We are to ignore the fact that this virus was NEVER going to abate until it had run its course (mutating to something either more or less lethal and/or the population developing herd immunity). We are to ignore that with the increase in non-fatal cases the death rate, which was most likely greatly overstated anyway is declining. We are to ignore the fact that this was and continues to be a media induced panic based on what turns out to be baseless predictions by “experts.”

So cue the handwringers and the government dictats: we’re going to shut this economy down if it’s the last thing we ever do. So when a bunch of (otherwise) responsible Millennials and Gen Z’s hooked up at a bar in East Lansing and created a cluster of 185 COVID infections that was the only excuse GG needed to rollback the rollback that had only begun a few weeks ago. ...

Ironically, the last swine flu (2009) was among the least deadly flus in recent American history. 12,000 died from it, as opposed to 50,000 or so in an average flu season.

H1N1 is no longer the menace it used to be.
