:rofl:

Yeah. There is no one left on the unemployment lines because the GOP has stopped counting them. When EVERYONE in the US is unemployed, they will have reached a perfect 0% "unemployment."

I can't believe they're even trying this one again.

1. what does job growth have to do with population growth?
I don't get it. You should be looking at population growth from 18 years ago not from today.

2. I am looking back. We need to generate 150,000 jobs a month to keep pace
with the number of adults entering the job market. IOW, population growth 18 years ago.
