[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When I saw the headlines I went straight to AI to inquire about revisions. Here's what gemini says

"Based on February 11, 2026, BLS data, the 2025 annual benchmark revision drastically lowered US job growth, showing only 181,000 jobs added for the year, down from the initially reported 584,000. This significant downward revision for March 2025 and subsequent months, [b]totaling roughly 862,000 to 898,000 fewer jobs[/b], indicates a much weaker labor market than previously thought.

Wow just wow. Clearly tariffs accelerated layoffs. Remember economic data are often captured by lagging indicator.

My quick math tells me that in 2025 we added an average of 15k per month wow just wow.

Our unemployed citizens were not lying when they complain that they can't find jobs. And they are still struggling.

If I were a Democrat I wouldn't focus on these numbers. I will focus on the actual people struggling tp find jobs. The folks who need to put food on the table. Citizens can care less about entries in an excel spreadsheet.

But I am.putrong too much faith on a party that has proven to simply be incapable of seizing the moment. Their recent victories are not the result of them suddenly doing something, rather folks are just voting against the folks currently in power.

There's been massive revisions down for several years now. The model broke with covid. [/quote]
