[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Obviously gops can act like they care about the economy in a better way, and dems cannot persuade people they care about the economy even though they do better according to historical data. Dems need to figure out a way how to present themselves [/quote]

The challenge is that Dems simultaneously believe they want to help the working class  so much more than Reoublicans do but also Dems want working class red staters to die off as wuickly as possible.  They are counterrevolutionary wreckers[/quote]

Oh come on.  I don't want working class red staters to die off.  I want the GOP elites to stop lying to them and brainwashing them.  "illegal Haitians are eating cats and dogs" and "they are kidnapping kids in schools and secretly giving them sex change operations" and "unqualified black lesbian amputee dwarf DEI hires are stealing jobs and promotions from far more qualified white males" and "the deep state" and "Musk exposed the corruption of Biden's administration spending billions of dollars on transexual mouse studies and condoms for Gaza" and "Social security is bankrupt" and "covid is a hoax and the vaccines killed millions" and all that.

Did you read this?  It comes from Bloomberg.

https://www.bloomberg.com/graphics/2023-black-lives-matter-equal-opportunity-corporate-diversity/

“The year after Black Lives Matter protests, the S&P 100 added more than 300,000 jobs — 94% went to people of color.    Published: September 25, 2023”

Does 94% seem high to you?

Tell us what the article said?  
Headlines are meaningless.  Why you ask? Let me tell you

• It doesn’t say what those jobs where
• It doesn’t tell where they were located
• It doesn’t indicated  what type of experience was required
• It doesn’t tell anything about the racial makeup of who applied

These things matter because we might want to know how many of these jobs required one to pick and plant fruits and vegetables, we might want to know how many paid minimum wage and what that wage was, etc etc.[/quote]
 It tells more than you think. 
But the real story is further down:
For years, companies have blamed the lack of a sufficient recruiting pipeline for why their workplaces don’t reflect the country’s racial and ethnic makeup. White men tend to disproportionately hold the highest-paying roles, and hiring managers have long said that qualified candidates from other backgrounds for elite jobs were few and far between. The latest findings show that when under pressure to hire and promote qualified diverse talent, organizations find a way to do it.

[b]But even such big one-time gains — and losses — represent a relatively small slice of the full picture. The share of executive, managerial and professional roles held by people of color increased by about 2 percentage points compared with 2020. That still leaves most companies in our dataset lopsided, with White people holding a disproportionate share of high-paying jobs at S&P 100 companies.[/b]

I doubt similar hiring disproportion happened at medium size companies and small businesses.
