  1. Fighting 7.5% inflation (more like 15%) with a 1% Fed funds interest rate is like stopping a forest fire with a bucket of water. Folks prepare accordingly. Make investment in other not to depend on the government for funds.

  2. People going back to work is not growth and Biden has done nothing but hurt this country and his Crackhead Administration.

  3. At this inflation rate, you'll need 3 full-time jobs to make ends meet.

  4. when I spend more every day to feed my family and it cost me $58 weekly in gas just to get to work. I can honestly tell you y'all are either making these numbers up or these jobs are just people going back to work from the pandemic. THIS IS BS

  5. Inflation is soaring out of control.

  6. Despite the economic downturn,I'm so happy☺️. I have been earning $ 60,000 returns from my $10,000 investment every 20days.

  7. People don't want to work anymore, they think the government will take care of them, and a bunch of illegals will do the work….

  8. FAKE NEWS👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻

  9. Amid concerns of inflation. I can let you know that inflation is more than a concern every time I go to the gas station or grocery store. Good job democrats for ruining our country.

  10. Biden continues to brag but when the rubber hits the road, his out of control inflation policies puts workers in negative cash flow. People are coming back to work out of the need to offset high fuel, food, etc. costs. Good luck as a 5.5% increase in wages is offset by 9%+ inflation.

  11. Everything reeks inflation in the economy…. I don't know who, however a person desires to pay attention to this, you have to stop relying on the government and saving all of your money . Venture into making an investment a few in case you actually want monetary freedom

  12. There’s more illegals coming into the southern border each month….

  13. We shouldn't consider any Job that pays less than a liveable wage. We could have 100% employment but if everyones making less than a liveable wage then its not really a job. You're being exploited

  14. CEO’s will have to take a paycut.

  15. 5:25 artisticas son unos QUINZAA.Monster muchas y un buen ejercicio. Saludos desdeh la Cd. de world 🌹😉💖

  16. Ești un idol SEXTINDER.Uno mereu în inima mea 💋 frumos, dragoste, alegere, cultural. Sunt unul dintret cele mai bune concerte….

  17. ফেলিসিডেস, এটি মিনাংকাবাউ উদাহরণ। 250 sentadillas son unos SEXTINDER.Uno muchas y un buen ejercicio. 5:25 Dadi dejap ver que hay muy buenos ফলাফল 😍👍

  18. C’mon man, the job numbers reflect the American people's returning to the job market after the pandemic.

  19. These numbers are obviously cus its post pandemic, anyone with half a brain would know not to trust the fed and the system in times like these
    , with all the madness going on and the economic fallout from Putins war, its a crazy year to retire if you ask me. My condolences to anyone like myself retiring this year. 30years of nonstop work just to have a crooked system swallow all your earnings.
