Cost of living is up. Paychecks are not. And workers are not OK.

I did get one thing wrong. I figured Censored would not make up the year's jobs created, but sadly he did. I just checked it out, and his number was totally made up.

In 2025, the US economy added 116k jobs, not 386k(Censored's first claim), or 389k(Censored's second claim).

No, you flat out lied that Trump created 42K for the year.

I claimed that trump created 42k a month for the last 17 months of his term. 150k is neutral, so that is bad. he has been in office for more than a year.

What was over 2 million private sector jobs created? There are 2 million civilian federal employees, so you say that is over 2 million private sector jobs? That is not.

Not pure fiction, but getting closer every day to pure fiction. There are a lot of tricks people are using to hide inflation (shrinkflation and the like), that government is not taking into account. Worse yet, many of the numbers are randomly not being collected.

Nope, you claimed only 42K jobs were added during Trump's second term.

{ trump has in his second term created 42k, which is significantly under almost every other President.}

ROFL

You're crying because 625,000 federal jobs were cut - 317,000 direct terminations and 308,000 positions that were to be filled, cut.

Oh, and no one misses them, because they were useless welfare positions that added zero value.

What?

I said that the decline in federal workforce is used by the party to lower the private sector jobs that were created. In this case by 625,000 jobs.

The thing is, that trick only works once. With the same or more jobs being created - not by Trump, by the private sector, it will not be possible to discount the growth based on federal reductions for 2026.

They lied about you Chinese tampering directly in the 2020 election, even though the Garland DOJ knew full well about it.

The Wuhan Designer Virus® was a crime against humanity - a biological weapon developed by you of the CCP and Joseph Mengele Anthony Fauci, then deployed against civilian populations, killing millions.

Let's look at the full sentence, so we can see what I was talking about:

A good rule of thumb is more than a 150k jobs created a month is good, less than 150k is bad. trump has in his second term created 42k, which is significantly under almost every other President.

So less than a 150k a month is bad, and trump created 42k a month... Which is less than 150k a month.

That would be 32k a month, but is a lie.

Uncensored2008 said:
Got it, since you were exposed blatantly lying, 389,000 is less than 42,000..
Click to expand...
That would be a little more than the other 32k, but is a lie. Actually there were 116k jobs created in 2025, or less than 10k.

Job creation is not keeping up with demographics, so will cause a recession if it keeps up at this pace. Rather than being fantastic, job growth is extremely lackluster. It is not extremely bad, but nowhere near good.

In 2025, there were 116k jobs created. To get 116k overall jobs into 2 million private sector jobs, you would need to have eliminated 1.884 million public sector jobs. Unfilled positions would not count, and anyway, DOGE had absolutely no power over unfilled positions.

Let's take 2.4 million as the starting point in federal employment. If 1.9 million were laid off, that would only leave half a million. That is nowhere near reality.
 
By taking old receipts and going back to buy the same things again, taking into account shrinkflation, it appears that grocery store prices are up over 100% from pre pandemic, I just saw where electricity prices went up 18% last year, I am not sure how much housing prices are up since the pandemic but it is a lot, and the governments are constantly adding taxes and raising them....

People are stretched even before the global recession/depression sets in.
 
One thing I am watching is how private equity buys business and then both jacks up the prices and lowers quality, fleecing the American people.....this has been going on for awhile but the pace has really picked up.

There will soon be mass bankruptcies, many/most of these business are going to disappear as their new owners set out to destroy the brands for short term profits.

Trump-flation

A new survey finds many American workers feel their pay is not keeping up with the rising cost of living.

More than half of workers have less than three months of living expenses saved in case of a layoff.

Financial stress is a major issue, with a majority of employees living paycheck to paycheck.

Heading into the 2026 midterm elections, cost-of-living concerns are a central issue at kitchen tables across America. With Americans paying higher prices for everything from groceries to car insurance, savings are dwindling, credit card debt is mounting and household budgets are stretched thin.

Cost of living is up. Paychecks are not. And workers are not OK.

Workers' biggest gripe: They don’t get paid enough to keep up with the soaring cost of living, a new USA TODAY/SurveyMonkey Workforce survey says.

Administrative overhead is less than 1% of Social Security, and less than 2% of Department of Education. I doubt it is 80% anywhere, but who knows. It is much higher than 2% with the Defense Department, but that is because they are dealing with complex administration. It is the nature of the beast so to speak.

Programming seems easy to me, but I have come to learn that some people cannot program, or cannot program well. If you do not program outstandingly well, you need to know something to program about. Even then, they figure out ways to just find answers without programming.

35 years ago, Microsoft envisioned a world where all office workers would program in Visual Basic to do almost any task. It turns out most office workers could not learn Visual Basic, and most of the tasks they would have to learn could be done without knowing Visual Basic.

Do not get me wrong, having a large number of good programmers does help a society, but it is not the job for everyone.
