It can not keep up this fantastic. 500k a month growth would overheat the economy terribly by the end of the year. It will retreat to a very good 300k a month, and trump worshippers will whine about it.
WTF are you yammering on?? JOBS overheat an economy??
STIMULUS overheat ( inflate) an economy.. what a dumbass apologist post this is
unemployment is almost 6% and that is a "shortage of workers?""Hard to say. I think we need a few more months of these types of numbers. We're still down 7 million jobs from pre-pandemic levels. The parameters of this recovery are different. We have a shortage of workers. That shortage is creating artificial inflation. I think the economy has plenty of room still for job growth without impacting inflation. Add to that the potential impact of infrastructure on employment. This is a different time.

unemployment benefits — which were extended by Mr. Biden’s $1.9 trillion economic aid legislation in March — are discouraging workers from returning to jobs and holding back what could be an even faster recovery.
“Long-term unemployment is higher than when the pandemic started, and labor force participation mirrors the stagnant 1970s,” Representative Kevin Brady, the top Republican on the Ways and Means Committee, said in a news release. “It’s time for President Biden to abandon his attack on American jobs, his tax increases, his anti-growth regulations and his obsession with more emergency spending and endless government checks.”
fter the April report fell substantially short of expectations, Republican governors across the country moved to prematurely end the $300-per-week supplemental unemployment benefits that began under President Donald J. Trump and are scheduled to continue through September under Mr. Biden’s aid package.
Employers added 559,000 jobs last month, below the 675,000 new jobs that economists surveyed by Bloomberg had expected. That gain would be strong in normal times, but it came after a sharp hiring slowdown in April, and with the economy still 7.6 million jobs short of its prepandemic level.

unemployment is almost 6% and that is a "shortage of workers?""
WTF?
and that has nothing to do with inflation..inflation is TOO MUCH MONEY SUPPLY chasing too few goods
the spin is amazingly dumb from Slo-Joe fanatics
TELL THE ECONOMISTS WHO SAY THIS IS A "DISAPPOINTING" NUMBER....FUNNY WATCHING YOU DANCE EVERYDAY TO TRY TO PROP UP PRES.MORON....
Too much demand for employees is a textbook way to overheat the economy. It drives up salaries, and leaves work left undone. That is rising inflation, and falling productivity.
Economists like to see steady job growth.
I am sure there is an economist, and maybe more than one, who supports your insanity... But the vast majority of economists are happy with the growth, and the markets are definitely happy with the growth.
Too much growth too quickly causes the economy to overheat, so a lot of economists are worried that this is too high.
JFCSell another pillow traitor. You don't understand a thing about economics. In general, what Walt says is 100% correct, and you are clueless. Since we have a labor shortage, we can probably add jobs without adding to inflation. But normally, more jobs means more money chasing the same amount of goods. Which is inflationary you DUMB FUCKING MORON. Run along and play. Or take my order.

Correct. The difference right now is that these new jobs are helping alleviate shortages that are causing inflation without adding too much to the money supply. That's the impact of the unemployment kicker. The next job added is always the most efficient job added. As more jobs are added, their impact on those shortages tends to dissipate.
JFC
you need basic econ 101 BADLY
there is no labor shortage - did MSNBC tell you that?
The labor force participation rate, the share of adults working or looking for work, edged slightly lower in May to 61.6%, down from 63.3% in February 2020.
there are workers sitting on the sidelines because they are getting pfat unemployment bennies
and we have historical high unemployment - people ELIGIBLE FOR JOBS that dont have them
that is a labor glut -not shortage!
you are as dumb the a box of rocks
More jobs does NOT mean inflation - fucking idiot. Inflation is just what it says
and "inflated money supply
