    Default Black unemployment

    Black unemployment rates dropped from a high of 19.3% to 7.5% when Obama left office. Under trump, it has dropped from 7.5% to 6%. So under Obama it dropped by 11.8%, and under trump it dropped by 1.5%. For trump to match Obama's record in dropping unemployment (both black and general), he would need to get negative unemployment. That is not possible.

    So far, trump has kept the longest expansion in American history going, but Obama started that expansion, and kept it going for a long time.

    By the way, black unemployment is not at a record low. It has been creepy up for months now. General unemployment has also begun creeping up.

    You, idiots, don't understand that blacks know if the economy tightens its belt, they are always the first notch. Yeah, lots of low paying miserable jobs exist. They are all on edge waiting for the owner to slash jobs because he needs a new yacht.

    why don't you blame democrats for making it impossible for young blacks to become entrepreneurs by demanding occupational licenses and safety certificates? oh, yeah........because you're in favor of those corp owners having yachts over small businesses
    A sad commentary on we, as a people, and our viewpoint of our freedom can be summed up like this. We have liberals and conservatives, Democrats and Republicans, yet those very people look at Constitutionalists as radical and extreme.................so those liberals and conservatives, Democrats and Republicans must believe that the constitution is radical and extreme.

    Back in August. Obama brought black unemployment rates from very high to record low. They continued to drop a bit under trump, and then after August they started creeping up.

    Most people want Clean Water & Air. Third World Countries just throw all their shit in the nearest river, in First World Countries there's Regulations preventing that. It costs Business lots of money to dispose of Waste in a safe manner. Bad on Business ... Good on People.

    Well said. If they want to bring up race its generally white business owners and white people in power who push for and pass regulations to add additional barriers to entry for entrepreneurs, many of whom are minorities. Thus protecting their current power. But it’s done in the name of “protecting the public”

    lol............ DO you support those same folks doing it to other entrepreneurs w/ their patents & armies of attorneys??
    "There is no question former President Trump bears moral responsibility. His supporters stormed the Capitol because of the unhinged falsehoods he shouted into the world’s largest megaphone," McConnell wrote. "His behavior during and after the chaos was also unconscionable, from attacking Vice President Mike Pence during the riot to praising the criminals after it ended."

    Who cares what unemployments rates are? Americans who have jobs, or want jobs, or want an economy that works.
