Manufacturing employment trended up in August 2022. According to the latest report from the Bureau of Labor Statistics at the Department of Labor, the U.S. manufacturing sector hired 22,000 more people in August, mostly in the durable goods industries. The Bureau reported that manufacturing has added 461,000 new jobs so far over the year.

Whilst at the same time white collar jobs are disappearing.

Yes, so many service/bureaucrat jobs are either being terminated or off shored, they either dont add anything or someone somewhere else is willing to do it cheaper, and corporations have seen through COVID how few of the jobs actually need to be filled by someone in America . Plus these companies are not even really American companies anymore, they dont give a fuck about us.

67,000 jobs added in 2 1/2 years. That's...something I guess. I loved how the article kept trying to link Biden with Trump as far as economic attitude, they did it more than once. Yep, Joey is in trouble.

You can always become an IRS auditor... Only 87,000 are going to get added... No experience or education needed! You only need be a loyalist to the state and Leftist politics to apply!

You do however need to be comfortable carrying a gun and shooting citizens.

There is a retired IRS inspector here from San Diego, good guy. I don't know what he was like if you were sitting on the other side of his desk though.

In Trump's First 30 Months, Manufacturing Up By 314,000 Jobs Over Obama; Which States Are Hot?

A new report by EPI Senior Economist and Director of Trade and Manufacturing Research Robert E. Scott finds that President Trump’s trade policies have failed to curb offshoring—and they have not addressed the root causes of America’s growing trade deficits and the decline of American manufacturing.
In addition to the Trump administration’s overall weak trade agenda, COVID-19—and the administration’s mismanagement of the crisis—has wiped out much of the last decade’s job gains in U.S. manufacturing. Scott explains that unless steps are taken now—to reform our trade policy, to curb dollar overvaluation, to eliminate tax incentives for offshoring, and to rebuild the domestic economy—there won’t be a comeback.
“The Trump administration has taken credit for ‘reshoring’ manufacturing jobs, but the data show that isn’t true. Nearly 1,800 factories have disappeared under Trump between 2016 and 2018,” said Scott. “Additionally, the U.S. trade deficit in manufactured goods rose significantly between 2016 and 2019. In fact, the real U.S. trade deficit has increased in every year since 2016, reducing GDP growth by roughly 0.25% annually over the past three years. Compounded with the devastation left by the coronavirus pandemic, the blue collar manufacturing workers need serious help from policymakers.”

“If President Trump wants to take credit for the job growth at the tail end of a decade of recovery from the Great Recession, then he must also own this collapse, thanks to his administration’s mismanagement of the pandemic—including a refusal to organize an effective national response,” said Scott.

Ooops

Any increase in manufacturing is great, but as the piece states...we aren't bringing jobs back from overseas yet.

I think Covid has highlighted the need to manufacture here, and many companies are taking note.

The problems seems to be a lack of labor, which ought to pair nicely with the supposed invasion by 'illegals'.

Remember when the idiots claimed that immigrants are 'stealing American jobs'?

We now see that Americans simply refuse to work.

Let the immigrants fill vacancies, the way they always have.

From the article:

"Biden has also maintained many tariffs on Chinese imports imposed by Trump."


I notice a number of people who found religion on free trade a couple of years ago speaking out against the tariffs have gone radio silent. The tariffs were bad policy then and they're bad policy now but to these folks it wasn't about the policy, it was about the person implementing them. Thus the silence today because they are actually ok with the tariffs.

I'd say there are plenty of fascists on the Left--including some on this very board--that would have no qualms about doing that...

Why are you lying? This isn't true. You know it's not true, yet you post it anyway.

This is why people have a hard time trusting anything you write.
