In December, the U.S. labor market purportedly added 256,000 jobs, exceeding economists’ predictions. This performance appears to have surpassed the anticipated increase of just 153,000 jobs. Additionally, the unemployment rate dropped to 4.1 percent, defying expectations that it would hold at 4.2 percent.
However, as The National Pulse has previously reported, the Biden government has a track record of releasing fake employment numbers, only for them to be “revised down” in subsequent quarters.
Further analysis revealed most new jobs created under the Biden government are going to new migrants, rather than American workers.
Ger Doyle, U.S. country manager at ManpowerGroup, viewed the December jobs report positively, calling it a promising indicator. Nonetheless, Doyle cautioned that the labor market might face hurdles until inflation is more contained, potentially affecting hiring, layoffs, and job growth.
The Bureau of Labor Statistics highlighted that significant job gains occurred in the health care, government, and social assistance sectors. Retail companies also saw an increase in employment, following a decline in November.
