"According to economist Steven Rattner of Morning Joe, the United States has now had 26 consecutive months—more than two years—of unemployment under 4%, the longest stretch of unemployment that low since the late 1960s.

Rattner pointed out that immigrants have helped to push U.S. growth since the pandemic by adding millions of new workers to the labor market."

@wdlindsy "...supply side economics has never worked, but it has become an article of faith for Republicans"
This is why GOP administrations drive thé US economy into a ditch every time.

@Barbramon1 I was struck by that good line, too. And you're absolutely right: this is at the core of the Republicans' inability to build a sound economy that serves anyone other than the super-rich.
