Jobs were only briefly “not a big concern” for most of America. The Trump economy had reached what technically amounts to full employment. Then the Dems and Globalists killed it with this COVID fraud and jobs are a thing again. And Joe Biden has promised to kill a whole bunch of them if elected.
Democrats are not fans of free and open markets. They love meddling. Licensing that restricts access and creates cartels, regulations that limit opportunity, and jobs that demand tithing to their union-boss political allies. They also think they know what every starting hour of labor in every occupation is worth. They don’t.
According to the Bureau for Labor Statistics New Hampshire has lowered its unemployment rate by 3.6 points through June. The 38,000 people who have returned to work drove the unemployment rate down from 15.4% to 11.8%.
I’d like to thank Democrats for being so accommodating. Whether we mean the local, state, or federal Democrats in elected office, the contrast is much the same. Republicans want to make citizens great while Democrats want to make big government greater (and more grating).
June saw another record jump in employment, which is good news. But it is good news the same way that opening a dam lets the water take its natural course. The increase is a result of the government getting out of the way and the economy doing what it has wanted to do for months.

Democrats made hysterical assertions about reopening the economy, and blood on our hands. Their noise is proving to be hysterical wailing and gnashing of teeth. OMG… Democrats are petrified of the prospect of an economic recovery. But it may be out there.

Over two months later, we continue to face serious restrictions that limit our ability to earn a living, that restrain our freedom of assembly, and that restrict our right to worship …

John Klar at American Thinker is thinking about the death knell for thousands of jobs in Vermont. COVID-19 may have killed 55 people (if that’s what killed them), but many thousands of livelihoods are on the line in the Green Mountain State, which got me thinking. Is anyone keeping track of the Granite State?
All I hear about in economic news is the unemployment rate and how high it is. Surprise! “Experts” discuss what will happen when we get back to normal. At least the experts admit we are not in normal times. Thank God for small admissions.
