Is the Economy improving?
Motley Wrote:Since you refuse to click the link that clearly answers your questions I'll post a bit of it for you:

A strong trend: It’s never wise to get too excited, or too depressed, over one month’s jobs report. The month-to-month figures are volatile and subject to revision. But though November’s 321,000 jobs may turn out to be an outlier, the longer-run trend is nearly as strong. This was the 10th consecutive month of job growth over 200,000 — the first time that’s happened since the Clinton administration. The economy has added 2.7 million jobs over the past year, and the year-over-year pace of job growth has shown a clear acceleration in recent months.

Not just jobs. Good jobs: One of the fears in the recovery has been that while the economy is creating more jobs, it isn’t necessarily creating the right kind. But that’s been less true in recent months. In November, job growth was spread across industries, with construction, manufacturing, finance and other generally well-paying sectors posting strong gains. Meanwhile, fewer people are getting stuck in part-time jobs. The number of people working part time because they can’t find full-time work is at its lowest level since the recession (although it remains high by historical standards).

I guess these are all just made up though. Dang economy.

I didn't read the link and evidently you didn't either.

From the article you posted: "It’s never wise to get too excited, or too depressed, over one month’s jobs report. The month-to-month figures are volatile and subject to revision."

Even the writer of the article said that the numbers are subject to revision. You were the one on here gloating that the economy was improving, especially in November. Considering all the revisions that are to be made, who knows how we actually did for November. It's never wise to look at a report when it first comes out and take it for granted.

It would be nice to see some legitimate growth in the economy, but that won't be happening anytime soon. I see the quote that "The number of people working part time because they can’t find full-time work is at its lowest level since the recession." Of course that is the case in that scenario because more and more people have stopped searching for work. Not to mention, a lot of these part time employees WERE working full time before their hours were reduced.
