Federal jobs report came out today--fell short of expert predictions by, um...just a bit

Most hard-working Americans have their hands full trying to keep food on the table and pay the mortgage or rent to pay attention to numbers coming out of Washington.  So let me help by explaining the significance of the "jobs report" released today by the Biden*Harris regime.

The jobs report is released on the first Friday of every month.  It includes both the number of new jobs added, and unemployment figures, and is a reasonably good indicator of how well the economy is doing.  Typically the economy has to add about 250,000 jobs every month just to keep unemployment from rising.  

As everyone knows, the Biden/Harris/CDC/Democrat-decreed lockdowns has killed the economy for the past year or so, so after 220 million Americans have gotten the vaccine, everyone has been expecting the economy to re-open.  And in the last week before today's report the so-called "experts"--virtually all Democrat shills, since most work for one arm or another of the Dem-loving mainstream media--had been predicting a HUGE boom--that the economy would add between 755,000 and one million new jobs!  

Yay!!! HUGE win for Biden*Harris and the Dems!  Wow, those massive deficit-spending laws--laws giving TRILLIONS of dollars to what critics described as thousands of wasteful pork-barrel projects having no connection with the virus--really did WONDERS for the economy!  So to you conservatives who had the GALL to oppose the great Dem recovery laws: Neener neener neener!!!  We win!

So, how did the April jobs report turn out, eh?  A million new jobs?  Nah, probably a lot MORE, cuz of all the stimulus money Biden*Harris/Schumer/Pelosi gave their supporters.  And so...?

Wait...what?

Y'say the actual number was LESS than the experts were predicting?  How much less? 

Oh, a little bit: The reported number turned out to be about ONE-THIRD of the experts' predictions.  So instead of a million, or 755,000 new jobs, the report showed just about 266,000 new jobs added. 

But that's barely over the number to keep unemployment level.  What happened to the HUGE surge, the boom the experts were predicting?   Being SO far off is...is...is simply un-possible!  How could all the "experts" miss the real result by SO MUCH?

Gosh, it's almost as like those so-called "experts" are really flacks or shills for the regime.

Say, you don't suppose the *brilliant* Dem policy of paying people more to sit on their ass than they'd make working had anything to do with the "stunningly awful" job results, do ya?
