   The Trump economy is the answer to all the doom and gloom.
   At the end of the day, no matter what color strip you wear, a good job is better than anything. It give people hope, and respect and self worth and lifts all from bottom up.
   This is the best news for 2019 and I hope all democrats are cheering...
   It is working and lets keep it up.
   Thank you President Trump.
   You are the new Reagan of the 21st century.

            Ha! You voted for Trump, Jack. You'll soon reap the benefits of doing so when Mueller gives his report.
            
            As far as the new jobs report, are they low or high paying occupations or do you know?

               No I don’t know and Does not matter. Better job numbers is good for all including me who is retired. By the way, in case you have not been following, I did not vote for Trump.
               I had my reservations but now that he is president, I like what he is doing...he is more conservative than many past conservative politicians and have done more for this country in 2 years than Reagan did in his first term...that is saying a lot.

                  Saying a lot but not talking about how he pissed off our allies and sided with dictators, Jack. Reagan would never do that and you know it.

                     He open a dialog with North Korea. He terminated the Iran nuclear deal which was a disaster. He killed off ISIS which Obama refused to do or even ack... what else did Trump do?
                     He renotiated NAFTA and working to a better deal with China which has been cheating the west all along these many years.

                        He gave North Korea a boon with recognition on the world stage and hasn't got anything in return except a few bones. He hasn't killed ISIS as the generals will tell you, no matter what Rush says.
                        
                        
                        The deal with NAFTA is similar to the one we already had, so big whoop.
                        
                        
                        MAGA seems to stand for "Make America Gangsterland Again", if you ask me.

                           No I didn't.  Here: your comment any mine
                           
                           Randy As far as the new jobs report, are they low or high paying occupations or do you know?
                           
                           Wilderness Are you saying that staying on welfare, living off of forced charity from others, is better than working a low paying job?
                           
                           If you read carefully, I asked whether a low paying job was worse than charity, in your opinion.  You see, IMO any job is better than none, regardless of how low the pay (assuming the job and the pay are legal).  You seemed concerned that the new jobs were all low paying, thus the question.
                           
                           But after watching the news, no they are not all low paying jobs.  Construction was listed as being a good "gainer" and those are typically pretty good pay.  And the news went on to mention that wages country wide rose 3.2% (biggest in a decade) if that's of any interest.

                              In the first place I didn't ask you whether the jobs were high or low paying. I asked Jack and in no way suggested they were either. You said it was better than being on charity or welfare, suggesting they went from those handouts to their new jobs.
                              
                              
                              I simply asked if you think that is so, but never mind. I didn't disparage anyone who found a new job and am proud for their good fortune.

                                 Then we can agree on that if nothing else.  Although I would put "good fortune" at the bottom of the pile; such things are generally due to hard work, not luck.

   I can appreciate a good jobs report and  economy and still know that Trump is a lying POS who I wouldn't trust with my dog much less my country.
   
   We can do better, and I trust he will be gone after the 2020 election if not before.
