Title: Trade Deficit
Post by T And T Garage on 09/06/18 at 12:16:58

This was a huge part of trump's "great businessman" strategy, wasn't it?

Maybe it's still too early to tell, but something seems a bit off...

New data out Wednesday showed the U.S. trade deficit in July widening at its fastest rate since 2015 as monthly deficits with China and the European Union both hit new records . In the year so far, the U.S.’s overall goods and services deficit is up by $22 billion, or 7 percent, versus the same period last year.-Bloomberg

No jog, in fact, it's more simple than even you think.

The only thing trump has done is not muck it up.. yet.  He inherited a strong economy on the rebound.  

He didn't bring any jobs back, the administration (you know, the establishment republicans) crafted a tax cut that he signed, which has kept the momentum up.  Yes, it's been a boon to the corporations, and on its surface looks great.  But to think that trump had much of anything to do with it is folly. Sorry jog, he's just not that smart.

Job growth has been picking up steam since 2009 (something like 75 straight months of growth under Obama).

Don't get me wrong, I love that the economy is continuing on the same path (my 401K and investments are strong), but I'm realistic enought to know that its not because of trump, it's in spite of trump.

So.... what happened under Obama's watch was nothing?  You sure?  Because I saw a whole bunch of new jobs and growth for 75 months.  You might want to redefine your version of "nothing".

Also, what's the percentage of manufacturing jobs compared to ... oh, say 30 years ago?

You see jog, once again it's about CONTEXT.  This is in the same ilk as the "you didn't build that" quote.

Manufacturing jobs are NOT coming back to what they were historically.  That's a fact.  Whether that's good or bad remains to be seen.

But come back to reality and have a look.

The long-awaited pickup in U.S. wage growth may have finally arrived.

Average hourly earnings rose 2.9 percent in August from a year earlier, the sharpest jump since June 2009, the Labor Department said Friday.

The rise last month means worker pay is finally increasing at a noticeably higher pace than the 2.3 percent yearly inflation measure tracked by the Federal Reserve. And that gives households a little more breathing room in their monthly budgets.

Until now, pay increases have accelerated, but gradually. They’ve averaged about 2.7 percent  in 2018, up from 2.5 percent the prior two years.

Economists have expected yearly pay increases to hit 3 percent since unemployment dipped below 5 percent in 2016 as more employers began struggling to find workers.


Wages will go up. Especially as or if illegal immigration drops further. Employers have to attract workers and wages are the last thing they do.
The idea Americans won't do certain jobs is BS. Pay them enough and they'll do it. Democratic illegal immigration policy has always hurt the lowest rungs of the social economic ladder yet they line up behind Democratics and vote for them and all the while they are getting fitted for a noose around their necks.... That's the power of an activist media.

Unscrewing decades of bad policy does not happen in a week. We are heading in a better direction than any of us are old enough to remember seeing. Well, maybe a couple, but not me and I'm 63.
No, TT, the Obama recovery was the weakest and slowest since the depression. QE was horrible. And we aren't finished with the hurt from it. Not all Obama's fault, it's been decades since anyone actually did smart things FOR America. You people oppose Trump out of ignorance of economies and because you hate the man.

From The New York Times:

The headlines for the August job numbers released this morning are nothing but good. Employers added a robust 201,000 jobs, the unemployment rate remained at the rock-bottom level of 3.9 percent, and wages grew the fastest they have in nine years.

There’s no doubt that this is the best economy in quite a long time for American workers, who by a wide range of measures can find a job more easily than they have in a decade …

No one's (at least not me) is saying the economy's not doing good.  That's not what's in question.

What's in question is what trump has to do with it.

Which is mostly nothing.  He's giving autographs at signing ceremonies for the republican establishment.  Reading his twitter feed and listening to his off the prompter speaking, it's pretty obvious that he couldn't possibly understand the complexities of the US economy.

These tax cuts are great for the corporations.  Not the middle class. When you factor in inflation, the rise in wages is just OK.

To be fair to Trump, we must for now relate to the facts, which is that economy has continued the positive trend that began under Obama. I do not think we, with our limited access to inside information, have the means to say whether the good times are a result of Trump's actions or if they are a result despite Trump's (negative) actions. So unless the economy starts to falter and the reasons behind it are blatantly obviously the fault of the policy of Trump, I think one should accept that it could be due to the current line of governing the economy.

That was too bloody many words to say that until proven a disaster, we should accept that the economy is good and that Trump have made a positive contribution.

Also worth mentioning is that the market to a great deal sort itself out, regardless of who is governing. By that I mean the decline under Bush was far from only the fault of that administration, just as the improvements under Obama and Trump are not solely caused by those administrations. The policy can strengthen or weaken the effects, good or bad, but the market itself - locally and globally - have great power in itself.

No, I can't reward trump for any of this.  His administration, perhaps.  but not him.

Even today he lied about the economy - and it wasn't necessary.  “The GDP Rate (4.2%) is higher than the Unemployment Rate (3.9%) for the first time in over 100 years!”
No you idiot - 10 years. (yet he still hasn't taken it down)

You see, he has no grasp of reality.  Even though that news is still fantastic (GDP adjusted to 4.2% in the first quarter and higher than unemployment), he's too lazy to find out what's true and what's not.

He lacks the basic intelligence/intuition to know what is right and what's not.  He lies nearly all the time.  Why?  No one knows.

Yes, the economy is doing great - I'll be the first to say I'm surprised.  But it's completely in spite of this man, not because of him.  Things like the tweet above are just reinforcement of that fact.
