Employment Growth Surprisingly Weak
(Reuters)
08/06/2004 07:39 AMReuters - U.S. employers added a paltry 32,000

in a report far weaker than expected that will come as
unwelcome news for President Bush ahead of the presidential
election.
DISASTROUS
US EMPLOYMENT REPORT FOR FEBRUARY
DISASTROUS
US EMPLOYMENT REPORT FOR FEBRUARY
03/06/2004 02:08 AM

Even the pessimists didn't
expect the horrendous February employment report
issued by the labour department today. Employment grew by an
insignificant 21,000 people, compared to the increase in the labour
force of 150,000, and the forecast just last month from Bush's office
that between 2.6 million and 5.0 million net new jobs would be created
this year. As I
promised, I'll be tracking this each month.
But it's even
worse if you read the whole report. The entire increase in February was a result of hiring by
federal and state governments.
Private sector employment actually declined.
And the labour department also admitted they had overstated January's
and December's employment growth numbers by 15,000 and 8,000
respectively. So total US employment
at the end of February was
actually 2,000 people less than
last month's reported number.
In light of record profits
by many large corporations in recent months,
no one should have any illusions that Bush's tax cuts for the rich
will
ever somehow 'trickle down' to the rest of the people. This data shows
that profit growth is now occurring entirely on the backs of American
workers, and from 'productivity' improvements due to downsizing,
outsourcing and offshoring. Big corporations are already gouging as
much revenue from struggling American consumers for their overpriced,
increasingly imported products as they can, so future 'growth' must
come by cutting and exporting jobs.
Not surprisingly, the
stock market shrugged off this horrible news,
since although it doesn't bode well for consumer buying power, it
allows the Fed the excuse to keep interest rates low for another
month,
keeping the cost of massive corporate borrowing (and the interest cost
on the astronomical and still-soaring Bush debt) manageably low. But
like everything else in our economy, these stock market levels and
interest rate levels are unsustainable. Big bubble ahead.
