More on Today’s Bogus Job Numbers from the BLS – “There’s Never Been a January Seasonal Adjustment of This Magnitude”

Today’s job numbers are as shocking as Joe Biden’s win in the 2020 Election – meaning they’re garbage.  Here’s more on the unrealistic and dishonest reporting coming from the BLS.

    Mark Twain is credited with: ‘There’s lies, damned lies and statistics.’ Caveat emptor!
