Goober and Lightweight have to be beaming with pride over the accomplishments of their administration.
Mr. Biden told us Covid would be more or less under control in time for Fourth of July celebrations. Yet the Delta variant continues to hamper job growth, throttle travel plans and wreak havoc on the new school year while the White House argues with government regulators over when to roll out booster shots.
Adjusted for inflation, wages have been falling this year. Job growth in August was less than a third of what economists were expecting and the worst monthly increase since January.
The Border Patrol made about 200,000 arrests at the southern border in July, marking the busiest month at the border in 21 years and a 12% increase over the previous month,” the Journal reported in August, citing U.S. Customs and Border Protection data. Detention centers are so overwhelmed that illegal immigrants are being released into the population without being screened for Covid.
n July the black unemployment rate fell by a full percentage point to 8.2%, which is further than it fell for whites, Hispanics or Asian-Americans. However, the decline was not due to more blacks finding work. Instead, it resulted from some 250,000 blacks leaving the labor force and thus reversing a previous trend. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, labor participation rates in July ticked upward for the other groups but declined for blacks. Mr. Biden likes to talk about “equity,” but that’s not what his policies are producing. Growing the welfare state is unlikely to help.
