Thank You President Biden and congressional Democrats for leading America out of the worst economic conditions since the last time there was a republican president.
Yep....I've been looking at wages round these parts....most entry level jobs are all above $15/hour. Looking good for workers!

I'm pretty sure you meant "now" above $15/hour.
And yes, rising wages are good, but only if the Build Back Better Framework is also passed to make sure all of those gains aren't eaten up by medical and child care costs, etc.

Unemployment is low because people have left the workforce. Workers have an almost all time high as far as savings go because they made so much money during the shutdown that they don't need to work. 10.4 million unfilled jobs. Labor force participation rate at 61.6 which, excluding the shutdown, is the lowest in over 20 years.
