I’m aware of some of this but like I said if I line up and visit 10 companies, only 1 has done the above
If I line 100 companies only 10 maybe have benefited
If I visit 1,000 companies in a year only a small % did this... say 10% or less
So you still have 90% of the economy and the true American bloodline suffers as more illegal ignorant trash floods into eviscerating the middle class.
So I”m only buying a part of your story.
What types of companies? Were they finance sector, manufacturing sector, service related, insurance companies? And where are the jobs located? In a high tax state, low tax state, or average tax state?
If only 10% of companies are hiring, let alone increasing wages; then explain this.
STATE EMPLOYMENT AND UNEMPLOYMENT -- AUGUST 2018
Unemployment rates were lower in August in 13 states, higher in 3 states, and stable
in 34 states and the District of Columbia, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reported
today. Eleven states had jobless rate decreases from a year earlier and 39 states and
the District had little or no change. The national unemployment rate was unchanged from
July at 3.9 percent but was 0.5 percentage point lower than in August 2017.
Nonfarm payroll employment increased in 4 states in August 2018 and was essentially
unchanged in 46 states and the District of Columbia. Over the year, 35 states added
nonfarm payroll jobs and 15 states and the District were essentially unchanged.
Unemployment
Hawaii had the lowest unemployment rate in August, 2.1 percent. The rates in Idaho
(2.8 percent), Oregon (3.8 percent), South Carolina (3.4 percent), and Washington (4.5
percent) set new series lows. (All state series begin in 1976.) Alaska had the highest
jobless rate, 6.7 percent. In total, 15 states had unemployment rates lower than the
U.S. figure of 3.9 percent, 9 states and the District of Columbia had higher rates, and
26 states had rates that were not appreciably different from that of the nation. (See
tables A and 1.)
In August, 13 states had unemployment rate decreases, the largest of which were in
Alaska, Michigan, North Carolina, and South Carolina (-0.2 percentage point each).
Three states had over-the-month rate increases: Maine (+0.2 percentage point) and
Colorado and Wyoming (+0.1 point each). The remaining 34 states and the District of
Columbia had jobless rates that were not notably different from those of a month
earlier, though some had changes that were at least as large numerically as the
significant changes. (See table B.)
Eleven states had unemployment rate changes from August 2017, all of which were
decreases. The largest decline occurred in New Mexico (-1.4 percentage points).
