Todayâs Top Stories From the Breitbart News Desk
Wall Street breathed a sigh of relief today when the July jobs data showed that the labor market did not fall apart. More than that, the economy added more jobs than expected – 1.8 million jobs vs. 1.5 million expected and 186,000 estimated in Wednesday’s terrifying ADP private payrolls release – and the unemployment rate fell by more than expected.
This was a good report. One likely reason is Americans are reopening the economy despite rising coronavirus infections. In places across the U.S., people are determined to get back to a tolerable way of life, even if that isn’t what we would have called normal before the pandemic. Another reason: Billions in government aid poured into households and businesses.
Unemployment is still extraordinarily high, at 10.2%. But it is moving in the right direction and moving down about as fast as possible given that much of the economy is still constrained by anti-coronavirus measures. That provides breathing room for the White House and Republicans on Capitol Hill, as a reversal in the economy so early into the reopening would have made the November sales pitch far more difficult.
But they probably should not get overconfident. The Trump administration’s extraordinary support measures for the economy provided billions of dollars of spending power to households and businesses in July through enhanced unemployment benefits and the Paycheck Protection Program. The former expired at the end of July, and most businesses have run through their PPP loans.
Gambling that the economy can continue to expand without this support is an unnecessary risk right now given that the government can pay for any expenditures with deficits funded at record-low interest rates. So it’s a relief that Trump, at least, does not seem to want to take those odds and says he’ll go ahead with putting relief measures in place by executive order if Congress can’t agree on a plan.
One piece of news that the mainstream media will surely overlook is that black Americans saw greater jobs gains in July than whites or Hispanics. In fact, the unemployment gap between blacks and whites remains near all-time lows. That, however, doesn’t fit the narrative in which the left is battling against the “white supremacy” of the Trump administration.
