Trumpers talk about low unemployment like it was the only thing that mattered.
Seems people have forgotten the term, "overheating economy," that was oft used during the Clinton Administration, in which interest rates were raised in order slow the economy down including hiring, aiming for a minimum 4.3% unemployment rate in order to maintain healthy economic growth.
It's ironic, but Welfare, etc, is actually needed in order to sustain growth and keep prices down. Should the pool of ready unemployed should shrink too much, workers get increasingly harder to find, wages go up, and thus so does inflation.
