No raises, no promotions, can't raise a family on Trump's prosperity. That's just for rich folks.

if you didn't get a raise or a promotion, you may want to rethink the situation. It may not be the company, just the employee.

How about citing a source for that. The monthly jobs report blows that BS statement all to hell. The poor are seeing their wages grow faster than any other group in the report. Anyone in the market is making bank, and that includes most Americans when you count 401k plans.

1. Jobs? ok what jobs? and what do those jobs pay?

2. How many jobs does a singular person work to help ends meet?

3. Raises for poor workers? Got a list of companies that are just giving raises for the fun of it?

4. Are they put into a higher tax bracket with that windfall of cash falling from the sky?

5.Most Americans?? No one in my family is doing better with their 401.

Since The Traitor Trump got elected the stock market has gone up and down and had some record numbers

But to imply the stock market helps average people on the street is utter BS

Especially when American tax payers are stolen from and their money is given to Big Corperations in Tax breaks

You know WELFARE

Look at the jobs report dumbass. You people never read anything but CNN headlines.

The market is in record territory....constantly. Yeah, it goes up and down. That's how it works idiot. Anyone not making money in their 401k has made some piss poor investment decisions. Any fund that does something as simple as following the DOW is up 60% since 2017; many are up more than that. Sorry your family falls into that "piss poor decision making" class.

When the market does good average people, even ones who aren't in it, benefit. My company is making more profits, therefore, contributing more to growth investment (20% in two years), Retirement contributions, year end bonuses, raises, etc etc. The entire civil engineering and infrastructure industry is growing like crazy, so my company is not on an island here. Just peruse through the report. It backs everything up. Many of the new hires are those average people you think can't help themselves.

Yeah, my company got a tax break. They used it to hire, and grow, same as the other companies. Many had to buy back stock options they sold under Obama, and are a little slow getting back into the growth curve, but this year has been good for that too.

Really? so every company hired more people? Then why did it take me 3 seconds to bring up a list of companies laying people off??

Got that from the AP

I didn't say every company did anything. If you can't read the jobs report then you're not worth having a discussion with. You're to triggered to comprehend any legitimate source of knowledge.

You might want to look up that data again, I think you were looking at the years 2008 to 2016.

as a result of said booming economy, we might be entering a recession soon. i don't pick this up from nbc, but rather an independent, conservative news source.
