The official jobs numbers for September have now officially been released and they fell far below the expectations of most economists, clocking in at only 194,000 jobs gained.

Approximately 500,000 jobs were expected.

As CNBC reports:

The U.S. economy created jobs at a much slower than expected pace in September, a pessimistic sign about the state of the economy though the total was held back substantially by a sharp drop in government employment.

Nonfarm payrolls rose by just 194,000 in the month, compared to the Dow Jones estimate of 500,000, the Labor Department reported Friday. The unemployment rate fell to 4.8%, better than the expectation for 5.1% and the lowest since February 2020.

The headline number was hurt by a 123,000 decline in government payrolls, while private payrolls increased by 317,000.
“This is quite a deflating report,” said Nick Bunker, economic research director at job placement site Indeed. “This year has been one of false dawns for the labor market. Demand for workers is strong and millions of people want to return to work, but employment growth has yet to find its footing.”
The health of the labor market will likely weigh heavily on the federal reserve as it decides whether or not to raise interest rates in order to combat rising inflation.

      1. CATHOLICS — A hundred nations, a thousand years, all CATHOLIC and all have exactly 100% failure!
        ALL CATHOLICS are traitors to the USA. The Constitution was written when there were only 1 percent CATHOLIC TRAITORS in the USA.
        In 1954 the ‘religious’ took over and inserted the ‘under god’ in the pledge of allegiance.
        Now the SCOTUS are CATHOLIC TRAITORS . The Constitution is being picked apart, and the USA destroyed systematically.
        We have open borders, and have been invaded by 60 million ILLEGAL ALIEN CATHOLIC INVADERS.
        No “C” likes the Constitution. Now, a third of all elected are “C” and wish to destroy the Constitution bit by bit.

        1. “The Constitution is being picked apart, and the USA destroyed systematically.
          We have open borders, and have been invaded by 60 million ILLEGAL ALIEN…”

          Your seeming conservative ideas (some of them) might be right if they are really yours and really conservative. But otherwise you are a miserable bigot. Many of us know that Democrats who are ruining our country are NOT really Catholics. I know as I am probably older than you (well over 70). I am not only a Catholic who despises 1950-style bigots; but unlike you, I am conservative and note that you smell like an undercover Marxist (just like the recent Fakebook “whistle-blower”)!

      1. Now that isn’t fair, I have met quite a few Circus Monkeys and there were all very nice, and far more Intelligent and intelligible than Biden.

  1. What does he expect, get all the same people as Obama and make all the same mistakes as Obama and you’ll have a stagnant economy just like Obama.

    1. We’re in this mess because he got elected and reelected. Tell that to those who thought they were making history with their vote.

  2. LOSER JOE! He’s never had a REAL job in his entire life (other than confronting Corn Pop);why would he know how to create jobs!

  3. Impeach the Human Tater Tot biden and the Bimbo harris for Treason and Sedition against the American People and the Constitution and trying to Destroy America

    1. Biden is just one more CATHOLIC TRAITOR. The Constitution was written when there were only 1 percent CATHOLIC TRAITORS in the USA.
      In 1954 the ‘religious’ took over and inserted the ‘under god’ in the pledge of allegiance.
      Now the SCOTUS are CATHOLIC TRAITORS . The Constitution is being picked apart, and the USA destroyed systematically.
      We have open borders, and have been invaded by 60 million ILLEGAL ALIEN CATHOLIC INVADERS.
      No CATHOLIC likes the Constitution. Now, a third of all elected are “C” and wish to destroy the Constitution bit by bit.

      1. Your comment was totally worthless the first time. Like dead fish, it doesn’t improve by sticking around. If you don’t mind, intelligent people don’t need to hear your worthless bigotry. So comment on Huffington Post – they need some people who might be a tiny bit smarter than they are.

  4. Afghanistan is the SECOND time Biden (CATHOLIC traitor) has abandoned a nation!
    The first nation he abandoned was the USA! Biden (CATHOLIC traitor ) deserted the USA on his first day of his reign’ to the ILLEGAL ALIEN CATHOLIC INVADERS from the south! Now we have over a million ILLEGAL ALIEN CATHOLIC INVADERS scattered around the USA in less than six months after his ‘reign’.
    The only difference between Muslim and CATHOLIC is the continent they destroy. They destroy their own nation, then move to the next. They bring all the failure, ignorance, poverty, crime, corruption, and demand that their ‘culture’ be honored.
    Now he abandoned Afghanistan and so the same story continues!
    Vote for ANY CATHOLIC and the USA will look the same as everything south of the USA. Ignorant, poverty ridden, no infrastructure, crime ridden, corrupt to the core is what CATHOLIC traitors bring to the USA.

    1. Alfie Nitwit: You are too blind and too bigoted to recognize that Biden is NOT catholic. Do some learning (up to high school-level) before you waste our time and space here any more!

    2. You are too blind and too bigoted to recognize that Biden is NOT catholic. Do some learning (up to high school-level) before you waste our time and space here any more!

    3. Unfortunately, you are too blind and too bigoted to recognize that Biden is NOT catholic. Do some learning (up to high school-level).

  5. Just as planned, you can’t get socialist policies put in place unless the people are desperate and Biden’s team is well on their way. Actually the Dems are doing a remarkable job to accomplish their goals which is to usher in socialism on a massive scale, why the Republicans are going along with it is the disturbing part!

  6. On a good day Biden hasn’t got a clue as to where he is let alone what he is doing. Why do you think he always has a handful of note cards with the name of the reporter, the question they will ask and the answer he is to give. Think back when we actually had a President; when did you see Donald Trump with a notes about what he was to say and the answers to the questions being asked. Trump would stop without hesitation and answer questions on his way to somewhere or on his way back, but Biden’s answer is “Someone might get mad if I answer questions.” I may not be able to quote the US Constitution word for word, but to the best of my knowledge there is NO ONE Over the President, except the American People who he like everyone in Washington is there to SERVE. So who is it that will get made at Biden if he answers questions? This is what is really scary.

  7. THIS IS WHAT IS TO BE EXPECTED WHEN YOU PUT A PATHOLOGICAL LIAR, CROOK TERRORIST, TRAITOR AND PUPPET OF CHINA IN THE SEMI WHITE HOUSE WITH A MUSLIM ANTI AMERICAN LIAR CONSTITUTION HATING BILL OF RIGHTS DESTROYER KAMALA VICE TERRORIST AND THE NEW COMMUNIST/MUSLIM PARTY TO RUN OUR COUNTRY INTO COMMUNISM !! VIETNAN VET 67-68
