By Jacob Palmieri - March 9, 2022



Joe Biden’s economy is a disaster.
Americans are not getting a pay raise due to rising inflation and rising gas prices. Employers can’t fill needed jobs due to workers resigning and quitting.
4.3 million quit or changed jobs in January. This is still in record-high territory.

From The Washington Post:

Some 4.3 million Americans quit or changed jobs in January, edging down a bit compared to December but still in record-high territory in yet another sign that workers continue to have the upper hand in a tight labor market.
Employers hired 6.5 million people in January, while reporting 11.3 million job openings that month, as the omicron variant picked up speed in many parts of the country, according to a new report by the Bureau of Labor Statistics.

The number of people who quit their jobs decreased slightly, by 151,000, in January. Even so, quits in the finance and insurance sector rose by 30,000, an indication that white-collar workers are looking for new opportunities as many offices move ahead with reopening plans.
