Joe Biden "created" jobs the way covid "created" job vacancies. Maybe time periods with worldwide upheaval should be taken with a little salt.

That doesn't make sense. Could you explain what you mean?

Here we're looking for a change in the slope of that job creation line

We're looking for a change in slope based on overarching economic policy as a means of comparing two political parties. A global disaster is not a policy.

Joe Biden also presided over the largest America that ever existed, and took power at a moment when a huge rebound in jobs was inevitable.
reply
So you haven't disagreed that Joe Biden is the greatest job creating president ever?

You've just helped explain that job creation was necessary due to the disaster performance of his predecessors.

Why are you ignoring Covid? Any president woulda ended 2020 with jobs losses.

Yes, but as a person with good number sense I am pretty good at discounting absolute levels for population change, and I feel like most people aren't any good at that, so I like to mention it. The majority of press articles that are about "[[Thing]] hits record high" turn out to lose their novelty when recast per capita.
