    Not only are there more jobs than ever before, now there’s evidence that pay is increasing too. Worker pay “rose to a nearly 10-year high in the second quarter.” #txlege #Jobs #economyhttps://www.cnbc.com/2018/07/31/worker-pay-rate-hits-highest-level-since-2008.html …

        Rising Cost of living has wiped those gains out. Plus the amount of wages going up is nothing to brag about. Still well below a living wage in Texas.

        Reality? How about all the Chinese money our country is borrowing to pay for the trillion dollar tax cut for millionaires and big corporations. How about the huge increase in that national debt that Republicans were always so concerned about. And tariffs. The slowing economy.

        The consequences of a tariff war will soon cut the "growth" that you're so proud of in half or worse. Truly a fake economic indicator. Inflation and a market selloff are just around the corner. Get you best holt partner! Fasten you seat belt. Trump is killing the U.S.A.

        You should do everything in your power to block the downloading and printing of ghost guns. These weapons are untraceable and should not be allowed for all!
