The link between low wages and unemployment is usually ignored in politics but taken for granted in the business press. When wages rise, the Fed raises interest rates to slow inflation by doing what? Increasing unemployment. https://theintercept.com/2018/02/08/stock-market-crash-jobs-report-wages/ …https://twitter.com/ocasio2018/status/1019343472703234049 …

Here’s what you need to remember, when everything exists in percentages, they don’t have to actually concern themselves with actual people’s lives. “Only 5% of people work 2 jobs”, 5% sounds a lot better than 15.5 million people.
-
What percentage is “everyone” as she said? 100% You people will blindly accept anything she says no matter how inaccurate.
-
I thought you were joking about fact-checking her on “everyone.” So if your friend tells you that “everyone” was at the party last night, are you the guy who says “Well, actually, there are 7 billion people on the planet and...hey, where are you going?” You earned your mute.

Oh no, Ryan, not that! Anything but that!

Ryan Grim: Ocasio’s words don’t matter. These guys are like trumpians.

Just to clarify, she claimed 100 million are working two jobs. Why do you suppose her numbers were so off?

Again, this number has been DECLINING FOR DECADES. There is something to see: she claimed “everyone” is working 2nd jobs when the numbers are decreasing. Go ahead, cleanup!
