The economy added 157,000 jobs in May, making it the 44th consecutive month of job growth.
“We had a very weak performance in the first three months of the year,” observes Richard Yamarone of Argus Research, “but now we’re in the middle of the year and economic conditions are extremely bright.”
Jared Bernstein, senior economist with the Economic Policy Institute, notes that “[t]hough job growth of this magnitude is moderate, if it persists, it is likely fast enough to provide consumers with the needed income growth to propel the economy forward in coming months.”
But we still need to raise taxes?
