President Biden’s Inflated Job Numbers Defy Reality

I find it quite interesting how the Left cannot help but spread falsities about things that are so basic a child could understand.

I’ve recently seen on Twitter from a mainstream Leftist organization falsely praising President Biden for the “creation” of over 4 million new jobs since taking office. It is quite appalling the utter absurdity of a statement that is so overtly rooted in fiction. It is even more mind-boggling that there are people who don’t understand very basic concepts and are blinded to intellectual honesty. Yes, this report is flawed, and though very misleading, it seems to be true on the surface. However, let us delve into this.

When looking at the graph alone, it insinuates that President Biden has created millions of new jobs, but this misleading post does not seem to offer the “fine print” that is necessary to understand it in full context. You see, these are people GOING BACK TO WORK due to the economy opening back up after the COVID outbreak, which does not at all speak to “job creation,” as this post so deceptively states. Let me give you this example to further explain my point.

You are a human being, breathing God’s free & fresh air (without a mask, I hope). A mugger then comes up behind you and proceeds to put you in a chokehold, cutting off the very air you have undoubtedly taken for granted. You thrash about in an effort to free yourself, gasping for the slightest bit of oxygen to fill your lungs as you feel yourself suffocating to death. Just before you lose all consciousness, the mugger releases you from the chokehold and you sink to the ground gasping for the air you have been deprived of due to someone else’s actions. An onlooking spectator sees the whole thing, runs up to you and states emphatically, “aren’t you glad he just created a new opportunity for you to breathe?” Wouldn’t you look at this person confused-like and state something to the fact that you were breathing just fine until the stranger decided to choke you, for which him letting you go didn’t create a NEW opportunity to breathe, but allowed you to RESUME breathing? An act you were ALREADY doing before the mugger so rudely interrupted. Wouldn’t the bypasser be an insane person for desiring accolades for “creating a new opportunity for you to breathe?”

Indeed they would be! In the same way, the mugger does not deserve praises for letting you resume breathing after cutting off your air supply.

President Biden does not deserve to be commended for releasing the American people from his grasp on our lives, much less for some ridiculous narrative of a lie concluding he CREATED the available jobs for which society has been returning to. The sheer and utter audacity of the Left to promote such an overtly false narrative is beyond me. Do not fall for it, ladies and gentlemen, and make the truth known, so others don’t fall for this lie either.
