You don’t say….well, I’m being forced out the country in the next few weeks if I can’t land a job on base, which after two months of trying, I’ve all but given up. I still have a couple more weeks on my visa. And despite having been married in Japan twice, with children, I have never “Qualified” for Permanent Residency, so, out I go.

Since the article is about how well the mainland US economy is outperforming expectations and the rest of the world, you are complaining because you cannot find a job in Japan where you live. That sounds like Republican/MAGA logic.

Thank you Biden and Democrats for turning around the former president's destruction of the US economy!

While I give full credit to the President's policies for high US job growth, consider that no President has any input into the workings of the Fed, nor should they, and the economy tanked during the pandemic as much due to decisions made by individual cities and states to restrict in person business. You can't really blame Jupiter (the orange colored gas giant) for states restricting in person dining or forcing theaters and sports venues to close. The recovery from that however has been effective.
