According to the March employment report, released last week by the federal Bureau of Labor Statistics, the jobs economy in the United States continues to stagnate as economic growth slows and the US-Israeli war on Iran pushes up energy prices.
According to the report, the establishment survey showed an increase of 178,000 jobs month to month, but the household survey showed a decrease of 64,000 workers over the same period. March’s household survey marks the third month in a row of negative job growth. Over the past year, total household employment has fallen by 661,000, with an average monthly drop of 55,000.
