Original Note:
While true that the number of jobs added since 2021/22 was +\- 13M, Biden counts people returning to jobs after Covid as "jobs created". 2.2M is more accurate. Costs are up; when Biden took office, inflation was 1.4%. Inflation in 2023: 3% to 6.4%/ month. https://www.statista.com/statistics/273418/unadjusted-monthly-inflation-rate-in-the-us/ https://www.usinflationcalculator.com/inflation/current-inflation-rates/ https://www.cnn.com/politics/live-news/biden-state-of-the-union-2023/index.html https://www.bls.gov/charts/employment-situation/civilian-employment.htm
