The Employment Situation-August 2021 (bls.gov)
Comments
The US Jobs deficit was 9.5 million in January 2021. This is the shortfall between jobs held in February 2020.
Over 10 million illegal immigrants entered the US since January 2021. I expect they will take government welfare in addition to jobs where they can be supervised by bi-lingual illegals in jobs that don’t require English and drug cartel jobs. Over 2 million legal immigrants arrive each year and 2 million US students graduate each year.

Comments
The 12,686,000 Jobs restored are off-set by the 10.640,000 Job Lay-offs to have 2.046.000 Jobs created in 2021 to 2023.
The US population is 335.9 million. The Labor Participation rate is 62.5%. The US Labor force is 209.9375 million.
The BLS Jobs Data is released monthly to report job starts but doesn’t report job lay-offs. It is quietly adjusted later and recorded unintelligibly in tables near the bottom of the report.
The average work week rose to 34.3 hours in February 2024. The Labor Participation rate is flat at 62.5. These are clues that US citizen employment is flat. The increase is likely due to job gains by illegal immigrants.
