Employers remain reluctant to lay off workers as the pool of potential job candidates dries up and openings remain near record highs, making conditions ripe for wage gains that may spur Federal Reserve policy makers to raise interest rates by year’s end. Filings have been below 300,000 for 84 straight weeks -- the longest streak since 1970 and a level typical for a healthy labor market.
“These numbers are really remarkable given that the labor force is obviously a lot bigger than it was in 1973,” said Patrick Newport, an economist at IHS Global Insight in Lexington, Massachusetts. “They tell us of a relatively healthy labor market.”
At the same time, “even though claims are down, there’s still slack in the labor market,” Newport said.

If there's actual proof of some big coverup by Hillary of some rape of a 13 yr old by Bill then show it. Otherwise? I'm done with this shit. hypotheticals are bullshit. If there's proof, fine.

why do you think Bill wasn't flying around all those times with Epstein. and more importantly, what would you do if there was a major story about lets say, Ted Cruz, on Epstein's private jet 11 times?

It depends, is Cruz running for President?

What exactly is your point with this nonsense?

hmmm.

Your posts about movies - mostly fictions - suggest you have a supple imagination. You're not putting that on display here. Human relationships at the 'retail' level - y'know, human to human - are way more complex than the relationships of public figures with populations.

HRC is one ambitious woman. She's become one flawed, capable public servant. She's had essentially a lifelong relationship with one complicated, conflicted, too often contemptible guy, far more seductive in his way to a broad swath of humanity than the thoroughly disgusting drumpf is to his twisted mob.

So what do you do when it comes down to just two? Because "you" winds up being some part - maybe some indivisible part - them. There's less you can do about that than you may imagine, however high-minded you might be. Crimes are crimes, and you shouldn't hide anyone from facing the music for committing them. And different people have different resources they can draw on to fight charges, and different levels of inclination to abase themselves - and others - to carry on such fights, even inside their own heads. And so....

Another horrible, miserable talent - Woody Allen -put these words into the mouths of one of his more appealing movie characters: "Life is divided into the horrible and the miserable". His character preferred the miserable; the horrible is the stuff that is violently, catastrophically bad, while the miserable merely requires you to endure an endless cascade of happening shit in hopes of an occasional glimmer of something beautiful, or at least good.

So you've gotta ask yourself one question: "Do I feel horrible, or miserable?" Well, what do ya, punk?
