If the Biden-Harris administration were forced to stop, today, undercounting the unemployment rates of American workers, including Black Americans, who have the highest unemployment rate of any worker group, it would require the Biden-Harris administration to adopt an economic policy that will grow our economy. What we are seeing in real time is the power of a LIE about our unemployment rates. The lie about our unemployment rates distorts and economically damages every life it touches. President Biden crisscrossed the nation, embracing a rigged and embarrassingly untrue unemployment rate when he stated, “And [un]employment has been the lowest been below 4 percent for the longest stretch in 50 years.”

Black voters saved Joe Biden’s last disastrous presidential run for office. Biden was losing the Democratic Party’s primary in 2020 and black voters stepped up and changed that narrative, making Mr. Biden a winner. Now, this President actively crisscrosses the nation, detrimentally understating African Americans’ unemployment rates, and the unemployment rates of all American workers, professional, blue collar, union, and working-class Americans, making us poorer.
We need Mr. Biden to accept the path, of aligning his administration with economists; acknowledge, and declare the REAL, and (truthful) national unemployment rate, of 6.6% for April. He needs no additional authority to do this. Taking this action will start, an honest, and needed conversation, about a plan to grow our economy, and new Jobs as we did, during the Covid 19 Downturn. Long-term growth and Job Creation is indeed not only possible but doable.
With Job Rates so low right now, you have got to wonder what’s wrong with Joe Biden and the Democratic Party’s insistence of supporting this ridiculous scheme of undercounting our Job Rates. Is it racism?
