    Trump just got here. They are leaving due to Obama policies that were implemented years ago. You don't leave America overnight. It's a long process and many companies are heavily invested in that process and it's too late to stop now as plans for departure are in the works. Deals have been signed, property purchased and other properties divested.

    So this is Pres. Obama's fault, ok. Now you said Trump just got here so how is the economy, stock market and low unemployment due to his policies if it takes years for policies to be implemented.

    It's been 1 year.
    If those jobs that left had seen hope in the future, they would've stayed.
    So, the conclusion is, nothing has changed and the future doesn't look better. Yet. And with the R gov't in chaos, it doesn't look to bright either.

    Old debunked numbers based on full time jobs becoming part time jobs and part time jobs being counted as full employment. Good anecdotal evidence is all the snowflakes that stayed in mom's house because they couldn't find employment after graduation from college.

    (CNSNews.com) - Four decades ago, in the mid-1970s, young American adults--in the 18-to-34 age bracket--were far more likely to be married and living with a spouse than living in their parents’ home.

    but that is no longer the case, according to a new study by the U.S. Census Bureau.

    There are now more young people living with their parents than in any other arrangement,” says the Census Bureau study.

    What is more,” says the study, “almost 9 in 10 young people who were living in their parents’ home a year ago are still living there today, making it the most stable living arrangement.”




    The Number 1 living arrangement today for Americans in the 18-to-34 age bracket, according to the Census Bureau, is to reside without a spouse in their parents’ home.

    That is where you can now find 22.9 million 18-to-34 year olds—compared to the 19.9 million who are married and live with their spouse.

    In 1975, according to Census Bureau data, 31.9 million Americans in the 18-to-34 age bracket were married and lived with their spouse.

    Back then, this was the most common living arrangement for that age bracket.





    In 2016, according to the Census Bureau, only 19.9 million were married and lived with a spouse—while 22.9 million lived in their parents’ home.







    In 1975, when calculated as percentages according to the Census numbers, 57 percent of 18-to-34 year olds lived with a spouse, 26 percent lived in their parents’ home, 11 percent lived in an “other” arrangement, 5 percent lived alone, and 1 percent lived with an unmarried partner.




    In 2016, 31 percent lived in their parents’ home, 27 percent lived with their spouse, 21 percent lived in an “other” arrangement, 12 percent lived with an unmarried partner, and 8 percent lived alone.



    The rise in young adults living at home coincided with a decline in the economic status of young men.

    “More young men are falling to the bottom of the income ladder,” says the Census Bureau study. “In 1975, only 25 percent of men, aged 25 to 34, had incomes of less than $30,000 per year. By 2016, that share rose to 41 percent of young men (incomes for both years are in 2015 dollars).”




    “There are now more young women than young men with a college degree, whereas in 1975 educational attainment among young men outpaced that of women,” says the study.




    In the last decade, says the study, the pace of change in the living arrangements of young Americans has been rapid--but has not been uniform across the states and regions of the country.




    “Within the last 10 years, the breadth and speed of change in living arrangements have been tremendous,” it says. “In 2005, the majority of young people lived independently in their own household (either alone, with a spouse, or an unmarried partner), which was the predominant living arrangement in 35 states. By 2015—just a decade later—only six states had a majority of young people living independently.”

    The DOW took off on the day Trump was elected based on optimistic feelings on how the economy would perform as Obama policies were replaced by Trump policies and the economy did the same as business and consumers optimism got people spending and investing again. Perception is reality in large part and that was the initial Trump bump. Now as Trump has systematically repealed Obama executive orders and replaced them with his own the Trump bump is not only continuing but picking up steam.

    JakeStarkey said: Less jobs were created than in each of 2016, 2015, 2014, 2013, 2012,2011, 2010.

    I bet Joseph Walker will come back with cnsnews.

    Don't know, I was just replying to your " if it takes years for policies to be implemented". It doesn't. The individual mandate to buy HC insurance was eliminated with a stroke of the pen.

    When you have already invested millions if not billions in a move, you move. Once wheels this big are set in motion they are difficult to stop.

    Fair enough, give me the list of policies that Pres. Trump implemented.

    So what specific EOs, policies and bills has he put in place that caused this bump.

    Extremely long list but just in energy alone this is a good sample.

    • President Trump withdrew from the Paris Climate Accord.
      • According to National Economic Research Associates (NERA), by 2040 the Paris Climate Accord would have cost the economy nearly $3 trillion and as many as 6.5 million industrial sector jobs, including 3.1 million manufacturing jobs.
    • President Trump directed the Environmental Protection Agency to rescind the Obama Administration’s Clean Power Plan.
      • According to NERA, the Obama plan would have increased electricity rates by as much as 14 percent, costing American households $79 billion.
    • President Trump called for TransCanada to resubmit its application to build the Keystone XL Pipeline, and he then fast tracked its approval.
      • Construction of the Keystone pipeline is expected to support 42,100 jobs and contribute $3.4 billion to the American economy.
    • President Trump ended the Obama Administration’s coal leasing moratorium on Federal land.
      • Federal land accounts for 40 percent of the nation’s coal production.
      • According to the American Action Forum, the moratorium could have cost the country billions of dollars and killed coal industry jobs.
    • President Trump rescinded the Obama Administration’s Stream Protection Rule.
      • The Stream Protection rule would have imposed $1.2 billion in regulatory costs and added 218,000 hours of paperwork on American businesses.
      • The National Mining Association estimated the rule would cost 280,000 jobs across the economy.
    • President Trump directed the Department of the Interior to reconsider the Obama Bureau of Land Management’s Hydraulic Fracturing Rule.
      • The Hydraulic Fracturing Rule was expected to cost the industry $32 million a year, adding $11,400 to the average cost of a hydraulic fracturing well.
    CRITICAL TO AN AMERICAN ECONOMIC BOOM: The United States energy industry is critical to the economy and future economic growth.

    • The energy sector has become a leading driver in hiring American workers, currently employing 6.4 million Americans.
      • Last year, the energy sector added over 300,000 new jobs and is expected to add 198,000 new jobs this year.
      • The average annual wage of workers in the oil and gas extraction industry is over $90,000.
      • Approximately 32 percent of the 6.5 million construction industry employees work on energy or energy efficiency projects.
    • After being a net energy importer since 1953, the United States could be a net energy exporter as soon as 2020.
    • The natural gas revolution in the United States means our country will be a global player in exporting liquefied natural gas.
      • According to the American Action Forum, natural gas exports from 2016 to 2040 could bring in $1.6 trillion in trade value, increase workers earnings by $110 billion, and raise $118 billion in Federal revenue.

    No doubt slave labor globalism is marching on. Good news is, trump refused to sign the new trade agreement with the Pacific countries. We would have cut another artery and bleed even more jobs.

    The only way trump can stop and reverse globalism is with federal corporate taxes. Have two rates. A high rate for MNCs using slave labor, and a super low rate for corporations who add most of the value here to their goods and services. For these trade agreements and the WTO will not allow anything else, as they have much to say in our sovereignty. Or lack of it.

    So all that is supposed to, but has done nothing yet? Sounds like a medicine oil shell game.
