And they will keep trying to repeal or minimize it, because they have no agenda of their own except to hand billionaires more tax breaks on the backs of the 99% of us. Trickle-down has been sold to their constituents as a economic theory, not as theft from the working man.

The revisions were huge. May went from 144k to 19k, June went from 147k to 14k, and the 73k for July will most likely be revised downward as well (maybe negative?). It almost seems like they are trying to hide the downward trend in employment. Imagine that.
