They haven't done that. Maybe they will, certainly it seems they would like to, but the number of people they've deported so far is insignificant relative to the size of the workforce.

No, it just hasn't cycled through yet. Even all the Fed EEs fired haven't drawn UI en masse yet as sev runs out for most in fall. Maybe learn about early and lagging indicators? Consumer-related is lagging, producer-related is early. PPI and ISM have all been down in 2025 reporting. Consumer = next.

I think you are responding to something I didn't say. I made no comment on the future course of the US economy. I was making the observation that the number of deportations thus far is not large enough to have a meaningful effect on the workforce.
