Bad News For Democrats

Unemployment rate falls.

But don't worry, the media will find a way to spin this into bad news for America.

Oh, here it is:

Workers with jobs saw scant wage gains.

Average hourly earnings for jobholders rose to $17.88 in April, a tiny 0.1 percent rise from the previous month. That was less than the 0.3 percent rise economists were forecasting. Over the last 12 months, wages have grown by 3.4 percent.


So, Americans aren't getting richer as fast as they were last year. Wait! Weren't the media trying to convince us that the economy was awful last year too?
