"Almost all the job growth we have seen lately has come in one area: health care. I made this graph to illustrate: It shows that while we keep adding more jobs in health care, as a whole the rest of the economy has been adding little or nothing in new jobs. In fact, in nine of Trump’s first twelve months, the rest of the economy lost jobs."

@wdlindsy@toad.social Most of the added healthcare jobs in the US are management jobs, not people who touch patients.
