james73+FollowJob Market’s Still Kicking—But for How Long?The US added 139,000 jobs in May—more than expected, but it’s clear things are cooling off.

Unemployment’s steady at 4.2%, but hiring is slowing and people aren’t quitting like they used to. Economists are watching closely, warning that the job market’s showing cracks even if it’s not collapsing yet. Is this just a chill, or is something bigger coming? #JobMarket #Economy #Employment #JobCareer31Share

Layoffs are ticking up, especially in the federal workforce, and hiring is slowing down—thanks to tariffs, funding cuts, and general uncertainty. Some companies are hitting pause on US expansion altogether. Economists say we’re not in a freefall yet, but it’s definitely feeling shaky.

jporter+FollowMedicaid Work Rules Could Backfire Big TimeDid you know proposed Medicaid work requirements might actually do more harm than good? A new study says these rules could kick up to 5.2 million adults off health coverage, slash nearly half a million jobs, and suck $59 billion out of state economies in just one year. Instead of helping people find work, it could make things way worse. Experts say investing in job programs works better than tying healthcare to employment.

Joseph Livingston+FollowWhy Rich Folks Might Pay More Taxes SoonHere’s the scoop: America’s credit card bill is out of control, and the usual tricks aren’t cutting it. Even if we axed all the government “extras,” we’d still be in the red. The fix? Looks like the top earners might need to chip in a bit more—think a small bump in taxes for those making serious bank, plus making the wealthy pay Social Security taxes on more of their income. Not fun, but it could keep Social Security checks coming and the economy steady. Sometimes, you gotta pay up to keep the lights on! #MoneyTalk #TaxTime #PersonalFinance #Economy #LifeHacks #Finance30Share
Audrey Rose+FollowJobs Up, But Tariffs Are Looming TroubleThe April jobs report just dropped: 177,000 new gigs, mostly in health care and shipping, but there’s a catch. Tariffs and federal layoffs are starting to bite, and experts say May could get rough. Wages are up a bit, but hiring is slowing and long-term unemployment is rising. The Fed’s stuck between fighting inflation and worrying about layoffs. Basically, things are steady for now, but everyone’s bracing for a bumpy ride ahead.
