With inflation easing faster in recent months, Fed policy has become more restrictive. Concerns are mounting that the Federal Reserve may have once again lagged behind the curve. The latest jobs report provided little reassurance to investors, as employment growth appears to be decelerating more rapidly than anticipated.
In August, the economy added 142,000 jobs, but revisions for June and July reduced the three-month average to just 116,000 jobs, down from 211,000 jobs in the prior period. Year-to-date, the number of jobs added is only 69% of the total from the same period in 2023. Alarmingly, the majority of these new jobs are concentrated in just two sectors: government and health services.
Given the significant role of the housing sector in GDP and ongoing housing shortages, the notable rebound in construction employment in August, following a decline in July, provided some solace.
What’s causing the slowdown?

Controlling Protein Is One of the Globalists’ Primary Goals
Between the globalists, corporate interests, and our own government, the food supply is being targeted from multiple angles. It isn’t just silly regulations and misguided subsidies driving natural foods away. Bird flu, sabotaged food processing plants, mysterious deaths of entire cattle herds, arson attacks, and an incessant push to make climate change the primary consideration for all things are combining for a perfect storm to exacerbate the ongoing food crisis.
The primary target is protein. Specifically, they’re going after beef as the environmental boogeyman. They want us eating vegetable-based proteins, lab-grown meat, or even bugs instead of anything that walked the pastures of America. This is why we launched a long-term storage prepper beef company that provides high-quality food that’s shelf-stable for up to 25-years.
At Prepper All-Naturals, we believe Americans should be eating real food today and into the future regardless of what the powers-that-be demand of us. We will never use lab-grown beef. We will never allow our cattle to be injected with mRNA vaccines. We will never bow to the draconian diktats of the climate change cult.
Visit Prepper All-Naturals and use promo code “veterans25” to get 25% off plus free shipping on Ribeye, NY Strip, Tenderloin, and other high-quality cuts of beef. It’s cooked sous vide, then freeze dried and packaged with no other ingredients, just beef. Stock up for the long haul today.
Important: Our sponsors at Jase are now offering emergency preparedness subscription medications on top of the long-term storage antibiotics they offer. Use promo code “Rucker10” at checkout!
