The headline number is revised down ~>50k every month (after the fact). So the real NFP number is ~150k today? (inclusive of +70k government jobs added). So net ~80k private sector? >500k downward revisions (after the fact) in the past year. Unprecedented.

It will be interesting to see how National Treasury will fund the NHI without creating the financial burden to the households. Below is extract from Govt news on NHI. "Where will the funding for NHI come from? - National Treasury will determine the sources of funding for NHI and be approved by Cabinet. Treasury will also determine when any dedicated NHI contributions are introduced or changed in line with the fiscal and economic environment. - NHI will be funded through a mandatory pre-payment system and other forms of taxes collected by SARS and allocated to the Fund by Parliament. - Based on the NHI Bill, NHI will be predominantly funded through general revenue allocations, supplemented by: (1) a payroll tax payable by employers and employees and (2) a surcharge on individuals' taxable income. - The financial impact of the NHI taxation system must not create an increased burden on households compared to the current system. There will be no option for opting out of NHI for eligible people. - Out-of-pocket payments such as co-payments and user fees will not be used to generate additional funding for comprehensive health care services to be covered under NHI. This ensures that healthcare services are delivered free of charge at the point of service and that the most vulnerable are not denied access."

We need to discuss the jobs report. The headlines are completely misleading. In 2023, 60% of all job growth have come from government, health care, and social assistance. Accounting for 1.4m of the 2.25M jobs added in 2023. These are essentially tax payer funded segments of the economy and on the heals of massive growth during the pandemic. This irresponsible fiscal policy on the local, state and federal level has allowed inflation to soar and interest rates to remain high, inflation linger, and accelerates growth in government debt. It is also in direct conflict with the federal reserves efforts to tame inflation. We need monetary and fiscal policies to work together to address real concerns. The economy is thirsty for interest rates to come down to unleash the private sector. We can't afford high interest rates as annually spending to service government debt passed $1T annually . Frivolous government spending has to stop on both sides to the political aisle. Unfortunately, I think government will continue to spend and we are going to be in a world of hurt in 10 years when interest payments is our single largest line item in our federal budget.

I don’t know about you; but I beg to differ. All these reports about billions and trillions are lost on everyday folks struggling to put food on the table. No one can verify such claims. We all know that statistics can be interpreted however the paymaster wishes the researcher to steer the narrative. Such reports have the effect of making people suffer in silence wondering whether it’s just them missing something. And such reports delude those living from hand to mouth into thinking their fortunes should change soon. Nada nada. Not happening. What’s real is the rising costs of living and income failing to keep up. What’s real is GST will be increased from 8% to 9% come January 2024.
