Ok, Who gave this thread a negative star? How can you not like this news?

I honestly think there's a poster who does nothing but one star threads all day err day. I can post a thread and within minutes, there's a one star. Hell, I haven't even voted on it, yet. It's ridiculous.

Notice how they took the time to neg rep the thread, but wouldn't actually post in it.

The U.S. labor market is charging forward.

The unemployment rate rose to 3.9% in December. The unemployment rate was 3.7% in November, the lowest overall unemployment level since 1969.

Average hourly earnings – a closely watched metric of inflation pressures in the economy – increased 0.4% over last month and 3.2% over the previous year. This exceeded expectations of wage growth of 0.3% over last month and 3% over last year. Wages rose 3.1% over the prior year in both November and October.
