Maybe one that provides facts rather than supposition presented as fact? You know, like actual educated people would look for, rather than falling for faux news-like bull****?
wooo more supposition, I'm convinced.
So I googled this and I found a few other sites quoting the "BLS" but with no link to the BLS report. I wonder why?
Because it doesn't ****ing exist. What does exist is a
preliminary report regarding the changes and it does not come anywhere close to saying what those articles are. No wonder they didn't link to it.
Try again, maybe with less foaming this time?
edit: here's a great link that actually provides sources:
