Kathryn Anne Edwards: 我认为我们正在见证美国劳动力市场的放缓。虽然最新的就业报告显示非农就业人数有所增加，失业率保持稳定，但这份报告并不强劲，而且存在一些令人担忧的细微差别。首先，过去两个月的就业估计被向下修正了约10万个工作岗位。其次，许多人离开了劳动力市场，这通常发生在他们感到灰心，找不到工作时。我们已经知道，虽然失业率仍然很低，但招聘也在下降，这意味着我们现在基本上有两个劳动力市场：一个面向在职者，一个面向求职者。大部分增长来自医疗服务业，这反映了人口老龄化和医疗保健消费的增加，而不是经济的强劲。

Shownotes Transcript

Kathryn Anne Edwards, PhD economist and Bloomberg News columnist, joins the show to unpack the latest jobs report and what it reveals about the state of the labor market. She shares her take on whether AI poses a real threat to jobs and explains why the effects of tariffs are so tough to time. Kathryn also discusses how the GOP tax bill could reshape the economy, what she believes the federal minimum wage should be, and the policies she thinks could help close the wealth gap.
