Show Notes

The economy has its cheerleaders and detractors, but one thing that is keeping it propped up is the small businesses of America. The Paychex Small Business Employment Watch shows that despite the hourly earnings growth coming in below 3% for 11 straight months, it has stayed consistent at about 2.7%. This is based on real payroll numbers, and with government job numbers not based on that – and missing last week because of the shutdown – it’s important to have reliable job and wage data. Gene Marks shares a new way to measure income data, plus he discusses how data doesn’t reflect AI taking people’s jobs in America as of yet. Listen to the podcast.
