Iowa Economy
Improves
Even though Iowa’s
unemployment rate went
up by 800 Iowans from
4.0% in June to 4.1% in
July, the economy
actually improved.
According to Iowa
Workforce Development,
there are 1,593,600
Iowans working, an
increase of 5,700
compared to June. You
may recall that the
unemployment rate only
counts people looking for
work. That is why we can
have an increase in the
unemployment rate at
the same time as we have
an increase in employed
Iowans.
As I have pointed out
before, when we have
more people looking for
work, that is a good
thing, especially when
we have so many
employers looking for
people to hire. We need
to have people working,
. producing things, rather
than collecting unem-
ployment checks. The
labor force participation
rate increased from
66.6% to 66.9% in July.
This is a better statistic
than the unemployment
rate for determining how
well the economy is
doing.
You may recall that
the national numbers are
an unemployment rate of
5.4% and a labor force
participation rate of
61.7%.
The biggest concern
now is the likelihood of
increasing inflation if the
federal government
continues to pump more
money into the economy.
Unfortunately, there is
not a lot we can do to
protect ourselves here in
Iowa if .we have in-
creasing inflation caused
by actions at the federal
level.
As always, please feel
free to contact me with
your ideas or concerns.
