<p>The United States added an estimated 528,000 jobs to the <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/economy">economy</a> in the month of July, <a href="https://www.bls.gov/news.release/empsit.nr0.htm">according</a> to the Bureau of Labor Statistics.</p>
<p>The unemployment rate also ticked down to 3.5% from 3.6%. The report smashed some economists&#8217; <a href="https://www.wsj.com/livecoverage/stock-market-news-today-08-05-2022-jobs-report">estimation</a> of 258,000 jobs added and the U.S. economy has now added back all jobs lost due to the effect of COVID-19 measures.</p>
<p>The robust jobs report will likely give leeway for the Federal Reserve to introduce more interest rate hikes in September for the third straight time to help curb inflation.</p>
<p>While more than half a million jobs were added to the economy, the data indicates that wages are not keeping pace with rising inflation. According to the BLS, average hourly earnings jumped 0.5% in July. In June, the American economy experienced a record high inflation of 9.1% as consumer prices skyrocketed across the economy.</p>
<p>In reaction to the news, former Trump adviser Steve Cortes tweeted, &#8220;Good Jobs headline number. Not real job creation &#8211; just finally back to pre shutdown levels.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;But…by far the most important reality for Americans &#8211; esp middle and lower income citizens &#8211; is that Real Wages continue to crash, adjusted for the Inflation these &#8216;experts&#8217; created…,&#8221; he added.</p>

<p>The labor force participation stayed around 62.1%, an economic sign that some economists say is evidence that the economy is not as strong as the leading job figure may indicate.</p>
<p>&#8220;The gain of 528K #jobs in July as the labor force participation rate fell to 62.1, means that most of the new jobs went to people who already had jobs,&#8221; Peter Schiff wrote. &#8220;Collapsing real wages force many workers to moonlight to pay the bills. If the labor market were strong one job would be enough.&#8221;</p>

<p>Heritage Foundation expert E.J. Antoni also told The Daily Caller that the data is not as strong as it seems.</p>
<p>“Despite a blockbuster headline number, the labor market data continues to be a mixed bag,&#8221; he <a href="https://dailycaller.com/2022/08/05/u-s-economy-blows-the-roof-off-expected-job-gains-in-july/">explained</a>. &#8220;The labor force participation rate fell yet again in July, artificially pushing the unemployment number down.”</p>
<p>The numbers also crushed the White House&#8217;s own predictions.</p>
<p>On Thursday, White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre claimed that the economy was in a &#8220;transition&#8221; and &#8220;instead of that record-high breaking job numbers, that we&#8217;ve been seeing every month, in the realm of 500,00 &#8211; 600,000 jobs on average per month  we&#8217;re expecting  it to be closer to 150,000 jobs per month.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;That would be a sign of a success of this transition&#8221; she added, noting that a smaller jobs report would be a sign of a &#8220;healthy economy.&#8221;</p>
