The economy overall is in relatively good shape, but the labor market isn't, according to Brian Gottlob.
Gottlob is the director of New Hampshire Employment Security's Economic and Labor Market Bureau and principal of PolEcon Research, a Dover-based economic research company. He presented his annual economic forecast last week at an event presented by the Greater Dover Chamber of Commerce.
Gottlob said it's "almost impossible" to discuss the economy without "having some sort of political motive ascribed to it," adding he's "not a political person."
Gottlob did not mention President Donald Trump by name during his presentation. However, Trump's policies were prominent in Gottlob's remarks. Gottlob said when talking about the economy, "and some of the political choices that are affecting it, (it's) not from a political perspective, but from an economic perspective."
