The Bureau of Labor has the nerve to report this as “essentially unchanged” from last month?\.

Talk about out of touch!

Wow! If MSNBC actually admits it's must lower than expected it must really be bad. Usually they phrase it something like, “The economy created only 18,000 jobs, but since Obama is president these are not normal jobs, they are super jobs, equal to about 500,000 normal jobs.”

Real estate is still the problem. Ordinarily, summer construction jobs offset temporary layoffs in the manufacturing sector due to plant retooling.

We are in a depression, not a recession.

Love that LSDNBC spin. Unemployment rises and they call it lower than expected hiring.

And the birth/death ratio adjustment is probably +50,000.

If I had to guess.

And, interestingly, Yahoo Finance has this headline.

However, the link it's attached to is touting that "Jobs creation WILL BE MORE than expected" "Everything is coming up roses" etc etc etc.

Obviously a mistake, but a really interesting one, no?

New unemployment claims are about 1.7 million for the same time period.

1.7 million vs 18,000 new jobs.

It is still a long way to the ‘break even’ point.

We need another stimulus to create some more $278k shovel-ready jobs. [/s]

correction factor +93K = -75K jobs “created”.

Who’d a thunk that regulating everything under the sun, paying people not to work or pay their debts would crash the economy.

My theory is businesses and corporations are holding off hiring, pending the outcome of elections next year. Obamacare is going to cause workforce costs to go up...couple that with the taxes 0bama wants to slap the “wealthy” with...

I think they’re going to just wait this storm through and see what shakes out electorally next year.

I propose that on January 21, 2013, the word “unexpected” be officially eradicated from the English language.

If 18K is what Obama’s bureaucrats announce, you know it actually came in at a loss. They probably drowned it in seasonally-adjusted, other-assumption sauce.

When is the report on how many ATM’s were installed in June going to come out? That’s obviously the problem here...

Now that QE2 is done, the punk POTUS will really love the numbers that follow.
