Wall Street to fall after jobs data; services eyed (jobs worse than expected)
Yahoo Finance ^

* The U.S. private sector created 175,000 jobs in January, slightly below the expectation of 180,000, while the data for December was revised lower to 227,000 from 238,000. December's data widely overshot a broader report from the Labor Department which showed just 74,000 jobs were created in December. The market-moving government report is due Friday.

Don’t you love the libtard MSM’s buzzwords: unexpectedly, revised downward, overshot? Keep lyin’ to protect the lyin’ king.

It’s a controlled descent. They have no intention of landing the plane safely, they just want to make sure the pilot lives through the fire.

Even the most pessimistic of numbers, a couple of months later, are “revised lower”, so the lights continue to wink out, one by one, as a new darkness covers the territory once known as “the United States of America”.

Can’t wait for the balkanization of that territory to begin, and the welcome revival of Freedom, Justice and the American Way to those areas generally known as the “red” states.

The “blue” districts have already surrendered their rights to a similar return to basic morals and ideals. Not because they had to, but because they wanted to.

Even ten years ago, this argument would have been mocked and ridiculed. Now, people accept it and take it seriously. It just shows you how far we have/are falling in this country.

When the National credit card taps out, as it eventually will, it will be a beautiful and horrible thing.

The statisticians over at Labor must think they live in the land of make believe the way they have to fudge the numbers every month.

You forgot wonderful. I hope some of those journos find themselves wonderfully unemployed so that they can follow their dreams of travel, leisure, starting a business, staying home and taking up a hobby, maybe golf.

After all, we have a president who lives the parttime dream.

When practiced by the former Soviet Union, it was known as “propaganda.” We call it “spin.” Either way, it signals that our own collapse is not far off. Spin won’t feed the bulldog.

Republicans, the Democrats are setting up the single most potent electoral issue in US history.

Go into any store.

Walk down any aisle. Pick up anything, and it will say “Made in China”.

Republicans, this is the single most potent electoral issue ever.

BUY AMERICAN.

Stand up now. Before the Democrats yank this issue our from under your sleep-walking feet.

I predict the Republicans have this one election, coming up, to stand up for America.

The Democrats are currently selling Chinese goods in America, so they cannot (yet) take the stand themselves.

But this will soon, become the number one issue in America.

Americans need jobs.

Stand up Republicans. Right now.

Stand up for American jobs.

I think you're wrong about this.

You have 90+ million Americans who don't even show up in the labor force, you have phony unemployment rates below 7% when it's probably above 25% when you count real numbers, and yet you don't see millions of people getting evicted from their homes and living on the streets.

This tells me that one of the largest voting cohorts in America today is people who don't give a sh!t about whether they have jobs or not ... because they're getting along just fine without a job.

Don’t believe the market will fall since the Fed will up the billions to keep it in limbo.
