2/2/2017 | me

Posted on 02/03/2017 5:32:55 AM PST by God luvs America

Unemployment ticked up to 4.8% due to 100K-plus reentering the work force...the left wing media meme will be unemployment moving up .1% with no other details.

CNBC also saying the number of temp workers are up which is an indicator the next few months will be strong numbers as temps will become full time.

LOL- Santelli just destroyed the CNBC crew who went down that road...they tried to claim this is not Trump’s number because he was not in office.

Santelli? “they knew who wasn’t going to be in office”

The lady on FOX just did an excellent report on this. She even mentioned how the Uber CEO left Trump’s panel “after folding to liberal pressure.” ROTFL. WINNING!

“Unemployment ticked up to 4.8% due to 100K-plus reentering the work force...”

The big question is why this isn’t a scandal. Entered the work force from where? Were they independently wealthy and just decided to get a job at Starbucks? Why weren’t they counted as unemployed before? How many more are there?

I really know the answers (except for the exact numbers), it’s just rhetorical.

Damn Russians. /s

Technically yes, but how many of those hires are a result of Trump’s win in November?

NOPE!

Because people had REAL HOPE after President Trump was elected.

If you want see Obama’s track record then look at the entire 8 years, and you will see it’s Globalist garbage.

Okay I wil give you this.

I would like to see the 1/4 quarter’s jobs numbers split in half. Split it at November 9th, 2016 5pm PST.

I bet it’s higher in the second half of 4th quarter.

Why weren’t they counted as unemployed before?

Simple. When surveyed they said they weren't looking for work.

I wonder if the MSM will report this - especially on TV. For 8 years we endured the MSM doing the following:

1) Reporting numbers that were lower than hoped - yet ballyhooed because of Obama.

2) Those numbers were often accompanied by the word “unexpected”.

3) Months later they would be quietly revised downward anyway.
