Anyone who accepts “official” statistics from the Federal government after five years of control by the commissars is delusional.Obama lies.Period.
40 million uneducated criminal aliens will fix it. How could you NOT focus in immigration/amnesty at a time like this? We’re going for the all-time SNAP participation record baby!
The liberals and the liberal media can spin it for maybe a few more years but there is no way they can spin it for six more.
If Hillary is elected, she’s either going to have to blame Hussein obamar or accept blame herself.
Sooner or later, the ugly truth will rear its ugly head.
The unemployment rate where I live is 40%. I’ve been told that by local business owners. The following is a good example of how the Democrat controlled government agencies are facilitating the unemployment rate lie of around 8%.
My 22-year old nephew is unemployed so he went to a hiring fair held by Weyerhaeuser at the local county expo center. What he discovered was a huge throng of people.
One of the Weyerhaeuser HR people told him that the crowd was five times what they expected. My nephew was told to come back the next day.
Will he have a chance? I don’t know, but there were hundreds of people there, and the mills are decent employers providing job security.
With all the high unemployment numbers why is it my company cannot find qualified engineers to work for us?

Bump
the left is famous for faking it. their motto is ‘fake it until you make it’
the stats they’re pushing, and the obligatory dissemination of the information far and wide, is an attempt to create reality... at least in the short term.
the problem is, you cannot keep faking it forever. in order for this trick to work, there needs to be some substance to build on.
unfortunately, progressives are lacking in substance... which is why they always resort to force
So the whole world is going to collapse and the only thing a lot of people will feel is Foolish?

Unemployment Drops to 0% as Last Worker Leaves Labor Force
The People’s Cube ^ | May 3, 2014 | Opiate of the People Posted by 4Liberty
Comrade Barack Obama today became the first to achieve a milestone coveted by enlightened central planners everywhere when the Bureau of Laborious Statistics announced the much-followed totally-meaningless “headline” U3 unemployment rate for last month was ZERO PERCENT! This means that the glorious economic recovery he engineered after the disastrous Bush years has now attained FULL EMPLOYMENT!
It is a tribute to Professor Obama that he was able to find the Holy Grail which eluded history’s greatest economic thinkers such as Lenin, Stalin and Mao. This landmark achievement along with his establishment of free healthcare for everyone via the Affordable Care Act cements his reputation as the Greatest Leader in this or any other universe for all time.
The dramatic moment occurred at 12:03 PM, four weeks to the day after Lyman Yilk, a pipe-fitter from Bittcling, Pa, finally gave up looking for work. Mr. Yilk has been unemployed since 2005 but was on a celebratory bender since the day after Mr. Obama’s first election and did not know that the Keystone Pipeline (which Mr. Yilk was hoping to find work on) had been cancelled due to environmental concerns. When he finally sobered up four weeks ago and learned the project was dead, he abandoned his search to find a job.
Mr. Yilk was the last worker to leave the labor force and turned the lights out as he left. According to the BLS definition:
Quote: U3: Official unemployment rate per the ILO definition occurs when people are without jobs and they have actively looked for work within the past four weeks. Without Mr. Yilk, there was no one actively looking for work any longer, hence the U3 rate was now ZERO PERCENT, praise Obama!
Gloom-and-doom naysayers were quick to note that the labor force participation rate had also dropped to zero percent which (according to them) was not a good thing as it meant no one was employed. Comrade Nancy Pelosi countered their racist, straw-man argument brilliantly by observing that it also meant no comrade was any longer “job-locked” and each was free to be an artist, writer, hooker, etc, and pursue their passion.
“There is no underestimating this tremendous achievement of Barack Obama” said Paul Klugeman, an expert on hiding declines and fudging economic statistics as well being the self-proclaimed “Conscious Liberal”. “Comrade Obama has achieved the socialist dream of freeing all of The People ™ from the slavery of work and permitting them to live off of someone else’s dime as god, if he existed, would’ve wanted.”
Dr. Klugeman was asked if a problem would arise due to the fact that since no one was working, there would also be no one to pay for the benefits that all the non-workers were collecting.
“Nonsense”, he proclaimed. “The Fed will simply print money for artists and writers and hookers to use to buy things from China! What could go wrong?”
It seems so simple now, it’s a wonder no one ever thought of it sooner.
“The genius of Dear Leader Barack Obama lies in his simplicity”, said Dr. Klugeman.
We agree.
What is even more amazing than the results, the poll was conducted and edited by the Obozo loving/adoring ComPost and ABC!
