750,000 jobs lost and unemployment ‘remains unchanged’... defying all mathmatical laws but no one questions it because it came from the holy mouth of Obama.
That’s the unexpected part every month. Hundreds of thousands of jobs lost and yet the official number remains the same.
By the way, just got a call from the Census Bureau, need me back for a month. Not sure why, but sending me to training tomorrow and will be working for 3-4 weeks. I need the money, but at this point I am just curious as to what ‘hole digging’ work they are planning to keep numbers up. Census was completed in my area nearly a month ago.

If they’re sending you to my house, better bring your firearm. :)
Ten percent unemployment is politically untenable. Therefore, it is kept at 9.7% or some such figure.
I just turned in my gear today. Was offered that 4-6 week gig but boy scout camp and vacation are more important.
I heard a comment (rumor?) on FNC today that they are floating the idea of a “permanent census”. This will add to the *jobs created or saved*, I imagine.
