The unemployment rate for black Americans fell to single digits in April for the first time in nearly seven yearsWhy wouldn't this be the case, there has been an upswing in riots so they are now gainfully employed in this administrations eyes.

It’s quite possible if you’re counting rioting “Youths”.

Probably because even more blacks have just fallen out of the labor force. Thanks, Barack.

You’ve likely stated a valid point. They’re being PAID to riot.

Unemployment rates:
No high school diploma 8.6
High school graduate 5.4
Some college 4.7
College graduate 2.7
Black high school
graduation rate (2012) 59%
White high school
graduation rate (2012) 80%
Maybe Al and Jesse should get off the I’m-a-victim bandwagon, stitch the black family back together, and tell them that education matters if they want to rise above poverty. Of course, those two, and most politicians, want to keep blacks right where they are: dependent on gov’t.

My guess is that this new, timely ‘revelation’ is meant to assuage and encourage that group that indeed ‘things are getting better for us’.
If that’s so, how come a pound of hamburger is $6-7 for a lean cut or gas is at $2.58/gal today my area (at $1.86/gal when Obama elected?)
Milk, butter, eggs, bread, meat, the whole damn ball of wax...more, more, more. BUT! You can buy cereal and chips for the same price and package size! Great! Just don’t look at the net weight of what’s in it.
I’m pretty much down to grocery shopping once a day or two nearby getting meats and such that are at the “sell by” dates just to cut some slack in the food for “still-working Wifey” for when she gets home at night.

I just came back from a three hour meeting where I was told retirees eligible for Medicare would be transitioned off to a health care exchange in 2016.

They could only have fallen off their roles, is if they are unemployed actors?

Well....I'm at a loss for words, actually. Your picture implies that one might think he even had a pair similar to those to begin with! Of course, he has a figurative pair when it comes to the Audacity of Destruction he is imposing on our Constitution, our Republic and our real working, net taxpaying-citizens to get the votes from those that don't fit any of that, but the damage shown is real, very real. Consequences, people. Consequences.
