They still will not blame Obama for pushing all these people out of the workforce.

The main streets of my little burg are covered with “Help Wanted” signs. Admittedly not $30/hour stuff, but not like it was during the reign of Caliph Baraq.

The influx of those job seekers, if sustained, could help extend an economic expansion that is already the second-longest on record...

Somebody at AP just got fired! :)

Yes, from the sidelines in HYDERABAD. And Guanghzhou.

Many more people have decided to look for work than experts had expected. The influx of those job seekers, if sustained, could help extend an economic expansion that is already the second-longest on record


A very interesting unintended consequence, or who saw that coming...………………………...

Under Obama there were 95 million out of the workforce. That’s a pretty good sized pool of unemployed to draw from.

The Obama Administration enrolled 5-7 million able bodied, working adults directly off of 24 months enhanced unemployment insurance and into Social Security long term disability to hide the lack of economic recovery and artificially hide the true unemployment rate because workers on disability are not counted as unemployed

If the opening sentence is true, it is a scathing damning indictment of “many economists” who probably think of themselves as competent. The widespread eased allowing of “disability” ratings during the prolonged recession was a manifestly transparent tactic to reduce the unemployment numbers. It had been used in various Euro countries during the 90’s when needed, and was obvious to the casual observer here after 2009’s “green shoots” turned brown.

“A surprisingly strong burst of job growth over the past year”

surprising to know one except the socialist/progressive/Democrat shills in the dying lying leftist fake stream enemedia ...

very lengthy article that refuses to explore the reason WHY the U.S. economy has exploded during the last two years ...

Don’t worry Co Presidents Ivanka and Jared are working on flooding the USA with imported cheap labor of all strata so so don’t worry about wages going up.
