In October the total number of people filing for some kind of unemployment rose to over 10 million for the first time in history, and no new jobs are replacing the ones that are lost.
printing 10 trillion dollars and spending it, can contributes to increase in GDP. Zimabawee GDP growth is like $2109830924803284023 Zimbawae dollars, but it doesn’t mean anything
Inflation is not factored into GDP so maybe inflation is taking off.
You only need ONE reason: the entire GDP growth was due to Cash for Clunkers and First Time Homeowners gimmee programs, e.g. Gov’t spending. Wait and see when the next report comes out.
It’s all smoke and mirrors like the during the previous administration, but we’ve run out of bubbles, except for the government bubble.

Since when?
By then they will have revised these numbers downward, making the new numbers look better when they come out. They do that with all the other data that comes out these days.
Ya, it is a job loss recovery. The manufacturing jobs are still leaving the country.

A plausible criticism, sounds like.
