Hey and they re-wrote and re-organized the BLS reports. Cool.

Did you notice that the BLS also fixed the 2009 report by adding back 920,000 in ‘unemployed’ error they left out of the 2009 data. See it’s that easy to fix the ‘errors’ in the monthly BLS report and slip the whole revised under the radar with the MSM. Cool manipulations.

So if the 10.0% rate in December was moved up with corrections, probably giving a real rate of over 19% so the drop in January was huge ... or is it hidden under the rug until they ‘fix’ it in the Feb 2011 report.

Dumber than a box of Kenyans if you buy this crap. And then they re-wrote and reformatted the entire BLS report. I am sure that is just updating to make the ‘new improved’ report high tech, don’t you?

Sure ... and I have a slightly used bridge to sell you.

As best as I can figure, another ~110,000 were dropped from the civilian labor force, and BLS is using 'seasonal adjustments' that assume lots of the job losses were temps hired for the Holidays. Despite the seasonal adjustment, another 880,000 are unemployed for a total of 16,147,000.

Now this is not counting independent workers, those working part time who need full time work, or those who took early SS to get some money in but need full time work. And what really galls me is that per PEW 8 million illegal aliens have jobs, and over 2009 another 1.5 million legal workers were brought into the country.

Shadowstats.com put unemployment at 22% before this report; I can't wait to see their new figures.
