Gallup’s #s were much worse than the official government numbers last month. Expect more of the same.

I hope the Coffee Party movement doesn’t hear about this; they’ll kill us with it.

Instead of reporting "unemployment" as being those who are actively looking, and then having secondary figures for those who have given up, we need to have one statistic that conservatives use that encapsulates the whole thing.

"Underemployment" doesn't capture what the true employment situation is. We need to use a figure that tells us the percentage of people who were employed in 2008 who are no longer employed. Call it the OUI--the Obama Unemployment Index.

Reagan had the Misery Index, combining inflation and interest rates. This is our Misery Index.

The REAL Unemployment Rate Is 22% according to Shadow Stats but the mainstream media is too busy promulgating propaganda to feed the masses to look into the truth of why it is reported the way it is now.

What??? Then why did CNBC break out the rhetorical champagne at 7:30 AM today when the unemployment numbers were announced? Does the media lie ALL the time? Nevermind....everyone knows the answer to that one.

Higher gasoline prices will result in more layoffs. Should gas hit $5/gal this summer, expect at least 2 million ADDITIONAL layoffs (private sector), with 2 million employees being reduced to part-time, and another 4 million being forced to take further pay cuts.
