Heard some back and forth last night about the “lost” jobs/hours due to the aca. The opponent kept saying something about “100’s of millions of jobs”. WHAT? Where does this guy get his info? I guess I musta forgot that reduced hours and reduced pay is apparently a good thing. HUH? And these white house asshats spokesmodels can actually stand there and state this crap with straight faces.
If a person so much as works 1 hour it is counted as a “job”. If that same person does this 10 times in a year, that’s 10 “jobs created” and “10 people employed”.
I want to see the number of people actually working salaried full-time, hourly full-time, single job part-time, and multiple jobs part-time.
Those numbers are extremely difficult to come by, but so far I see 27 million salaried full-time, 45 million hourly full-time, 25 million hourly part-time, and about 3 million multiple jobs part-time. That’s about 99 million employed at all. The 145 million number seems completely bogus.
