Sad when 280,000 people have lost their jobs and that is good news.

...the number of individuals filing for initial jobless benefits in the week ending September 13 decreased by 36,000 to a seasonally adjusted 280,000 from the previous week’s revised total of 316,000. Analysts had expected jobless claims to fall by 11,000 to 305,000 last week. Continuing jobless claims in the week ended September 6 fell to 2.429...

How does that saying go? Oh, yeah. There are lies, damned lies, and then there are statistics.

And good news for the doctor with 50 patients. Last week 50 patients died but this week NONE died! Excellent progress and improvement! An award and celebration is in order!

This is interesting propaganda. Patently untrue, incomplete, laced with cooked books and utterly unreliable.

If X represents “working workers”

If X is decreasing as a percentage of Y which represents available workers

And if new jobless claims drop would it not follow that to file a claim you have to be eligible to do so? Well if the pool of X is constantly shrinking the pool of people who can claim unemployment also shrinks.

I don’t know. People are inherently stupid and ill-educated, or they don’t care that they are gargling government urine on a daily basis, or they are so apathetic that no matter what offenses of deceit and corruption are paraded before them, they don’t care. They really just must not care.

Thursday. The day I wonder if I’ve been smoking dope somehow with out even inhaling.

Although, with Obozo’s propaganda machine, it seems more like peyote.

The number of people who filed for unemployment assistance in the U.S. last week fell to the lowest level since mid-July, fuelling optimism over the strength of the labor market,

The string of manufactured good news leading up to the November election begins.
