[PROCON]

Attention Citizens:

Dear Leader is working night and day to improve the horrible Bush economy he inherited.

[Lion Den Dan]

Obamabullshite.

[Bluewater2015]

Corporations are sitting on megatons of cash, and yet they’re not only not hiring, they’re not even giving out raises worth mentioning. Zero’s administration is hardly blameless, but there’s plenty o’blame to go around.

[Diogenesis]

Unemployment FALLS because the LIARS do not count
the other 25% out of work.

[SaveFerris]

Ah good. Our dose of daily propaganda from state media. Dah, comrades.

Next, popular TV show, What Fits Into Russia America?

[SaveFerris]

[a seven-year low]

AP is carrying all the water they can.

[Cowboy Bob]

With unemployment so low, there is a risk of an overheated economy. The Fed needs to raise interest rates immediately!

[Dilbert San Diego]

Has Obama come out yet to crow about these new jobless numbers??? Maybe he will also say how homosexual marriage is creating lots of new job opportunities. And how the Affordable Care Act is working just as John Roberts intended.

[allendale]

Anyone who accepts statistics that have been determined from data analyzed, massaged and then released by the Obama administration is a fool.

[KC_Conspirator]

Oh yes, a "7 year low"...

I live in a Age of Lies.

If I were the next president, I would specifically hire a consulting team to go back and rework the numbers from BLS, and republish to show the real bad economy under the Obama adminstration.

[HiTech RedNeck]

And yeah, this number means EXACTLY what it would have meant under Bush! (Or even Clinton.)

Bull-ogna.

[headstamp 2]

more ten hour per week full time jobs.

[SharpRightTurn]

“US employers add 223K jobs; jobless rate falls to 5.3 pct.”

Right. And free ObummerPhones and EBT cards for everyone! Laissez les bons temps rouler!

[circlecity]

First off, half of all able bodied American of working age aren’t even included in the workforce numbers and second, how many of these added “jobs” were part time. Last month every single one of the net increase of jobs were part time.

[DrDude]

Stop letting the Obama elite frame this issue. It is not only people who gave up looking for work. Many people are actively seeking work but are not counted because they never qualified for unemployment and/or have exhausted their benefits.

[OttawaFreeper]

I believe that this has happened in the recent past in that when the initial headline was made about how many more jobs were added to the economy under Dear Leader during a certain timeframe, the Labor Department had to come back and revise those numbers in a downward fashion. Does anybody else here think that this will take place concerning this latest number a few weeks or months down the road?

[BitWielder1]

5% unemployment was considered REALLY BAD under Bush.
And that's before they were lying full scale about that number.

[Stentor]

Große Lüge.

[fatnotlazy]

Didn’t some economist recently estimate the real unemployment number at 40 something percent?

I’d believe 40 plus percent over these ridiculous numbers.

[concerned about politics]

The feds only count those who go to the governments unemployment office. They also add the Birth/Death model to that (A death or retiree is replaced by another worker - which is no longer happening BTW. People aren't being replaced.)

Study Shows 40 Percent of Unemployed Have Given Up on Finding a Job (New American)...
"While the U.S. Department of Labor continues to tout decreased unemployment rates, the reality is that a significant portion of the unemployed have simply withdrawn from the job market entirely, according to a survey by Express Employment Professionals. According to the survey, 40 percent of the 8.5 million unemployed Americans have given up looking for jobs"

[Mastador1]

I’ll bet there are at least that many illegals coming in!
