70 to 100 million out of work is “Full Employment” in Obama’s fantasy land. Amazing!

If we make all the jobs half-time, we’d be at 0% unemployment in no time!
If that didn’t work, make them all 1/4 time jobs!

Even the MSM knows the job numbers are hogwash, but they gotta keep the conversation in a constant spin cycle.

So this is what 'full employment' looks like? [That's essentially what we have today] Maybe, according to the 0bama regime's fairy tale figures.
I suppose they're designed to help The Beast in her quest to carry on caliph 0bama's policies, but even the moronic dems should know that they are a fraud. Then again, maybe not.

Smoke and Mirrors!! When there is over 90 million people not working plus most of the jobs are on the non-productive work filed and most of them are part time. There is a serious problem with this so-called president! Tell the truth instead of lying all the time!!!

There are people who wouldn’t take a job if offered $100 an hour to do inventory for a blind liquor store owner.

Barack Hussein Obama will be of service to all of us after he is out of office. When you see a Barack Hussein Obama Blvd, you will know it’s probably a high crime area, stay away.

Think about it. When the economy is really hitting on all cylinders we feel it. There are help wanted signs everywhere, corporate earnings are up. Does anyone other than frackers (god bless ‘em) feel that acceleration?

Then unemployment figures released are fraud. Does not take into consideration those out of the work force that have given up looking and those underemployed in part time positions.

The most noticeable symptom of full employment is upwards wage pressure - with very few exceptions, we haven’t had that in over a decade (in some areas more).

As well as the faux welfare (disability) - the permanent replacement for welfare, which had constraints placed upon it by the 1996 welfare reform (though I can’t believe there is any five-year limit on the welfare culture we saw on parade in Ferguson and Baltimore).
