Here is the chart from the link I posted above. This chart enabled me to win $100 from a vile reader of the NY Slimes. She was quoting the 8% at dinner this weekend. I made a bet that she was wrong. She will not pay but her husband mailed the check to me after I emailed him this chart.

Thanks for posting this great chart. And I'm sorry you had to go to dinner with someone who not only spouts disinformation, but welshes on her bets, too. Hope you didn't get indigestion!!

I'd venture those unemployment percentages are not normalized for growth in the denominator (e.g., immigration)

Those numbers --- especially recent years -- ain't worth a thimbleful of warm spit.
Dear Ompa Dave, please take a sledgehammer and whack to splinters that cheerleader soapbox you carry around like Linus's blanket. Instead of posting claptrap that's even worse analysis than the original article (as if that's possible), go out and look into those numbers your cheers are about. I mean go and be a truth-seeker and not just a dim-bulb's booster cable.
You can find solid employment numbers, income numbers. Every state that has a income tax reports them. You can even correlationly "improve" the numbers by reference to sales tax erevenue figures.
That's just one suggestion. If you want the truth, go and find it, the truth has many roads into it. But for gosh sakes stop spreading calumny. For that's what your truth-irrelevant boosterism is. The "good" news you boost, unfortunately, is veneer-level true if that, and a cover for a severe infestation of fraud and mortal danger to our nation.
