David Stockman is not the type of person you expect to say things like that.

David Stockman is just another economist. He carries more weight than Krugman, for example, but he isn’t the “type of person” you might think.

Is that the David Stockman who defeated the Liberal Dem Congressman Jack Brooks in TX in ‘94?

1.2 million dropped out of labor market to rig 8.3% unemplyment to make obama look good is a fraud. It is a criminal fraud that should be indicted.Congress must instruct them immediately on elements on computation. First— there are no people dropping out!! They are still unemployed. all of them. That means our current unemployment rate is close to 11%!!!

BLS statistics a made-up figure?

Well, to quote a favorite TV character from years ago, Surprise, surprise, surprise.

When your fallback position is to depend on pixie dust and funding comes from the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow, then SOMETHING has to be done to bridge the very real gaps that keep showing up between the promises and reality.

The accepted strategy for this regime is simply to lie.

The birth death adjustment is a good example of how the BLS "guestimates" job numbers.
