All they need is a compliant BLS to manipulate the numbers and a compliant MSM to report the good news.

Check & check! They already have both!

They are already doing that:

1. They give unenemployment checks for nearly 2 years.
2. They take discouraged workers off the numbers if those people have provably looked for a job in ONE MONTH.

So, you get paid to sit on your butt, and because you’re sitting on your butt your number doesn’t count.
