U.S. soon to recover all the jobs lost in the financial crisis (Orwell would be proud)
CNNMoney ^ | June 4, 2014 | Annalyn Kurtz

Set your sights on this number: 113,000.

That's how many jobs the U.S. economy needs to hit its break-even point, to finally recover all the jobs lost in the financial crisis.

Get ready, because we're about to get there this Friday.

That's when the U.S. Department of Labor will release its May jobs report, and the outlook is rosy. Economists surveyed by CNNMoney expect the U.S. economy added 200,000 jobs in May.

It won’t reverse. It’s been happening since the late 1990’s. It’s demographics. If that’s your definition of “recovery” then we will never have one.

The chart in post #2 shows actual through last month not some projection from 3 years ago...

We are nowhere near the break even point.

Obama is cooking the books. He calls 1 person having 2 part time jobs as 2 people having a job.

Obama counts 30 hours per week as a full-time job.

Obama counts the unemployed as not part of the lab or pool within 30 days of losing their job.

You post communist propaganda when you post those bogus BLS numbers.

I see robust economic activity nearly every day. New construction, large scale hiring in good jobs, real estate values increasing, etc.

Right over the border from me. IN CANADA...

Demographics my ass. It’s the tax code. Plain and simple.

Your story is another example of the communist propaganda spewed by the BLS and Obama. Millions have taken a pay cut that is not reflected in the charts. They don’t show total personal income from W-2 & 1099 incomes. They wouldn’t dare.

I’ve said a thousand times on here that the government is crushing growth. But the facts are the facts. Ignore them if you like. People on this site just look stupid but making comments that are just factually untrue. It makes conservatives looks ignorant.

“And how many of those jobs have been filled by non-Americans?”

Another excellent point: The communists in the BLS and Obama count foreigners working here as US jobs.

“It’s demographics.”

A total BS statement. Define that clearly if you can: Define that unemployment percentages are a matter of “demographics”.

“But the facts are the facts.”

Unfortunately, you don’t know what a fact actually is. You think propaganda represents facts.

You support the propaganda that 1 person holding 2 jobs is reported as 2 people holding a job as a fact.

Your worthless propaganda is well known, and I am just pointing it out for those that don’t know you fully support the Obama administration’s BLS propaganda numbers.

You wouldn’t know a fact is it bit you in the ass.

And you continue to just throw out insults while never once providing a single fact. Your posts are completely worthless as you are unable to support anything. Until you actually provide something of value I’m not going to waste my time to you.

Your position is typical of a liberal that pushes Obama’s propaganda. I could point out fact after fact, and we have on these threads, and you would merely ignore them.

I only call out liberals for their lies. If you don’t like it then go find another site to peddle your liberal lies.
