Pretty sure a dartboard is the chief source of Department of Labor statistics at this point.
Load of bovine strunzo (Italian).
There can be no unemployment if zer0 puts them on the state ie. welfare and disability SS.
That is because so many have given up looking in the obozo economy — the worst economy since the Great Depression.
Another day, another lie from the government. This has been the longest 6 1/2 years of my life.
A doctor has 10 patients. Every year, he kills two. However, after his 5th year, he lost no more patients! What a great doctor!
Let’s see if Reuters-or anyone else for that matter-writes economy related supposed straight news articles in this mode if a conservative is in the White House some day.
Jobless meanwhile, are at a new high.
94,000,000 Americans now don’t work.
Oh Happy! Happy! Joy! Joy!
Happy days are here again
Obama gave us jobs again
Happy days are here again
More added to the ranks of the 94 million workers who have given up trying to find a job . This news is a disaster not an accomplishment .
jobless claims has become a fabricated almost meaningless number...
THE REAL STORY IS THE PEOPLE OUT OF THE WORK FORCE WHICH IS ABOUT 94 MILLION...
how does that smell.... not too good right??
besides
unless jobs arebrought back to the USSA we are heading for a RECESSION IN ‘16... and global debt is at a dangerous all time high and if recession hits THERE WILL BE defaults and A MAJOR BANKING CRISIS....AGAIN...!!!
Probing to see how far the bullsh** will go.
My take. Several things are in play here:
One, the numbers are being wildly manipulated and generally represent just the fantasies of obama and his cohorts in crime.
Two, many people have just accepted their lot is to live a dull life "on the dole" as they say. They'll take their unemployment while they can get it, then their food stamps, free health care, and other assistance, and just get by on that. Witness the tremendous increases in use of food stamps and other programs.
Three, those that are managing to find a little work are working part time jobs, often off the books. This thanks to obamacare's influence on employers. So while these people are not technically unemployed... Working 2 or even 3 part time jobs just to barely make ends meet until the next crisis in your life isn't really living.
In short, thanks to obama and his fellow big government fascists/socialists the American dream has changed. No longer a steady job, spouse, kids, dog, and white picket fences. Now the dream has changed. People just want to get by week to week, month to month with enough hours to keep whatever roof they have over their heads and something, anything in their stomachs. Thanks to obama and his fellow 'rats, we are well on our way to a "fundamental transformation" alright. From a land of opportunity to one of shared misery. To all the libtards out there reading this: you s**k.
ROTFL! This is the biggest load of BS I’ve ever heard. The method of getting these figures is not the same as it was 42 years ago. Only morons believe this kind of nonsense from this government.
Didn’t even read article, but let me guess, ‘unexpected’
Getting up at noon and loafing around the couch with a joint or hanging out on the corner with your buds is much more preferable to getting a job and especially if the only ones available are part time and pay minimum wage - which is only half of what the government pays you for just sitting around?
Over 8 million people were added to the Social Security Disability roles, up from 2.5 million. That’s 11 million people. So, instead of unemployment, Obama added then to disability.
Nobody is working so how can they lose a job they don’t have?
