The percent might be true but what the numbers really are is they DO NOT show those that gave up and went on welfare. They do not count that, so in fact it makes their numbers look good. Always bewarey of anyone spouting percentages and numbers at you, most always what is unseen and uncounted are more important. |

Watch, in the next week to ten days, those figures will be adjusted....probably downward. Our real unemployment right now is somewhere between 16% and 18%, so maybe the TRUE NEW FIGURES SHOULD BE AROUND 14%. |

goldielucks User ID: 794598 United States 10/05/2012 05:57 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I'm just curious, is this a job report covering July/August? Reason I ask is that time period is when the seasonal summer jobs may have affected the report. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 15170057 If that is the case, then they are done now in the fall.

I remember when gov't made a similar claim in 2010 when they hired all those temporary census workers to enrage the public with all those probing out-of-line questions harrassing everyone to fury.

Anonymous Coward User ID: 14191002 United States 10/05/2012 06:11 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | POLL: Quoting: Texas2012 WASHINGTON (AP) - The U.S. unemployment rate fell to 7.8 percent last month, dropping below 8 percent for the first time in nearly four years and giving President Barack Obama a potential boost with the election a month away. True or False! I call BS! As soon as my phone alerts started going off this morning about it....I was like..that's a bunch of bs lies! But oh how convenient this "looks" for Mr. Obama! the way you have it written/ask is inccorect...I do believe we added 114K, we need 125K MINIMUM for a growing economy...so I would have to answer true. We all know the real reason is that many people are not eligible for unemployment since they have been out of work so long. Unemployment figures use the number of people that actually make claims and in which the gubmint actually send checks to...clearly it is easily 11% in actuality. |

davvi User ID: 3677166 United States 10/05/2012 06:19 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I was amazed listening to the radio today, and reading news sites how many people actually believe the government. Quoting: FatalW1shes Manipulation is just one of the obvious ploys of this administration and these numbers today are just bullshit. 50 years ago the press would have posted that on every major newspaper across the country. BULLSHIT You can move and change and get the numbers where you want, but contracting the number of jobs available to get the numbers where you need them is just fucking dirty. Shame on this administration. it is amazing to me that there are obamabots who actually think that going from 8.2 unemployment to 7.8 unemployment is something to celebrate. even if someone was stupid enough to believe these numbers they are not good news. |
