Sorry to much thread to read, however NC is a great place to live and work, I've never had an issue finding a job, people are fleeing here from other states for the jobs and weather!
Especially the Yankees for f@ck sakes. angry2

To those who said they left NC and wouldn't come back... We'll good riddance!

You dumb ass. Once the long-term unemployed stopped getting unemployment, they were removed from being counted among the unemployed. Unemployment rates only count people receding unemployment insurance. The real statistic would be who actually has a job. The GOP counts on stupid people like you to look at graph and have no understanding of what it means. It's like closing the soup kitchen and then claiming the number of hungry people has declined.

That's great good for them, but still does not address my point. We don't actually know how many people are unemployed or underemployed. And how many of those 20k jobs are sit-paying part-time work. The GOP is destroying NC.

LOL

You two are funny.

Typical libs..

If the facts and stats don't fit your theory...just change the facts.

 Quoting: *Evan


Yes, they are a bit like children, incapable of critical thought. But with the vindictive nature that causes them to excel in misdirection and manipulation. They are incapable of being rational or responsible, so they instead focus all of their energy into attempting to demonize and/or demean those that are.

Kind of funny once you figure it out.
Within the surreal depths of "reality" lies the truth.

If you made 100K with that kind of grammatical ignorance, well, it probably explains again why this country is on the verge of collapse.

Don't "rich" people know how to spell, or form correct sentences?

The solution to Bad Unemployment Numbers is easy...

...Just quit counting...

It's not the numbers, it's the counters.

Just deny all unemployment claims, or reclassify them as "Working for Obammy"?

See how easy that is, just ask any Malignant Psychopath?

You have to look at the full picture any state that provides tax incentives will create jobs in that state and North Carolina is has prospered to a 6.9 unemployment rate while states such as New York and California also show improvement but the dirty little secret is that people are leaving these areas in droves. The proof is that both New York and California the number of people on the welfare rolls exceeds the number of workers with jobs.

Jenkins stresses job creation in North Carolina

North Carolina improved from last year’s Forbes ranking of fifth.

Forbes joins nine other national organizations that have recently said that North Carolina has one of the best business climates in the country. Earlier this year, Ernst & Young said North Carolina has the lowest state and local tax burden on business.

During this year’s legislative session, Jenkins, owner-operator of W.S. Clark Farms, successfully worked to create and save jobs by enacting a refundable tax credit for 125,000 small businesses that employ 500,000 people.

The Left and its lies on jobless rate
[link to www.robesonian.com]

North Carolina’s job-creation trend also exceeds the national average over the longer run. From June 2011 to December 2013, the state added about 184,000 new jobs, a growth rate about 13 percent above average.

The Number Of People On Welfare Exceeds The Number Of People With Jobs In 11 States

This list of states includes some of the biggest states in the country: California, New York, Illinois, Ohio, Maine, Kentucky, South Carolina, Mississippi, Alabama, New Mexico and Hawaii. It is interesting to note that seven of those states were won by Barack Obama on election night. In California, there are 139 "takers" for every 100 workers.

From the article linked:

"It doesn't tell us whether people are finding jobs or just totally dropping out of the workforce."
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 52511705


In NC here...I'd bet my life on the latter. YUP...there are not much livable wage opportunities here and too many people with degrees...so we have people with degrees working at family dollar...Walmart...CVS...McD's...etc.
At that rate...they'll NEVER pay off their student loans...
their credit rating TANKS...then they can't afford health insurance, in which they'll be fined...I can go on all day.

THANKS, VICIOUS CYCLE!!!
