Fuck Yes! Vote Them ALL OUT!

The entire Obama regime is smoke and mirrors.

George Ure comments:
With lots of people running out of benefits, the number of unemployed showed a statistical drop of 93,000 people.

Someone doesn't know what he's talking about. When people run out of unemployment benefits, that doesn't mean they no longer show up in the unemployment rate.

Another "expert" who doesn't know shit.

if we could put this to music, it might be this....

the median wage is staying the same because someone who makes 50 million more in profits by "providing liquidity", meaning that million will be a loss on the Fed/Treasury's balance sheet, balances out 1,000 who made 50,000/yr that are now unemployed

Alternate Unemployment Charts

The seasonally-adjusted SGS Alternate Unemployment Rate reflects current unemployment reporting methodology adjusted for SGS-estimated long-term discouraged workers, who were defined out of official existence in 1994. That estimate is added to the BLS estimate of U-6 unemployment, which includes short-term discouraged workers.

The U-3 unemployment rate is the monthly headline number. The U-6 unemployment rate is the Bureau of Labor Statistics’ (BLS) broadest unemployment measure, including short-term discouraged and other marginally-attached workers as well as those forced to work part-time because they cannot find full-time employment.

Gallup Finds U.S. Unemployment at 10.1% in September
Underemployment, at 18.8%, is up from 18.6% at the end of August
by Dennis Jacobe, Chief Economist [link to www.gallup.com]

PRINCETON, NJ -- Unemployment, as measured by Gallup without seasonal adjustment, increased to 10.1% in September -- up sharply from 9.3% in August and 8.9% in July. Much of this increase came during the second half of the month -- the unemployment rate was 9.4% in mid-September -- and therefore is unlikely to be picked up in the government's unemployment report on Friday.

From the BLS ~

THE EMPLOYMENT SITUATION -- SEPTEMBER 2010

Nonfarm payroll employment edged down (-95,000) in September, and the unemployment rate was unchanged at 9.6 percent, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reported today. Government employment declined (-159,000), reflecting both a drop in the number of temporary jobs for Census 2010 and job losses in local government. Private-sector payroll employment continued to trend up modestly (+64,000). (More Party-line BS here: [link to www.bls.gov] )

The sad part is, They didn't take our jobs, They were given our jobs.

More every day here in CA. New people from unknown places speaking languages I can't place, or not speaking at all, yet all working full time; and my BSc is rotting in the drawer as I beg for a kitchen job...
