Government manipulates numbers all the time.
So does Sic.
So do you, dick bump.
So does your mother.
Another total Horseshit ‘the sky is falling’ economic horror story from Zero Hedge/FITS.

People KNOW the truth Dumbass. We LIVE in the country. We SEE what is going on. Not enough groceries for WORKING people. College grads living at home w/ parents, FT jobs cut into PT…and people just trying to bide their time until Obama is gone, and we can fix the Fucking mess you’ve made.
We don’t just sit on our asses, taking food stamps, living in gov’t housing, talking on an Obama-Phone all day…like you ignorant MoFos must. We’re having to deal with the disaster o liberalism gone wild.
Why do you think Hillary and the allies of the Democrat Party are tanking?
You are either blind, dumb, or SC educated.
He lives in Crapville. For vacation he went to Shit Town. On weekends he visits Dumpsboro. He wouldn’t know what’s going on in America if it bit him in the ass. Though he’d enjoy it.
Crapville?You are awfully judgemental. Raised 3 children and NEVER had time in my day for the kind of time you spend on Fits.
Sounds like it is Crapville in Verdadville for the children?
I wouldn’t call them children. I’d call an future freaks as you are.
You failed this country and your fellow Marines.erneba is a veteran and makes us proud.You sir, are a disgrace.
I bet ” Squidly ” had ammo for his weapons ? We didn’t you fuck up.
‘We didn’t you fuck up.’
lol! Translate you illiterate bastard! Oh my!
Ok, i need to adjust my droid. Have your laugh
adjust your droid? You fucking idiot! Just put the 40 oz Colt 45 down!
Translationcomplete: Reagan ORDERED no ammo for airport security. He should of been tried for treason like Bush ! He murdered 243 Marines for ” Brinkmanship ” as your buddy says it. Check it with eneuba ?
Pussy Marine you are.
The Marines had lax security at the barracks.
I’ll pass.
You must have.
That is the government version
I’m glad to disgrace both of you ! You both are not American at this point in your lives. Just Old R puppets. Dinosaurs that want to reverse time, LOL.
You don’t think Obama is a ISIS and Russia ‘puppet’?
Why would I?
Calling Rocky’s children ‘freaks’ is sad.Get some help!
Nobody fucking talks to you all day.I don’t mind.
I doubt that his kids are like him. It seems like Flip was probably dropped on his head as a child twelve too many times.
We have 4.8% unemployment in Verdadville.
Please.I have visited Charleston SEVERAL times.Parts of it look like South Africa.20% unemployment at LEAST!
As usual.
The numbers have been calculated tge same way for decades. Whether it’s a repub or dem administration. What’s the point here? If the numbers are wrong, they’ve always been wrong.
The number is only valid if it is favorable for the party in question. Who wants to bet that we wouldn’t hear about labor participation rates if Ron Paul were prez?
WTF difference does it make?
FITSNews, and its dolts, will believe whatever Obama tells you.
Yet you keep coming here day after day. You must be an Obama supporter then.
It is called cooking the books on both sides. I think Trump is wrong and I also think the current administration is wrong. The true unemployment rate is probably somewhere around ten per cent, if calculated by methods used prior to the Obama administration.
The United States economy needs a jump start and the current administration is incapable of doing that when all their policies are based social and political motivations
There are more old people. They are living longer. If they won’t work, they should at least die.
You might be a Republican, but at least you gots a brain.
Thumper seems like a good guy and great American.He skews ALL opinions based on if it helps Nikki Haley, however.He can’t argue that SC is doing well under Haley unless he also defends the fact 94 million are unemployed,40 million are on Food Stamps and 80 million on Medicaid.
Smart man.
That’s because I’m not a Tea party – throw the bums out with the bath water Republicans.
I’m a crony capitalist – establishment – warmonger. What we need is more money in politics.
Counting high-school-age kids (roughly 10 million) and Americans 65 and up (17.6 million) we are at 68 million not working.Subtract 8 million for college age.
60 million NOT working. All your numbers and unemployment is still 25-30%.
Get a job fuckhead !
I have two! You need one? Will the homeless shelter let you work? I will send Boz over on his bicycle to pick you up.
If you want the real unemployment rate, check out the Forbes site. The Forbes Company does not harbor any political bias, as far as I know.

Good, then you want mind if we start running things more like the Countries ahead of us on this list.

I have not the slightest clue as to what kind of idiocy you are attempting to peddle.
Hint: Try it on someone, that does not work with me.
The construction industry is crawling with illegal aliens. Just look at the new schools being built by Dorchester County District 2. That school system knows they are working on their property. The school districts contractors employ them. Some of what is going on is felonies. That school district’s leaders are set up to be charged and arrested under 18 U.S. Code § 4 … “Whoever, having knowledge of the actual commission of a felony cognizable by a court of the United States, conceals and does not as soon as possible make known the same to some judge or other person in civil or military authority under the United States, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than three years, or both.”
More and more companies are violating American’s workers protected rights. Staples had to pay out 26 million dollars for age discrimination to 60 something year old man. They tried to get other employees to lie against the guy. But it backfired.
STFU, you idiot. Obama has shed millions of jobs by being a terrible president. Blame him, you fucking dumbass.
Congressional Budget Office issued a revised projection that nearly 2.5 million workers could opt out of full-time jobs over the next 10 years(Obamacare) – allowing employers to wipe 2.3 million full-time jobs off the books. As usual,YOU are correct.
Troll off, bitch
We’ll find out Friday. $10 says Will don’t post it until next Monday.
Rocky, I am with you. 40 million on Food stamps and 80 million on Medicaid is GREAT news!
Counting high-school-age kids (roughly 10 million) and Americans 65 and up (17.6 million) we are at 68 million not working.Subtract 8 million for college age.
60 million NOT working. All your numbers and unemployment is still 25-30%.
So.My buddy Rocky.Using YOUR numbers (eliminate high school,college and seniors) we got 60,000,000 divided by 237,000,000 adults (still included YOUR crew). 25% unemployment.
You and Thumper get a room and figure this out. :)
Except once again, you assume if someone does not participate, they are by defnintion unemployed. Stay at home parents for example are nearly 6 million. There are 12 million in high school. 20 million in college undergrad. Another 5 million graduate students. That alone is close to 45 million, or nearly half of your “huge” number. Another 6 million receive supplemental SS income, and there are 14 million disabled or early retirees receiving SS. That’s another 20 million, so we’re at 65 million. Of that remaining 25 million one cannot assume they are all out of work. They include wives of childless homes who do not work (age groups 50 to 65), a sizable portion of couples 55 to 65 with assets and wealth that do not require they work, young grandparents who remain at home to help their kids, and sadly, older workers (high amount minorities) without the skills that enable them to obtain gainful employment. And that particular group has been with use for a long time. So recheck your numbers. Regardless, there is no correlation between participation and economic growth. The statistical models (the R-squared) is weak at best. But hey, if it makes you feel better, enjoy.
Velocity of money is 20% what it was 10 years ago! Think about that 20%. The U6 is the closest to the real number and even it does not count all.
