Why link the out of date article on the labor participation rate and not this more recent one with good SC economic news?

“with good SC economic news”

I think you answered your own question.

Policies that now pay some 7 million men between the ages of 25 and 54 to neither work nor look for work — for example, expanded access to food-stamp programs, easy access to Social Security disability benefits and Medicaid for able-bodied men who refuse to work….

That is the REAL economic news and Obama economy.

Here’s an interesting set of numbers.

From 2001 through 2008 each year, the percentage change in people obtaining disability income via SS increased about 5% a year. (4.96% to be exact).

2009 forward – that has been 2.6%, and in fact, 2013 – 2015 the average was 0.31%. A much smaller increase.

In fact, the rate at which benefits were terminated – was a meger 2.66% 2001 through 2008, yet under the current Administration that figure has been 5.5%. Meaning, under the current Administration growth of people on SS disabilty has slowed and the percentage of people on SS disability terminating those payments has increased – making your assertion – wrong!!!! Again!!!!!

Facts suck eh?

You are the one stuck in your bubble. The few times you leave you have to take your epipen in case someone exposes you to the truth. LMAO!!!

Yes I have. And the above are facts, directly from the SS Administration. Go argue with them. Sorry Charlie!!!!

“Facts suck eh?” If the facts don’t cum from Faux, or Breitbart, they ain’t facts, thems are liars, just like the liberal media [sarc]

Probably a Disqus issue. It is often unstable. “Real” Flip/pogo’s and Terry Ward’s sockpuppet troll IDs, cumulatively, have driven it stark raving mad.

EDITED IN: I hit “Save Edit” on the message above, and it did save it — but took me to another FITS post altogether.

That’s right—you all-day suckers who keep re-electing Grahamnesty and I-Lie-To-Conservatives-Joe Wilson to rip down patriots’ flag and give victory to FELLOW Dims

Can all gather at the Columbia rail station when that long Tea Train comes by and we’ll be glad to hang you AND the payday-grubbing legislators up on limbs

And if you doubt what we say then not so incidentally and by the way…don’t look now but RINO John Boehner is still drunk and looking for his head

RINO McConnell—like the National GOP staff—needs a dry cleaner for his pants—and we can ASSURE you flag-ripping legislators—you ARE the walking dead !!!

One of the greatest generals and statesmen ever, Robert E. Lee, expressly stated that the rebel flag should be furled forever, and never unfurled. Neo-confederate nutcases ignore that, as though he never said it. Calling it a “patriots’ flag” merely displays your obsessive and aggressive ignorance. I honor the service of my own ancestors to the CSA cause, in which they fervently believed. They fought, more than anything else, to protect home and family. That is to be admired and respected. You have made the obsolete banner of a failed cause into your god. Too bad there are many who hold your views who have far too much power in SC.

Buz was upset that power rests in the people–that Southern heritage is real–he called those nutcases who didn’t agree with him
But when that Tea Train nominated President Trump and UNelected SC flag-ripping legislators…Buz was yep–way out on a limb !!!

You think that big-mouth Dutch Yankee gives a rip about your precious flag? HAH! He WILL say anything to get your vote, though.

Yes, “Southern Culture” is real. It has many facets it has many colors, it has many faces. Many of my own ancestors fought bravely for the Confederacy in the Civil War. In a later era, their children and grandchildren were forced to go to sub-standard “colored” schools such as Pine Level Elementary School in the Dimery Indian Settlement, Dog Bluff section of Conway SC.

Members of my paternal family lines moved to NC over this issue, since the “colored” designation in the Jim Crow era would proscribe the earning capacity of their children. They were not “colored”, they were mixed Indian and “white.” But it had been decreed that there were no Indians left that were not on reservations, so officially they were designated as colored.

Soon after, that school and others like it were accepted back into the category of “white” schools. Relatives who stayed behind were increasingly pressured to assimilate into the dominant culture. They did this by marrying the whitest people they could find, and, in some cases, by joining the KKK.

On a visit to one of those cousins’ house, he was invited to join, too. My father said, “Listen here. I just got back from fighting in North Africa and Europe under Patton. I saw the camps. I hate the damned nazis. And I’ll be damned if I’ll join up with people just like ’em back home.”

My father was not real fond of black people, truth be told. But I remember when the Lumbee ran the klan out of Robison County. He was jubilant over that. The spirit that he represents is a strong defiant part of Southern Culture that values doing the right thing, and not going along to get along with crazy racists like you.

Buz was an intelligent and studied man who reflected deeply
on his ancestry and past

He made salient points about the diversity of Southern
culture—stood before life’s mast

And said I’ll tell my story—for it’s uniquely mine—and I’ll
cling to what I deeply believe

But it was when he kept throwing the race and victim card
that Buz began to deceive

He found many PC sycophants who were willing as he to paint with a very broad brush

They were fellow travelers down at the Section 8 office and
it gave them quite a rush

To live in a house where the rent was monthly paid by
working folk—especially whites

And when Obama-Dims–OTHER RINOs funded Obamacare—Buz said it’s only right

To take from those who’ve earned medical care and give it to those who have NOT

And sure it’s a calloused and Godless socialist position…the
only one we’ve got

Soon Buz believed that Godless socialism was justice and in
the end it wasn’t funny

Buz had deceived himself into thinking he’d not run out of
OTHER peoples’ money !!!

Bert Darell February 10, 2016 at 9:25 am

Buz, sorry, you are not like your old ancestors you claim to be proud of. Just wait a few days, then a few months, and you will see who free SC voters choose. As always, the proof will be in the pudding. You may not like the taste of it.

Herman W. "Buz" Martin February 13, 2016 at 12:18 pm

Those who will vote for Trump only think they are free. They are prisoners of their own fear and bigotry.
