Temporary retail jobs?
Christmas hires? The unemployment numbers will rise dramatically again in January. Funny watching the MSM drool all over themselves thinking we’ve turned the corner in our economic troubles. The rest of us know this is the calm before the storm.
We know this is a lie.
Where are they?
quote “labor force participation rate which declined
by 0.2% to 63.6% once again, as the number of people out of the labor increased by over 540K to 88,883,000.”
88 MILLION people are out of work now!!!!
socialism ! ain’t it grand!!!! /s
Doesn’t this report make complete sense and shouldn’t everyone in the US actually expect this result given what the State of Pennsylvania candidly is now advocating to its people?
“Don’t be a chump with a 69K job!!!!, take the welfare because its way more lucrative!!!!”
Americans aren’t COMPLETELY STUPID YET.
People have been shown that they are far more well off by NOT WORKING and instead TAKING ALL THE FREE STUFF WELFARE so again I ask...isn’t this precisely what one would expect?
So what happens when the total civilian workforce is down to 10 people?
This is all over the internet so I can’t take credit
COSTELLO: I want to talk about the unemployment rate in America.
ABBOTT: Good Subject. Terrible Times. It’s about 8 percent.
COSTELLO: That many people are out of work?
ABBOTT: No, that’s 16 percent.
COSTELLO: You just said 8 percent.
ABBOTT: 8 percent unemployed.
COSTELLO: Right 8 percent out of work.
ABBOTT: No, that’s 16 percent.
COSTELLO: Okay, so it’s 16 percent unemployed.
ABBOTT: No, that’s around 8 percent...
COSTELLO: Waits a minute. Is it 8 percent or 16 percent?
ABBOTT: 8 percent are unemployed. 16 percent are out of work.
COSTELLO: If you are out of work aren’t you unemployed?
ABBOTT: No, you can’t count the “Out of Work” as unemployed. You have to look for work to be unemployed.
COSTELLO: But they are out of work!!!
ABBOTT: No, you miss my point.
COSTELLO: What point?
ABBOTT: Someone who doesn’t look for work, can’t be counted with those who look for work. It wouldn’t be fair.
COSTELLO: To who?
ABBOTT: The unemployed.
COSTELLO: But they are all out of work.
ABBOTT:No, the unemployed are actively looking for work ... Those who are out of work stopped looking. They gave up. And, if you give up, you are no longer in the ranks of the unemployed.
COSTELLO: So if you’re off the unemployment roles, that would count as less unemployment?
[See the 10 best cities to find a job.]
ABBOTT: Unemployment would go down. Absolutely!
COSTELLO: The unemployment just goes down because you don’t look for work?
ABBOTT:
Absolutely it goes down. That’s how you get to 8 percent. Otherwise it would be 16 percent. You don’t want to read about 16 percent unemployment do ya?
COSTELLO: That would be frightening.
ABBOTT: Absolutely.
COSTELLO: Wait, I got a question for you. That means ther’re two ways to bring down the unemployment number?
ABBOTT: Two ways is correct.
COSTELLO: Unemployment can go down if someone gets a job?
ABBOTT:Correct.
COSTELLO:And unemployment can also go down if you stop looking for a job?
ABBOTT: Bingo.
COSTELLO: So there are two ways to bring unemployment down, and the easier of the two is to just stop looking for work.
ABBOTT: Now you’re thinking like an economist.
COSTELLO: I don’t even know what the hell I just said!
What about the 180,000 jobs lost because of the shutdown of Hostess Twinkies? Didn’t Citiibank just announce laying off 10,000 people? These unemployment numbers are about as fishy as the North Korean announcement of finding unicorns.
It is easy to fix an economy when all you have to do is lie about it.

Wow. This is really good news. We may owe trillions, but just think, we’re printing money 24 hours a day thanks to our super intelligent Fed Chairman Bernanke.
With an Obama administration firmly entrenched for another four years what possibly could go wrong? Congress, forever looking out for Americans, is considering a surtax even as I type this of at least 1% on our worth. That’s adding up the value of our home, cars, furniture, stocks, bonds, cash, anything of value.
We’ll have that 16 trillion dollar debt retired before those who may be here in the year 3000 (if God hasn’t stepped in to put an end to the world) which is only a few decades away.
Good news for our great-great-great grandchildren.
The world they’ll enjoy will have lots of same sex married couples, no Christmas, no God, but plenty of taxes to keep the wolf away from the door. Humans will marry whatever they want and do with their little willies and muffs whatever their little godless hearts desire.
Muslim and Sharia Law will be big then. There will never be a mention of Christianity, so Santa Claus will have been euthanized.
MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HURRY UP WITH THE REVOLUTION!
I trust them like I do the current thief in office...they all lie...
I guess I just assumed they were going to stop lying in reports after election, but I was very naive!
They have no intentions whatsoever of reporting the truth at any point
Unemployment Plunges to 3.8% for Government Workers; Government Adds 35,000 Jobs in November
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2966574/posts
yeah, right... 
Talk about title spin. We lost jobs overall - Not gained them. If you look at all the details in the numbers then this is apparent. These kinds of articles are just more lies from the MSM.
Wow, next month they will add 1000 jobs and the job rate will drop to 6%!
I feel so warm and fuzzy. Now if I could just afford to buy carparts.
I think the new solution to the job market is the new government Soylent Green factory. They hire 350,000 workers every month. At this rate, everyone will soon be working, those who are still alive that is.
