He’s going to tell all the money and job deprived people that they aren’t money and job deprived, and they’re going to not listen.

But they will hear the spin on comedy shows, reality shows, and sitcoms. And they will accept that this is prosperity.

The socialists desperately need an older generation that knows better, that knows this is poverty, to die off. Then they can make everybody think that everyone always has been a serf.

In marking the five-year anniversary of this recession, hopefully someone will point out to him that unemployment is higher today in his fifth year as President than it was at this time five years ago (6.1 %).

At this time in 2008, there were 145 million people in this country who had jobs. Today, there are 144 million people who have jobs. So after 56 months in office and trillions of dollars in so-called 'stimulus' spent, we have one million less people employed. That's quite the legacy.

Six million people who WERE in the workforce have dropped out of the workforce. They can’t find jobs and eventually gave up trying. I don’t know how you arrive at your number of only one million fewer working than in ‘08.

WHY?

And why is this is Breaking News? He's already done this a billion times. This is trite, old news. There's nothing new on the economy he'll share with us.

The hit to his poll numbers from the Syria bungling must be more serious than we’ve been told.

The labor force is 800K larger now too. Based on those numbers alone any fool can see the unemployment rate has gone up. Note, you should also look at underemployment...

On these numbers alone, darned near 2 million MORE people are out of work that are in the labor force.
