Oh so now 1 month before an election we get the “fudged” job numbers bringing the unemployment rate down below 6%?

And, the job creation just happened to be in the 55 to 69 age group which is the most important voting bloc?

SURPRISE SURPRISE......NOT

If EVERYONE leaves the workforce we would have zero unemployment.

There are some hilarious comments after the article. (Some outrageous too.)

It is my experience that older workers tend to have better language skills, math skills, and are more reliable than the young punks.

"With this jobs report, the Unemployment rate has now dropped below 6% to a new low of 5.9% … A large portion of this change can be attributed to an increase in the number of unemployed Americans leaving the workforce."

A nearly word-for-word quote from a radio news story today.

Thank the Fed for eliminating the interest from the savings the Boomers had responsibly gathered to support themselves in their old age.

Cheap, desperate, elderly workers available to keep payrolls down- it was genius!

Will they require birth certificates of the grandchildren to prove that you are a grandparent? What’s to stop someone from pretending to be a grandparent and showing off someone else’s grandkids’ photos as if they were his own grandkids?

I shockingly received an offer to help spearhead a new non-profit recently. I don’t think they can afford me. I thought I got my last job offer 10 years ago.
