Watch. It’ll be an SNL skit. The other eight judges have a kegger for their new member, and things get out of hand.

Can’t imagine that if 96.3 percent of those who can work are working, there isn’t something out there for everybody.

There needs to be something that will change CAN to WILL.

“The unemployment numbers are therefore bogus for the main number reported, but Trump has turned these into gold for election purposes.”

I thought the unemployment number was the number of people who got jobs during the month and those who filed claims for unemployment during the month.

Nope. It is simply those who consider themselves “actively looking for work.”

By default, when your unemployment insurance payments run out, you aren’t actively “looking,” unless you are surveyed by the government. However, everyone getting unemployment is automatically included as “looking.”
