looks like you caught fish lying again to justify his means ... now here comes the double talk from fish and a lot of childish remarksThe last change in defintion was in 1994. before then, the definition of unemployed was:They did not, ya deranged rightard.What?? There are more people unemployed today (with a larger population) than there were when a real estate bubble was propping up the economy??If it was true, it would be, but its not. There are more unemployed today than in 2007, more on welfare, more on food stamps, and more underemployed. Plus he has doubled the national debt and made Putin look like a statesman. Bin Laden was found using intel developed during the Bush admin, all obozo did was give the ok to hit him. The auto bailout didn't save anything-------------except the UAW and its donations to the DNC.
You don't say?
Regardless, there are fewer people unemployed today, despite the larger population, than there were when Obama became president.
that is simply not true, they changed the way they count the unemployed to exclude those who are no longer looking for work. its a game and they have you fooled.![]()
you are wrong, look it up.
Unemployed persons comprise all persons who did not work during the survey week, who made specific efforts to find a job within the past 4 weeks, and who were available for work during the survey week (except for temporary illness). Also included as unemployed are those who did not work at all, were available for work, and (a) were waiting to be called back to a job from which they had been laid off; or (b) were waiting to report to a new wage or salary job within 30 days.
Employment and Earnings July 1982
In 1994 it changed to
Unemployed persons. All persons who had no employment during the reference week, were available for work, except for temporary illness, and had made specific efforts to find employment some time during the 4-week period ending with the reference week. Persons who were waiting to be recalled to a job from which they had been laid off need not have been looking for work to be classified as unemployed.
So....no change eliminating people not looking for work. Apparently YOU did not look it up.
