Let's see 5% of 320 million? 16 million out of work. {his numbers} and he fills 173k? Must be common core math because that does not add up.

AHHH yes, the complete and utter stupidity of the Right-wing NO-Information Voter.

It adds up!

U-3 Total unemployed, as a percent of the civilian labor force (official unemployment rate)

157,065,000 divided by 8,029,000 = 5.1118963%

You bitching because first graders are not working?

 

[rightwinger]

Considering where we were and how hard Republicans tried to stop it.....5.1% is pretty damned impressive

The unemployment rate just hit a 7-year low.

94 million dropped from workforce numbers under obuthole. If you count them obuthole looks real bad.

5% of that means 16 million are unemployed.
174k get a job and you call that good?

And that's people collecting unemployment so even then it's NOT the REAL number now is it?

TIME Magazine Story on Unemployment Rate Is an Insult to Our Intelligence
September 04, 2015


RUSH: The unemployment numbers are out. TIME Magazine. This whole subject has been a source of great irritation for me. We now have, folks, 94 million Americans not working. The labor force participation rate is at an all-time low. Now, the labor force participation rate is a percentage of able-bodied people actually working, and it's 62.6%, which is really low, it's an historic low.

What it translates to real numbers is 94 million Americans not working, and yet they report the unemployment number 5.1%. It's an insult. It's an insult to everybody's intelligence, and here we have TIME Magazine, they go through all of these numbers very excitedly.

The fucking WACKO Subversives BELIEVE all the shit the MSM and DonkeycRATS spew at them... NOT A ONE thinks for themselves and CHECKS what really is happening!

TIME Magazine Story on Unemployment Rate Is an Insult to Our Intelligence - The Rush Limbaugh Show

"The US economy added 173,000 jobs in August while the unemployment rate fell to 5.1%. The total number of new nonfarm payroll jobs is about 50,000 lower than economists had expected," but that was tempered by the fact that estimates for job gains in June and July were revised up. Yay! And then comes: "Yet we are seeing no recovery in wage growth or labor force participation." Well, duh. Of course you're not seeing any recovery in wage growth or labor force participation because we are not creating any net new jobs because we do not have an economy, much less wages, growing. But the government says the unemployment rate's 5.1%. We had an unemployment rate with George W. Bush toward the end of his regime at 4.7%. That's statistically full.

I'm sorry, I just saw a picture of Biden wearing a yarmulke and I didn't know what it was. That's the kind of thing that makes me think I should turn the TV off. It's the biggest yarmulke I've ever seen is the problem. What in the world? I thought maybe it was a bandage, you know, more brain surgery. Excuse me, my friends. I was deeply distracted.

Also we have, you know, yesterday during the program we joined in progress the Trump, I guess you could call it a press conference, following his signing of the pledge. Man, you ought read about that, too. Depends on where you go in the Drive-Bys, he's either signed his death warrant, he's either signed away his legitimate chance at winning the Republican nomination. Or he has pulled one over on the Republicans. It's just, I don't know, hard to keep track.

It's a good thing I know what's right and what's wrong and it's a good thing this stuff does nothing but amuse me. But, boy, I can imagine people who don't know what they know, don't know what I know and are not as confident that what they know is right, going through the Drive-Bys could be just as confusing and depressing as anything you could do today. That's why I am here.

Anyway, 94 million Americans not working, it's all you need to know. Everything else is irrelevant. Ninety-four million Americans not working. The adult population of the country is 210, 220 million. For crying out loud, we're almost at half of the adult population not working. Sorry, folks, you're not gonna have economic growth, you're not gonna have wage growth, and you're not gonna have private sector growth because the government's taking it all, bit by bit, little by little, bite by bite.

TIME Magazine, "Yeah, yeah, we're seeing no recovery in wage growth or labor force participation." Now, if you're a neophyte and an idiot and you see the unemployment rate going down from nearly 8% to 5.1%, you would believe that we're creating jobs left and right. And if the labor force participation rate, meaning if the number of people not working goes up -- in fact, let me put it to you this way, see how you would explain it. The unemployment rate's going down, which is supposedly an improvement. Three years ago, two years ago, unemployment was at 8%. Today, it's at 5.1%. That's a huge improvement. So why are more people not working today than they were three years ago? How do you explain that?

How in the world can anybody, with economic expertise -- and I doubt... You know, how many people really know what the labor force participation rate is anyway? But here we have TIME Magazine. I mean, supposedly these are the Wizards of Smart. These are the people who've been to journalism school and they've been to college. They've been to university. Many of them have graduate degrees. They're supposed to know this stuff, and they're sitting there stymied. They believe the unemployment rate is 5.1%, down from 8%; they're perplexed.

"How come the labor force participation rate isn't any better? How come more people aren't working? 'Cause the unemployment rate says that's exactly what happened." No, it doesn't. For about the umpteenth time, the unemployment rate that is reported, which is categorized as U-3, does not count people who have been out of work for four years or more and have given up looking for a job. Yet they're still out of work, and they're still not working.

They've given up. Their unemployment benefits may have expired. They're still out of work, but they're not counted as being out of work, and people at TIME Magazine don't know that? It wouldn't be hard to get this story right, is the point. Now, I know there's a predisposition not to rain on Obama's parade. Obama says there's an economic recovery going on, an economic boom, and, of course, the Drive-Bys have to be in support of that.

I just saw a graphic: 5% of the gas stations in the country are selling gasoline at under two bucks a gallon. I think it was 5% of the stations. It might have been 5% of the... I think it was 5% of the stations. It was 5% of something. Anyway, that's great news for consumers there, but that does not indicate a growing economy, either. It's a little bit of a dichotomous situation.

See how totally stupid the Right is, even after I posted the definition of the U-3 unemployment rate, this idiot still uses the total population, which includes infants and sucklings, instead of the CIVILIAN LABOR FORCE.
And the Right are STUPID, not ignorant, the ignorant lack information but once they have it they learn. But as this moron has proven, even when the Right are provided the correct information they are STILL too STUPID to learn!!!

173,000?? you think that is good? Oh, I don't hate Obama, just his policies.

It's a lower number than the 800,000 per month that were being lost under shrub, but it's pretty good.
