Record 93,626,000 Americans not in labor force

Reduction in the workforce by the 16-24 range is not surprising, nor should it be concerning. That's what's going to happen when you have fewer high school dropouts and more people going to college.

ROFLMNAO!

Hysterical...

Then just what exactly are you trying to say? Because it makes absolutely no sense to try to play this off as if it's about college kids holding part time jobs. The primary reason the workforce participation rate has dropped for 16-24 year olds is because of lower HS drop-out rates, and higher college enrollment rates.

ROFLMNAO!

Sweet Mother... They just make it up.

But, hey... US unemployment is 43% and there's no way to explain that honestly that doesn't discredit everything ya stand for. And since the Left stands for dishonesty... that makes perfect sense.

Down from Bush's 53%.

I didn't start getting laid off until Obama was president. When Bush was president I was employed for 8 straight years

Under Obama

2009-laid off twice
2011-laid off twice

Hmmmm, I wonder why???

after bambi took over in 2009, he didnt lift a finger to stop the bleeding! i can still recall seeing so many small businesses in Collier/Lee counties shutting down. and then Bambi is either off to the other side of the world, vacation, or went golfing as the middle class went thru hell !!!

Don't forget he appeared on the Tonight show 30 days after being elected

Only a liberal would believe the job market is getting better. A liberal with a good job or government occupation. If a Republican was in office we would be seeing horrible numbers and a daily running account of how bad it is.

And 5 buck a gallon gas....

No, the gas price fiasco is completely a democrat green scam thing. Stockholm syndrome. They expect us to be grateful that the price is currently only double what it should be thanks to the green scam and the political whores who enforce it.

You are pinning the bogometer is you think that I am implying that kids should drop out of high school to "flip burgers". A part time job while being a student is a very good combination.

Don't you love how the far left make numbers up to protect their religion..

It was calculated using the same moronic hourly formula Stockman detailed to get his 42.9% rate, therefore it is just as made up as Stockman's.

No matter how you calculate it, the UE rate is lower today than when Bush left office.

See how the far left proves my point for me by making stuff up to manipulate the numbers to fit their narrative to protect the far left religion at all costs..

Your anecdotal evidence is meaningless. When George Bush left office, there were ½ million fewer people working in the private sector than there were when he became president; making Bush only the second president besides Herbert Hover to leave office with fewer jobs than when he started, in at least 100 years. Whereas under Obama, we have gained 8½ million jobs in the private sector. So while your career may have struggled more under Obama than under Bush, far more people lost their job under Bush.

Tons of part-time jobs means didley POOP

Not to people who ONLY want to work PT.
Those working PT for economic reasons is DOWN since Bush left office from 7,911,000 to 6,384,000 now.

I manipulated nothing, I simply applied Stockman's own formula for his 43% UE rate to Bush's last year for comparison. It's Stockman's "manipulation."

If you had followed the link posted by the Wing-Nut who posted the 43% claim you would have found detailed instructions on how Stockman arrived at the 42.9% rate. I simply used the same data for Jan 2009 in the same formula.

The Warren Buffett Economy Why Its Days Are Numbered Part 4 David Stockman s Contra Corner

At the present time, there are 210 million adult Americans between the ages of 16 and 68—to take a plausible measure of the potential work force. That amounts to 420 billion potential labor hours, if we accept the convention that all adults are at least theoretically capable of holding a full-time job (2,000 hours/year) and pulling their share of society’s need for production and work effort.

By contrast, during 2014 only 240 billion hours were actually supplied to the US economy, according to the BLS estimates. Technically, therefore, there were 180 billion unemployed labor hours, meaning that the real unemployment rate was 42.9%, not 5.5%!

Now you're just spouting nonsense; even more meaningless than your anecdotal evidence. By far, most of the jobs gained under Obama have been full time jobs. And for part timers who want to work full time but could only land a part time job -- that number decreased by 1½ million....

Total jobs since Obama became president (which started under a massive recession) ...

Persons working full time ... +5.2 million

Persons working part time ... +1.32 million

Persons working part time for economic reasons ... -1.5 million

For fun ... let's compare those numbers with the numbers under Bush ...

Persons working full time ... +1.6 million

Persons working part time ... +3.0 million

Persons working part time for economic reasons ... +4.7 million

Hey, lookie there! There are all the part time jobs you were looking for ..... including almost 5 million people who were forced to take a part time job because they couldn't find a full time job.

Do you see now why your anecdotal evidence is meaningless (to anyone other than you, possibly).

Lots of people would like to make money off of oil. Expand the market. What's more, driving down the price frees up money across the board and that creates jobs and wealth and makes the economy snowball. It's Obama energy policy that has caused the opposite effect.

If Congress will lift the ban on oil exports(Nixon's law), they can export more oil and expand the market...

Congress must lift the ban on U.S. crude oil exports. The ban is a terrible relic of the Nixon era that harms the American economy. As Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R., Alaska) has pointed out, restrictions on oil trade effectively amount to domestic sanctions. Combined with a mismatch in refining capacity, the ban on oil exports is creating a significant discount for U.S. light oil at no benefit to anyone except refiners and their foreign ownership. It has cost U.S. states, producers and royalty owners $125 billion in lost revenue in four years, according to industry estimates.
