Romney and GOP in Panic After Unemployment drops to 7.8%

So much for your username being truthful.
Not like I expected anything different though.
Yawn.

7.8%

Prove it is wrong

It doesn't count people who quit looking for jobs, people who aren't even trying and people who want full time jobs and are working part time.

Liberals love this argument though, don't you? You argue whether 7.8% is accurate which prevents you from having to defend how badly the number sucks, even without all the people it doesn't count.

If you actually cared about unemployed people, the first three things you would do are to eliminate the minimum wage, cut taxes on investors and remove the tax on repatriating corporate income earned overseas. You could give a crap about the unemployed, you care about yourself. Liberalism is the ultimate selfish ideology.

OK, I'm not sure what conclusion you're drawing from that. The real number was worse then the reported number then too, how are Democrats going to argue that?

The June - August numbers?

Already answered that question, read my responses.

You're saying the unemployment number is a lot worse than reported? Prove that

The U-3 rate never did for Bush either, so why do we need a different yardstick for Obama???

Only panic would cause them to flock to an insane conspiracy theory. That's how panic works.

I'm not backing up a point that you won't even acknowledge much less address. I said why the reported number is low even if it's "accurate." Address it first rather then playing games.

Democratic policies keep people unemployed even in a good economy. I gave three great examples, the minimum wage, high investor taxes and taxes on repatriation of money invested overseas. You don't live in a glass house, you have no walls at all. Democrats in the name of helping the poor unendingly create them.

Which Obama program made this all possible?



I'm waiting......

So Obama in your opinion is blameless for anything bad that's happened in the last 3 1/2 years?

That doesn't seem to be supported by either your posting history nor by your rightwing pals around here.

I'm not doing your work for ya bud, the August unemployment numbers you say we're a lot worse than please show us. Give a credible link.

So what you're really saying is that Obama inherited an unemployment situation that was much worse than the official UE number indicated.

It follows the formula for computing unemployment. To prove it wrong, show where they have deviated from the unemployment algorithm.

Republicans are free to have an independent assessment of this months unemployment number. Where is it

As to your suggestions.....absolute worst things we could do
But it Would make the one percent very happy

165 Million As State Dependents

and suddenly, over 165 million people, a clear majority of the 308 million Americans counted by the U.S. Census Bureau in 2010, are at least partially dependents of the state.

So we could get lots of jobs back from places like China if we could match their wages, i.e., 50 cents an hour?

Is that really the kind of country you want America to become?

Why, for God's sake?

Maybe if they hold their breath their world view would eventually meet with reality.

If unemployment is going down why is government dependency going up?
