    Jack, I hear the bathrooms at the Costco get mightly slippery. I think if you had a little "accident", then you might walk away with a nice little settlement. We might even starting calling you Lucky.

    But you're above that, aren't you? Sure you are.

    ........turn the coin and 90.7% employment is not too bad....

    ...had it not been for the success of the stimulus we would be at 20+ unemployment thanks to the Bush/GOP recession....

    That's a good point.

    I bet you didn't think about that, did you, Jack?

    Over 30 million people that want to work but can't find jobs is a good thing. Gotcha!

    Unemployment is way above 10 percent. "........turn the coin and 90.7% employment is not too bad...." is a straight up lie.

    Keep Obama in office and the dems that follow him and you are the ones wanting America to fail.

    There are only about 150 million US workers, so your claiming that unemployment is really above 20%!

    "90.7% employment is not too bad."

    except the several % of those are re-employed at a (much) lower income than on previous job. aka, they are overqualified/underemployed and/or part-time employed.

    And another several % are unemployed but not counted because they gave up looking.

    Unlike all other industrial countries Americans, Productivity World Champions and Dupes, work more with less vacation. The trend is to work more/less vacation, while household incomes remain stagnant (working more doesn't mean making more, unless your top mgmt and investors):

    http://archives.cnn.com/2001/CAREER/.../30/ilo.study/

    It's all part of a the Repug/Movement Conservative/corporate/capitalist plan to over/exploit/impoverish US citizens, firing millions of them, dumping more work and more hours on intimidated employees, while the mgmt and investment funds pay themselves for their crimes.

    btw, illegals aliens are perfect for employers, as they are often badly underpaid, even upaid, no benefits, no vacation. Easy to see why Repugs didn't fix the illegal immigration problem for their 6-year Reign of Error, and then dumped the false "problem" on Magic Negro for electoral gain, then will not do anything effective about illegal immigration, once again betraying their roused-rabble base, and blaming Magic Negro for that, too.

    In case you didn't know, America (the lower 95%)is ed and un able. The top 5% have amassed too much wealth and power and are now completely out reach of the lower 95%.

    Tell that to people in countries where unemployment is from 10-25% or more.....they'll take a crappy job over no job and welfare

    Jack is pro child labor, so that number is skewed.

    The cause is the huge mismatch between job demand and job supply, with 5 or so demanders for every job offer.

    When the jobs have increased recently, the unemployment went up, because withdrawn demanders came back into the market.

    90.7% employment? Really now, are you that stupid? there is probably 19% (+/- a little) unemployment. It may be as high as 35% now, but look it up yourself if you care.

    The 9.x% figure is from regular survey. It includes those looking for work. Not the underemployed or those who gave up.

    Keep Obama in office and the dems that follow him and you are the ones wanting America to fail.
    I heard yesterday that the unemployed oil workers from the moratorium is up to 8,000.

    Way to go Obama.

    No, your claim is wrong. There probably are about 30,000,000 unemployed if you look at the right unemployment table of the many. Problem is, they seem not to collect those statistics any longer. The current 9.6% is from table A-1. Used to be something like A-5 I think, but apparently, they want to hid the awful truth of how many people are really unemployed.

    The August 201 figures are based on a nonins utionalized population of 238,099,000 people. Of that, 154,110 people are working or looking for work. This is a participation rate of 64.73%. 139,250,000 are working, or 54.58%. This means from this calculation, 90.36% are working of the 64.73%, and 9.64% are not working.

    But seriously, Jack... There's no shame in slipping on pee-pee at the Costco. If it's what you got to do to be a self-made man, then it's what you got to do.

    I'm not here to judge.
