Thread: Stimulapalooza: 3.6 Million Jobs Lost is “Quite Positive;”

Today we learned first-time applications for unemployment benefits this week are an incredibly high 385K. Now 40.2% of Americans have been unemployed longer than 27 weeks. There is clearly no sign of economic recovery. Ben Bernanke has stated he will continue to print money until the reported unemployment rate gets down to 6%. But this administration, its liberal minions and the complicit Orwellian media want you to focus on gun control, same-sex marriage and more empty campaign rhetoric. America, we need to take back the reins.

Record 89,967,000 Not in Labor Force; Another 663,000 Drop Out In March http://bit.ly/Y38FOY

Since President Barack Obama was first inaugurated in January 2009, 9,460,000 people have dropped out of the labor force.

'LIKE' and 'SHARE' if you agree --> the media are NOT telling the American people the REAL story about unemployment in America

More reality -> thanks to Obama's horrible economy. Temp agencies are the second largest employer in America with a record number of people working temporary jobs. Remember THAT the next time Obama spins the employment numbers!

Rupert Murdoch ✔ @rupertmurdoch

Friday job figures terrible.
Lowest percentage in work for 30 years.
20% of workers on part time.
Average wages going down, food etc prices up.

The narrative coming from the Obama administration and the elite media would lead us to believe that the economy is coming along wonderfully.

Randall Stockdale @RandyStockdale

@rupertmurdoch Increased taxes,
Obamacare,
lower wages,
equal greater dependency on Government.
This is their goal.

Obama now killing off jobs prematurely: ‘We don’t have bank tellers’
By Doug Powers • September 17, 2013 12:44 PM

The economy is in rough enough shape without the president trying to kill off jobs that aren’t even gone yet. Obamacare will do its thing — there’s no need to force the issue even more! http://michellemalkin.com/2013/07/05...-or-vice-versa

From a transcript of Sunday’s ABC This Week, via White House Dossier: http://www.whitehousedossier.com/201...-bank-tellers/

GEORGE STEPHANOPOULOS:

–top 1%. Do you look at that, four and a half years in, and say, “Maybe a president just can’t stop this accelerating inequality?”

PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA:

No, I think– I think the president can stop it. I– the problem is that– there– continues to be a major debate here in Washington. And that is: How do we respond to these underlying trends? If– if you look at– at– at the data– couple of things are– are– are creating these trends.

Number one, globalization. Right? Capital, companies, they can move businesses and– and jobs– anywhere they want. And so they’re lookin’ for the lowest wages. That squeezes workers here in the United States, even if corporations are profitable. Technology. If you go to– a lot of companies now, they’ve eliminated entire occupations because they’re now robotized. We don’t have travel agents. We don’t have bank tellers.

I saw three bank tellers when I was in the bank this morning, and I spoke to a travel agent last week. Travel agents might be fewer and farther between these days, but I see plenty of bank tellers. As a matter of fact, according to the BLS, in 2010, there were 560,000 bank tellers. http://www.bls.gov/ooh/office-and-ad...rt/tellers.htm

Remember when the press labeled President George H.W. Bush as “out of touch” for his interest in a grocery store scanner? http://www.nytimes.com/1992/02/05/us...et-amazed.html

As President Bush travels the country in search of re-election, he seems unable to escape a central problem: This career politician, who has lived the cloistered life of a top Washington bureaucrat for decades, is having trouble presenting himself to the electorate as a man in touch with middle-class life.
