They're going to blame Greeedy EEvul Corporations instead of where the blame actually belongs.

 

[Rozman]

They will find a way to show that unemployment dropped to 7.8%

Sure will Rozman.

Are they? I rather doubt that.

The Bureau of Labor Statatistics informs us:

OCTOBER 2011 MASS LAYOFFS - 131,173

Employers took 1,360 mass layoff actions in October involving 131,173 workers as measured by new filings for unemployment insurance benefits during the month, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reported today. (Data are seasonally adjusted.) ​

Each mass layoff involved at least 50 workers from a single employer. Mass layoff events in October increased by 44 from September, and the number of associated initial claims increased by 8,711. In October, 344 mass layoff events were reported in the manufacturing sector resulting in 42,946 initial claims. Monthly mass layoff data are identified using
administrative data sources without regard to layoff duration. (See table 1 and the note at the end of this​

release.)

And your NOVEMBER list to date only amounts to 90K+?


Your figures are probably not accurate for November.

I'll trust the BLS for good data.
