My personal consumption has gone up thanks to the low gas prices.

The U-6 cannot help you understand why, or even if, there are more or fewer part time jobs,

too stupid and nliberal of course!! U6 is 12% because it includes those who are marginally attached.

Just adding in the marginally attached is the U-5, currently at 7.1%. The U-6 adds in part time for economic reasons, and is currently 11.5%.

But what does that have to do with your claims about measuring full time work and income using the U6?

Get it now?? If someone works 1 hour a week (part time) he is counted as employed in the u3 numbers but not in the u6 numbers!! Get it now??

no, because he's counted as employed in both. None of the alternative measures changes the definition of anything.

Perhaps you were thinking of whether or not someone appears in the numerator? For your example of a person working one hour a week, he's definitely employed.

But as for whether or not he's in the numerator of the U-6? No idea: not enough information.
If he wants and is available to work 35+ hrs/wk, AND his reason for working fewer hours is either slow business or can't find full time work, then he's part time for economic reasons

Obama's u6 is 12%, about 50% higher than before recession! Thats why income is down and we have fewer full time jobs than when Barry too over. And why most Americans think we are on the wrong track.

blah blah blah

Too stupid!

Pinqy just explained how EdwardBaiamonte completely misunderstood what he was talking about with employment measures, so EdwardBaiamonte is forced to pretend he wasn't caught yet again talking out of his ass in a clueless manner.

Do you see why we say EdwardBaiamonte is so slow, so very slow and has failed at everything in life? Do you understand now?

dear, are you saying u6 is not 12%???

 

[SteadyMercury]

dear, are you saying u6 is not 12%???

dear, I didn't say that but since you bring it up NO it is 11.5%.

Table A-15. Alternative measures of labor underutilization

Do you see why we say EdwardBaiamonte lacks the IQ to understand? That is why we say EdwardBaiamonte is so slow, so very very slow.

[SteadyMercury]

dear, are you saying u6 is not 12%

dear, I am saying it is 11.5% and I provided the link that proves it. Do you understand now? Do you see why we see EdwardBaiamonte is a compulsive liar who is too stupid to not get caught?

In fact only one week ago I pointed out to you it was 11.5%, at that time your lie was that is was 14%, and you said oops it is lower than you thought. That is here:

Part-time and an apartment -the new Norm Page 3 US Message Board - Political Discussion Forum

Yet somehow you have conveniently forgotten and are again caught lying. That is why we say EdwardBaiamonte lacks the IQ to even tell a good lie. Too 100% stupid!

about 50% higher than before Barry's recession??

Barry's recession that started in 2008, before he took office?

Do you understand now?

Do you see why we say EdwardBaiamonte lacks the IQ? It was shown to be 11.5%, question answered, yet he's stuck with his shallow little brain repeating himself in desperation.

Now you see why we say EdwardBaiamonte is so slow, so very very slow.

dear, are you saying U6 is not about 12%, about 50% higher than before the recession and this is a good thing??

 

[SteadyMercury]

Under Obama's idiotic liberal policies, like Obamacare, U6( real unemployment) has leveled off at 14% almost double the pre-recession norm.

dear, are you saying U6 is not about 12%, about 50% higher than before the recession and this is a good thing??

lol posts one week apart, both fail

 

[SteadyMercury]

dear, are you saying u6 is not 12%

dear, are you saying U6 is not about 12%

Hah caught lying so he tries to slip "about" in with a repeat and wipe the slate clean.

This is why we say EdwardBaiamonte is a compulsive liar and must never be believed? He lacks the IQ to make a sensible argument.

Do you understand now?

dear, are you saying U6 is not about 12%, about 50% higher than before the recession and this is a good thing??

Is there anyone besides you saying the U6 is 12% or 50% higher than shortly before the recession?

 

[SteadyMercury]

EdwardBaiamonte is stupid enough to get it wrong both ways, U-6:

Jan 2004 = 9.9%
Jan 2005 = 9.3%
Jan 2006 = 8.4%
Jan 2007 = 8.4%
Jan 2008 = 9.2%

Currently = 11.5%

Do you see why we say EdwardBaiamonte is slow, so very very slow?

No, it's 11.5%
[Quote about 50% higher than before recession![/quote]
December 2007: 8.8%
October 2014: 11.5%
Change: 31%

Thats why income is down and we have fewer full time jobs than when Barry too over. And why most Americans think we are on the wrong track.

And why most Americans think we are on the wrong track.

From 2008 at Toplines - Right Direction Wrong Track - February 4-5 2008 - Rasmussen Reports trade

16% Right direction
78% Wrong track


From Nov 2014 at Right Direction or Wrong Track - Rasmussen Reports trade

26% Right direction
67% Wrong track


You see why we say EdwardBaiamonte is slow? Lacks the IQ to understand the right direction wrong track is useless unless given historical context. So slow, so very very slow.

 

[EdwardBaiamonte]

Lacks the IQ to understand the right direction wrong track is useless unless given historical context. So slow, so very very slow.

so are you saying that 12% unemployment, fewer full time jobs, and declining income means we are on right track and nation has it backwards?
