[Faun]

It's that time again .... the president with the worst average unemployment rate after 88 months in office is...........

Ronald Reagan ..... 7.71%

The President with the worst average unemployment rate since World War II is?

Is still Reagan at this same point (91 months) in his presidency:

Reagan (R) .... 7.63
Obama (D) .... 7.56

So you're saying that even though Obama didn't inherit the oil shortage issue that Reagan did and Obama didn't have to deal with the Cold War and the necessary subsequent military spending that Reagan did, obama's unemployment numbers are still virtually as bad as Reagan's?
Truth is, your obama number is skewed because it is not weighed against a diminished work force number.

What do you think the relationship between unemployment and food stamps is?

I would suspect they go hand-in-hand.
The graph's projection turned out to be wrong as the number has increased beyond 2012.

Who cares? Presidents don't decide who works or who doesn't.

I'm just curious. Why would you average in the first month or 3 months or 6 months of a president's term implying that he had anything to do with that unemployment rate?

Funny how according to Liberals President Bush owned gas prices, unemployment rate and Katrina. But Obama doesn't own anything.

 

[Fang]

Obama called President Bush "un-Patriotic" for adding 4 trillion to the debt. But let me guess, according to Liberals Obama doesn't own the 10 trillion he added? If President Bush is "un-Patriotic", then Obama committed an act of treason.

The unemployment rate and other labor force statistics are based on the adult civilian non-institutional population and exclude children under the age of 16, active duty military, prisoners, and people in institutions (mental health care, nursing homes, etc). The Unemployed are those who are able to work and who are actively looking for work.

SNAP includes people in the military (which is a national disgrace imo) and children and people unable or unwilling to work. So while there's a general correlation in that they'll both go up in bad economic times and down in good, there's no actual relationship between the two and they can easily move in opposite directions.

Your off-topic deflection is noted and discarded. Thanks for tryin' anyway.

Funny how folks on the right don't wanna discuss the thread topic.

And it was started by a rightie.

Most of the unemployed have quit altogether looking for work under Barry... That's what Socialism does.

Oh? Discouraged workers are those who are not working but who want a job, could start work if offered a job, and who have looked for work at least once in the last year but not at all in the last month and who stopped looking because they believed there was no point:

So how are you getting that "most" of the employed have quit looking?

He inherited the greatest economic downturn since the great depression. Now the Repub Party says "Give us another chance, but with a lunatic."

Naw

Odd, you guys blamed Bush for 9/11.. he was barely 8 months in and didn't even have a full cabinet in place, thanks to Dems obstructionism.

That article does not support your claim that most unemployed have quit looking.
