Black unemployment falls to lowest mark since 2007

I quote the US Govt - the OBAMA ADMINISTRATION - reporting black unemployment is at 15.1%...

...and YOU call Barry a liar by posting DNC propoganda source CNN claiming black unemployment is now in the '8's...

Now that's some funny shit right there!

You posted the same number I posted. In your post #240 shit for brains. Jesus Christ

So you agree black unemployment is 15.1%, almost twice whites, which is what my link states...

Here's exactly what you posted:

"Even using Barry's own doctored numbers:

"Among the major worker groups, the unemployment rate for adult men declined to 4.3 percent in November. The rates for adult women (4.2 percent), teenagers (15.2 percent), Whites (4.2 percent), Blacks (8.1 percent), Asians (3.0 percent), and Hispanics (5.7 percent) showed little or no change over the month."

BLACK UNEMPLOYMENT is at 8.1% - almost TWICE that of whites. The 1st Black President hasn't done jack-shit for what Eric Holder called 'his own people'!"

You are correct - I made a mistake in the heated discussion. I was wrong. I admit it.
(St leadt I admit when I am wrong...)

The U6 is accurate.
U3 is misleading......because it doesn't give you a true picture of unemployment in this country.

The U3 has traditionally been the unemployment rate.

It still is the official unemployment rate despite conservatives' best efforts to change that to the U-6.

Yup...yup.

And we all know it's worthless. Doesn’t actually mean dick.
We're still losing jobs faster than jobs are being created.

Maybe in the rightwing echo chamber but not in reality.

U3 isn't reality.

Comeon.....you know it's not the real unemployment.......with only 62% LPR, 4.6% is not accurate.

Yes, it is, and, no, you are not.

It's been the official unemployment measure since the BLS has measured unemployment. It's only since Obama's been president and the U-3 rate has returned to a palatable number that the brain-dead right has tried abandoning the U-3 rate in favor of the higher and more ominous sounding U-6 rate.

 

[rightwinger]

Oh? How many of those 95 million Americans who are out of the work force do you think lost their job and gave up searching?

The point is all of them should be counted to calculate the REAL unemployment rate - Obama does not.

Why?
Almost 60 million of that 95 million are over 65 and retired
20 million are stay at home moms
Most of the rest are students not looking to work or handicapped

Only about 8 million of your 95 million are people who want to work but can't find a job

So why doesn't Barry count the 8 million unemployed in his unemployment #s?

Oh, because it would cause the unemployment rate to go up...

They do

Make you happy?

Good for you!
Both you and Trump seemed to think LFP was a major failing for Obama

I can't wait to keep posting how much better it was under Obama

By the way...my 85 year old mother is counted as out of the workforce
I will also be retired and out of the workforce before Trump is out

I don't recall ever claiming that the LFP should be 100%. But under Obama, we've regressed back to the 1970s, despite the fact that Millennials outnumber Boomers.

Now you are starting to understand....Why did it increase in the 1970s?
Women and Baby Boomers entering the workforce

What is happening now?
They are retiring at 4 million a year

LFP will continue to drop for another 15 years....AND ITS TRUMPS FAULT

And as Millennials outnumber Boomers, the additions to the workforce should offset retirees. But that's not what's happening because so many Millennials have dropped out.

There are only 8 million TOTAL looking for work
60 million are 65 and older

95M are out of the labor force, a great many of which are Prime Working Age.

How many are under 65, not in school, not handicapped, not taking care of small children?
Answer.......about 8 million

Another far left drone debunked narrative being run:

Bureau of Labor Statistics Data

Those numbers tell the real story!

 

[rightwinger]

$774,000 PER JOB

- THAT is how much the GAO said Obama spent via his nearly $1 trillion failed Stimulus bill for each job he CLAIMED to have saved / created...

That number assumes all stimulus money went for new jobs...

Half went for tax cuts, stimulus money also went for materials and to save existing jobs for police, fire and teachers

LPR is not a measure of unemployment

U3 unemployment under Obama is measured the same as every other president

Yes it shows how much the country is working and it is the lowest since the 70's, no matter how you far left drones spin it, Obama is worse than Bush and Carter!

 

[Roudy]

Good to see the rate continue to drop

Employers added solid 178,000 jobs in Nov.

The labor market perked up modestly in November as employers added 178,000 jobs and the unemployment rate fell to a nine-year low, providing more evidence of a solid economy in the final payroll report before an expected Federal Reserve interest rate hike.

The unemployment rate, which is calculated from a different survey than the payroll total, fell from 4.9% to 4.6%, lowest since August 2007





.

More liberal bullshit concocted numbers, just like the made up polls that showed Clinton 332 vs Trump 216, on Nov. 7.

They're on a mission to made Obama look good. Keep putting lipstick on that pig, guys. Does it reflect the millions out of work and stopped looking? No. Does it reflect the record number of food stamps? no. Does it reflect the hundreds of thousands of manufacturing jobs lost? No. Does it reflect record black unemployment? No. The list goes on and on. This is all leftist mumbo jumbo and a failed effort to save the first black president's disastrous legacy.

Think the BLS numbers are "made up"?

Ready to claim they are fake when they report on the Trump economy?

Lowest labor participation rate since the 70's which means you can flush those numbers down the toilet. More people are out of work and stopped looking in 50 years.

Bureau of Labor Statistics Data

Record 94,610,000 Americans Not in Labor Force; Participation Rate Lowest in 38 Years

Like I said, concocted numbers to make the disastrous Obama presidency look good. This is the narrarative CNN has decided it's going to push. Stupid delusional leftist idiots, if the economy was that good then why didn't Hiilary become president.

 

[Roudy]

Hahaha

It was only in year 2 of obozo's rein of terror that he tried to "pivot to jobs", remember? What has he done besides increase regulations and taxes? Two things that definitely don't lead to job growth.

here's yet ANOTHER idiot who is waiting for "trickle down" economics to pee on him.

GWB gave MASSIVE tax cuts (while engaging in 2 costly wars).....So, how was the economy under GWB's tax cuts????

Leftist socialism sure didn't work.

The job participation rate in this country is the lowest in many decades… Shit for brains

Well, fucked up liars, you well know you are lying through your teeth. You include retired seniors, students as young as 16, and stay at home mothers, and those physically or mentally unable to work. The unemployment rate is 4.6%, using exactly the same methods used when Bush was in office.

And the market is around 19,000, after a low of 6500 created the last time the GOP had it's way with the economy. I am very sure that Trump can triple the former number and reduce the latter number to a fourth of it's present value. Bet he does it by the end of 2019.

The numbers do not lie, most of the so called job creation over the last eight years have been part time service jobs replacing great paying jobs like mining jobs.

Thats right, numbers do not lie, but YOU DO:

All of the jobs growth has been full-time. Any other made up bullshit to share with us?

I said part time and service jobs… Dumbass

Just so you will be happy, I will report Trumps record numbers every month

Mud does not know the difference of just what the LPR and U3 are: he is really is that dumb.

Easyt is both rabid and mistaken. He is very easy to confuse.

More Americans are work today than at any time in our history.

I don't know, 94 million, record number of people not working isn't anything to tout about. If the biased media had any integrity, they'd be headlining this simple fact as to why Trump made it to the presidency. In other words, Obama was a total failure domestically and internationally. Instead the assholes are touting a "booming economy". At some point the media just starts looking like a bunch leftist lunatics.

 

[Roudy]

Obama and the Left's idea of a booming economy: Lowest number of people working in four decades.

The labor force participation rate falls to a 38-year low

Liberalism is a mental disorder.

Roudy is not telling you that more Americans are employed that ever in our history. 4.6% UE rate is fantastic.

Beginning in 2017, every month the national Labor Force participation rate is going to go down as Trump's policies fail. Check #377 link to it.

Every single month Trump will fail, and we have Roudy to thank for pointing it out.

Slightly over a year from now, Trump will have over a 100 million out of the workforce. We can have a little party while you pout that more retired people haven't been forced back to work
