The economists in that are in the BLS are not pOlitical appointees and have worked there with previous administrations. You really think that if Obama was telling them to fudge the numbers somebody would have come out by now?
Hilda Solis, an Obama appointee is the current boss. Besides, they know better than anyone if they open their mouths and get themselves fired, no one else is hiring.
You mean someone in the BLS wouldn't become a whistleblower and become a hero to almost half the population and become a celebrity overnight. He or she would not tell just to keep their job? Riiiight ........that sounds plausible.
Now you're creating your own scenario.
