Unemployment Rises to 6.2%

[EconChick]

you mean the civilian noninstitutional population?
Table A-1. Employment status of the civilian population by sex and age
the one where the population in June 2014 was 247,814,000 and in July 2014 was 245,756,000 for a DECREASE of 2,058,000? or did you mean the labor force, where the numbers did increase from June to July by 199k?

i mean anyone who could read the report (and subtract) would know that you posted some bullshit.

You're the only one posting bullshit. All of what you post is.

you're so right. i mean it's not like i sourced my numbers or anything.

Source your numbers?

I'll say it a million time if I have to.

Most economists have been indoctrinated in Keynsian BIG SPENDING theories because that's what most of our academic institutions teach.

Almost all of our Ivy League schools have that bias. Many of our captains of media, government and even industry come from those BIASED theories. They don't even know they don't know it.

People who have broken away from those theories are the true independent thinkers, but their numbers are smaller because of the sheer force of academic brainwashing.

So I'm supposed to be excited when you source some dumbass Keynsian big spender with a fancy title?

This is why the American people get it better than many of you.

"anemic" is a truly inaccurate description of the economy, and is obviously a word loaded by a hack and shot at the administration for rank political purposes.

The stock market may adjust by 10% over the next month or so, but no more after the incredible growth in 2013.

As long as stocks continuing averaging about 6% annually in relationship to 2% for bonds, our economy is no danger.

We keep telling you that because of the distortion of the Obamanomics, the stock market is no indication of the health of the economy.

Basically he took trillions of dollars, through fiscal and monetary policies, and threw it at the stock market to artificially drive down bonds and drive up stocks.

That's not how the free market works.

And the funny thing is - you libs claim to be all about helping the poor - yet all you did was help the well heeled in the stock market. While hurting the real economy by blowing up the debt at that.

People on main street are hurting.

But by all means keep touting the big spending Keynsian econ policies.

and anyone with half a brain and a background in economics would know the POTUS doesn't control the MARKET.

on three ... 1-2-3 ... DUUUURRRRRRRR 1

And anyone with a full brain (unlike you and your wee half brain) knows that an Executive Branch that refuses to enforce the Rule of Law and instead rules by the Whim of Bureaucrats dampens economic activity.

Wow, that was a dumb comment.

Yes, it is a dumb comment. The Civilian Population stat at the BLS is 248M - it excludes children, as anyone who ever bothers to read the reports would know.

Look at the chart again. June 2014 was indeed 247,814,000 but July 2014 was 248,023,000. An increase of 209,000

July 2013 was 245,756,000

SNAP. TALLY HO. Right on target.

Besides his reading comprehension with regard to my comments is pathetic as usual.

Wow, you are an idiot.

Here is what I posted AGAIN:

The civilian population increased by 209K, and jobs increased by 209K....a sign of an anemic economy which can barely create enough jobs to keep up with population growth.

 

[EconChick]

Siete, you're way our of your league. Why don't you go play with the kiddies or something. You can't even understand what either side is saying here.

Oh but come on, B, don't you know that pingy is the objective number cruncher here?

LOL, there is no such thing for starters and secondly he's full of shit half the time.

Thank you. I can respect someone who admits he made a mistake.

Peace.

No it's not. The slimey twisting of unemployment numbers is coming back to haunt you peeps.

well if you think adding 200k new jobs and an increase in averages wages is a bad thing i don't know what to tell you.

what color do you think the sky is?

Adding jobs, regardless of the number is always a good thing. Not adding enough jobs to cover the growth in the working population is not a good thing, and is strongly indictative of an economy that is still rocking along the bottom.

Six years after a recession, the economy should be robust and adding jobs at every level, but this one is not doing that. The key question is; why not?

The answer is easy. Keynesian economics is a flawed concept that only works in socialist fantasy. How many times does the world have to learn that lesson?

Erand, this is such a profound post, do you mind if I post it again?

I call shenanigans, you blithering idiot.

I NEVER claimed that a POTUS controls the market. The President certainly has a significant impact on the business and economic climate, but so far, we have resisted a complete command and control economy (thank the goddess).

But if Obama and the Progs get their way, we'll soon see more sectors taken over by the government. Their track record of cronyism-control has so far ruined:

- Education
- Health Care
- Real Community Banking that used to lend to Main Street and pay interest to savers
- Housing

Let's see what else they can destroy!

I challenge you to show where I or anyone uses the words, "POTUS controls the market."

I'm waiting.

Crickets.

You can't because those of us who come from the market approach would never say anything so stupid. But POTUS can screw up the environment in which free markets flourish.

if a POTUS can control the stock market then please tell everyone why 43 didn't halt the falling market dead in its tracks and prevent the big fallout that knocked the ladder out from under the economy...

S&P 500 $1,342.54 $805.22 -40%

One thing I can say for conservatives on this Board is they never do this shit you're doing. People keep telling you they didn't say X, and you post it over and over an over that they did. Not just a broken record. But a broken lying record.

Your credibility just took another hit.
