How to announce you are cooking the books without saying you are cooking the books…
The unemployment rate from the gov is imaginary anyway. They don’t even count people who aren’t actively looking for work, which is ridiculous because there are so many people who have given up. People doing part time aren’t counted for unemployment at all, even just 1 hour of work means you’re employed.
The number is bullshit and it’s probably over 20% or more, but always. Not just now under Trump. This number has been useless for decades.
Yeah, it’s like 24%
The myth of the “free market”
Workers in need of jobs and work to do: “I consent”
Consumers seeing prices skyrocket because things are in short supply despite record high demand: “I consent”
: “I don’t!”
Isn’t there somebody you forgot to ask?
holy shit, a quarter of the country
A quarter of the labor force, not the entire population
It’s entirely made up. They drop so much information from being counted that it’s just a joke number that means nothing.
U-6 includes marginally attached workers
Jobs report not unemployment rate but that’s equally useless
