and falling, why don't they come out with an unemployable rate? I've been interviewing candidates for 2 months trying to find a new salesperson & you should see some of these resumes....

148,000 created out of an "expected" 180,000. Participation rate holding at 35 year lows...

To top it off, Wall Street loves that shit.
Welcome to the days where down is up and up is down.

Bill, get used to all the "unemployable" out there, it's the "new normal".

Well, on the bright side, for those of us who are employable, we are entering an age where we can get a job whenever we want and likely hold onto that job for as long as we want as well. The trick is to make sure your kids don't end up entering adulthood as one of the unemployable and just adding to what's already becoming a very large constituency. Those who can work hard and excel should see their efforts handosmely rewarded in the future, even if they have to carry the burden for those who can't or won't.

The “unemployment rate” is no longer an adequate measure of the true state of employment.

EXCERPT:

The number of Americans who are 16 years or older and who have decided not to participate in the nation’s labor force has climbed to a record 90,609,000 in September, according to data released today by the Bureau of Labor Statistics.

The BLS counts a person as participating in the labor force if they are 16 years or older and either have a job or have actively sought a job in the last four weeks. A person is not participating in the labor force if they are 16 or older and have not sought a job in the last four weeks.

In from July to August, according to BLS, Americans not participating in the labor force climbed from 89,957,000 to 90,473,000, pushing past 90,000,000 for the first time, with a one month increase of 516,000.

In September, it climbed again to 90,609,000, an increase of 136,000 during the month.
In January 2009, when President Barack Obama took office, there were 80,507,000 Americans not in the labor force. Thus, the number of Americans not in the labor force has increased by 10,102,000 during Obama’s presidency.

I'm too lazy to look it up, plus I have a job & don't have the time; however, if you want to get a true gage on the labor force participation you need to look it up by age. The Department of Labor has those figures somewhere.

Don't think so, GannonFuck. It's the responsibiliy of the employable to create jobs, with livable wages, for the working class. If you don't, they will kill you and your employable kids.

The employable and accumulators of capital have not been holding their end of the deal since the 50's and they all are going to pay dearly.

Helluva world you created for your children - war, environmental destruction, famine, disease.... Chances are your kids, definately your grandkids, will suffer in a world gone mad. All your fault too.
Again, the hippies were right.

Yeah, but the unemployable don't understand the basic engineering concepts of building a defensible bunker, the geometric concepts of fields of fire, or the logistical concepts of crop rotation and planning.

I just watched World Wat Z over the weekend. As long as we hold onto Brad Pitt I think we can hold out against the undead, the unemployable, and anything else that comes out of Iowa. If we lose Brad Pitt, it's all over, though.

One of the reasons why I feel good about my relocation to northern Michigan in February

The legend lives on from the Chippewa on down
Of the big lake they call Gitche Gumee
The lake, it is said, never gives up her dead
When the skies of November turn gloomy
With a load of iron ore twenty-six thousand tons more
Than the Edmund Fitzgerald weighed empty
That good ship and true was a bone to be chewed
When the gales of November came early

The ship was the pride of the American side
Coming back from some mill in Wisconsin
As the big freighters go, it was bigger than most
With a crew and good captain well seasoned
Concluding some terms with a couple of steel firms
When they left fully loaded for Cleveland
Then later that night when the ship's bell rang
Could it be the north wind they'd been feelin'?

The wind in the wires made a tattle-tale sound
When the wave broke over the railing
And every man knew, as the captain did too
'Twas the witch of November come stealin'
The dawn came late and the breakfast had to wait
When the gales of November came slashin'
When afternoon came it was freezing rain
In the face of a hurricane west wind

When suppertime came, the old cook came on deck
Sayin' "Fellas, it's too rough to feed ya"
At seven PM a main hatchway caved in
He said, "Fellas, it's been good to know ya"
The captain wired in he had water comin' in
And the good ship and crew was in peril
And later that night when his lights went out of sight
Came the wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald

Does anyone know where the love of God goes
When the waves turn the minutes to hours?
The searchers all say they'd have made Whitefish Bay
If they'd put fifteen more miles behind her
They might have split up or they might have capsized
They may have broke deep and took water
And all that remains is the faces and the names
Of the wives and the sons and the daughters

Lake Huron rolls, Superior sings
In the rooms of her ice-water mansion
Old Michigan steams like a young man's dreams
The islands and bays are for sportsmen
And farther below, Lake Ontario
Takes in what Lake Erie can send her
And the iron boats go as the mariners all know
With the gales of November remembered

In a musty old hall in Detroit they prayed
In the Maritime Sailors' Cathedral
The church bell chimed 'til it rang twenty-nine times
For each man on the Edmund Fitzgerald
The legend lives on from the Chippewa on down
Of the big lake they call Gitche Gumee
Superior, they said, never gives up her dead
When the gales of November come early

Where in Northern Michigan?

[89Hen]

Where in Northern Michigan?

Isn't that like asking where in North Dakota?

[YoUDeeMan]

Well, there's Northern Michigan, and then there's the UP.

[DSUrocks07]

No kiddin'

Where in Northern Michigan?

Traverse City

Isn't that like asking where in North Dakota?

You mean God's Country

[89Hen]

Traverse City

At least they have an airport. Buddy of mind goes up there every summer. Supposed to be really nice, but can't imagine the winters.

[YoUDeeMan]

Traverse City...looks like a nice place!

http://www.ci.traverse-city.mi.us/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

About the size of Newark...without the college population. Lots of water up there (frozen a good part of the year ) and it looks as though you'll be getting some snow on that side of the lake, so get yourself a good snow blower and some fishing equipment (normal stuff during the summer, chain saws, a portable shed, and parkas during the winter season).

My in-laws have a place due North, across the lake, near Engadine. If you love open country, you're going to have a blast. Be prepared to see a LOT of stars...it is a different world away from the megalopolises of the East and West coasts.

When are you moving?

Yes but lack of internet, Honey Boo Boo and wonderbread will thin those ranks greatly before the hordes make it to my little bastion of employables.
