Do you believe that the current 6.6% is the same as the 6.6% of approximately 10 years ago?bluehenbillk wrote:Unemployment almost back to a normal level. If the stock market can have a correction is it viable to say so can unemployment figures???
Not even close. Factor in "no longer in the work force" and this number skyrockets.CAA Flagship wrote:Do you believe that the current 6.6% is the same as the 6.6% of approximately 10 years ago?bluehenbillk wrote:Unemployment almost back to a normal level.

Vic, you're the exception, not the rule. Most people in your situation have just stayed on long-term unemployment and let others pay their bills for them. They expect to just waltz back in to a job paying the same or more than what they lost when Obama's economy shit the bed.VictorG wrote:Not only that, I wonder how many "newly employed" are making 30% - 40% (or higher) less than their last job.
It's been over 10 years since my good paying job was eliminated and shipped over seas and I'm now back up to about 60% of where I was then.

Everyone knows the labor participation rate only holds so much validity anyway - it's kinda like looking at the Dunkel or Sagarin ratings after two weeks of football. There are probably more people than ever working under the table that don't have to pay taxes or for healthcare, etc...
Unemployment % goes down, stock market goes way up, cut government spending, GOP utopia.....![]()
