It's obviously time to cut taxes, deregulate, and ship more jobs overseas. :nod:

The number is extremely volatile and the BLS says there is no trend... and not to draw anything from the number...

...but, people on the right grasping for straws will anyway.

The participation rate has shown no clear trend in recent months and currently is the same as it was this past October. The employment-population ratio showed no change over the month (58.9 percent) and has changed little over the year. (See table A-1.)

Economic growth is down to 0.1% and 800,000 dropped out of the labor force last month.

Who is grasping for straws?

Faced with the loss of over 800,000 people from the workforce, Barack turned to his crack team of PR advisers to craft a positive spin to his most recent failure...

Cut taxes = Increased Disposable Income = Increased Consumer Spending = Economic Growth = Personal Income Growth

Is it THAT difficult to understand?

Wait just a garsh Don minute now. I thought the problem was that 47% didn't pay taxes. Now your saying we need to cut them more...while paying them less? Please go on... :popcorn:

No...raise taxes, regulate to the nth degree, decelerate growth and jobs will want to stay here.

Yeah! Get rid of that 10% of the work force engaged in collective bargaining and our problems are over. :thumb:

Stupid conk fvck :tothehand:
:ohno:

Funny thing is with all this talk of the end of western civilization as we know it, things aren't much different here than they ever are. A little better off than under W, but not much. 99% of locals are still one illness away from living on the street. Too bad most of you young pissants never got to see the real America. :coffee:

...before the Clean Air, Clean Water Act and creation of the EPA...

...when MOST Americans had a job with health and pension benefits, and affordable healthcare was available to those who were under/unemployed.

Troof!

The Donks are just too DISHONEST to admit the obvious!

True... :nod:
We've seen what socialism in it's mostly unchecked form does to America (see Detroit and the Auto Industry Obama-care) and we've seen what Capitalism unchecked does to America (Wall Street at the top and Wal-Mart-ization at the ugly bottom)

and honestly I'm not sure which is WORSE for America
because ultimately all of the above is what America has become like it or not
Un-checked Socialism ripping apart one end and Capitalism ripping apart the other

You can kill somebody with Chocolate cake (I'm not kidding) and America really needs to eat it's vegetables but nobody is willing to do that in the face of mountains of chocolate cake
