[The Other Side]

This is the problem with mis information.

Take this example.. from your link OLDY.

""To add insult to injury, Obama has presided over the cutoff of federal extended jobless pay, leaving more than three million long-term unemployed people without any cash benefits.""

A tricky sentence for people who dont have the ability to understand what is being said. It implies that OBAMA was responsible for the cutting of benefits, when in fact, its the republicans in congress who fail to act.

The president did preside at the time, but had no responsibility for the lack of action by the congress.

You ignore the facts and cherry pick a number. Again.

The jobs report revealed that nearly 100,000 people dropped out of the labor force last month, while wages continued to decline. The total number of working-age people who are not in the labor force hit a new record: 92.5 million, up by more than two million since September of 2013.

From your link... did you MISS this part????

""the levels of unemployment for workers who remain jobless for more than six months is among the most persistent, negative effects of the Great Recession," noted a recent Rutgers University survey.""

How do you blame president Obama for the great recession and its affects today on americans?

Your beloved President Bush screwed this country for decades to come. The right wing policies of trickle down economics has a lasting negative effect on our economy and only fundamental change to the way business is being done in the USA will fit it.

As long you shop at walmart, you are a part of the problem and not a part of the solution.

From your own link...

“While the unemployment rate for the short-term unemployed—people out of work for six months or less—has returned to pre-recession levels, the levels of unemployment for workers who remain jobless for more than six months is among the most persistent, negative effects of the Great Recession," noted a recent Rutgers University survey.""

Nice of the socialists to throw a desperate dog a very small bone.

When I read the article in it's entirety, it's obvious you are having to reach. But then your counterparts on the other side (no pun) of the isle have to reach as well when they ran/run the show. It's what you both do so well.

Good link Old. As I've said before, some of the best critiques against Obama is from the radical left itself albeit the one you linked wasn't that direct. Besides, you won't hear the tired excuse that your links are "blah, blah, blah" you know the rest of that argument. I'm sure they'll come up with something however!

Show us the whole picture. Then decipher it for us.

And please, avoid showing us anything from the BLAZE!

That's what I thought. You're just regurgitating faux news talking points with no actual data to back it up. Thanks for playing. Better luck next time.

I don't get Fox Business Channel.....didn't demand it, I guess. Ch 44 has business and stock market stuff in the A.M.

Like stops said, nothing more than talking points to offer. At least oldy in desperation uses something from the blaze.

The whole point of my post was to point out the obvious, neither Rmoney or Obama has any influence over jobs numbers. Rmoney whispers sweet nothings and the rubes gobble it up. He'll be back for another round before you know it, with the same smooth talk.

By the way you phrase that statement with slander you discredit your statements. But you never let facts sway your prejudices anyway.

I find that equally true with both sides of the economist spectrum. But congrats on getting it half right not unlike your dreaded wingnuts.

The question, which can be debated but not definitively answered, is why people are choosing to not participate in the labor force.

Have you considered that the huge increase in the participation rate from the 60's and 70's might be directly related to the decrease 40 or so years down the road? Retirements and older people going on disability are probably a huge factor in the numbers. The stock market has been doing pretty well lately, I'd guess many who were putting off retirement because of the recession are feeling a lot better about it now. I wouldn't be surprised if the participation rate goes down no matter how well the economy gets.

There are a lot of reasons people could be choosing to not participate in the labor force. I hear people point at the participation rate as proof that Obama is doing a poor job. Personally, I prefer him do as little as possible.

My dream is to be a non participant in the labor force.

I think a large part of it is in there not being jobs available that fit the person. Yes there are a lot of jobs available in low skilled or PT jobs. But if you were a person making 100K a year and that job went away. Now the option they have is to work PT? Or work at a 10/hr job. I think a lot of people won't do jobs they did when they were in college 30 years ago. At least I believe that is a part of it.

You make a good point. The one thing I've always thought about with the slow rebound in employment is that when the 2008' financial crash occurred, because specifically the real estate and finance market was in shambles, those jobs aren't coming back. And a lot of people worked directly or indirectly in that sector. And there was no other industry or business sector large enough to absorb all those people.

its not important what is next. you made the dispute a right wing nut job issue, I provided you a left wing nut job who also disputes the Obama numbers. Thus it rebuts your right wing nut job theory. try to keep up.
