They passed legislation redefining the term "Unemployment" to not include a whole bunch of those who are unemployed.
People that get cut off of unemployment aren't listed as unemployed, but they're not in the work force either.
>>55351659
>passed legislation redefining unemployment
Source on this? I understood it was just that labor participation was low, but I don't think labor participation was ever a factor in unemployment.

if people stop looking for jobs and reported as such they're no longer unemployed since you have to be looking for one to be considered as suck
>>55350838
>redefine unemployment to exclude people not actively looking for work
>wow magically the unemployment dropped by half, I did great!
>>55350838
Ok I'll bite, he only counts unemployed as those looking for work actively, anyone that looked for work and gave up due to king Niggers shit job creation/sustaination, is classified as employed.
FUCK OFF KING NIGGER REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
You can't debate Obongo's fan club. They are so blinded by Boss Nigger that they simply cannot admit the truth. Trying to change the mind of someone who refuses to be intellectually honest is a gigantic waste of your time.
>>55351793
The BLS used to consider anyone who wasn't working and completely able who wasn't on disability or welfare as "unemployed"
The recent definition change (I think it was redefined in 2009 and recently changed back in 2015) said only those who actively looked for work within 6 months were unemployed, completely ignoring people who didn't have work, ignoring people who stopped looking beyond 6 months and otherwise
>implying that after operation choke point, fast and furious, IRS scandal, VA scandal, people actually think the BLS is reporting real job numbers...
tinfoil bs aside. this is more proof that libs don't know economics. this is just the economy going backk to equilibrium and it's doing so in spite of obama.

>>55351793
The labor participation rate is not always measured, so it must be estimated.
When Obama was in his re-election cycle, this assumed rate of participation dropout was kept very steep by BLS - so he was able to achieve fabulous unemployment numbers during the election.
The Aristocrats!
>2013 Unemployment rate = 37.2%
>https://www.rt.com/business/us-unemployment-economy-crisis-assistance-006/
And that was 2 years ago, it has to be at least 40-50% by now
>>55351659
>>55351793
There is no law.
They've never counted people NOT looking for a job in the unemployment figures.
Also I love how the jobs numbers get revised to a third of their numbers every time they come out because this commie kike lying nigger government knows you retards will forget and not care about hte old number being a lie.

what did you expect from a liberal nigger
>>55350838
Labor force participation rate is very low, poverty is still high, real unemployment is high.
But you can't really blame Obama for all of these things. Many of these things are the fault of the American people. The American people are the ones underpaying each other and giving all jobs created since 2000 to foreigners.
>>55351858
Or people that have been looking for too long.
>>55350990
God Obama sucks!!...
President does not have that much influence on economy in the near term.
Congress has more influence through the power of the purse.
Under employment and work force participation are at all time highs. So while unemployment is low. Everyone is working crappier jobs or just stopped looking for work.

I support universal health care to an extent. But conservatives accurately predicted that Obamacare would hurt employment. I'm working a 30 hour a week job because if my company hires me for 31 hours, let alone a full 40 work week, they would be forced to give me healthcare (which I don't even need as I'm on a better, private plan). So while unemployment has gone down, meaningful unemployment has gone up. Tons of jobs are doing this.

Hey look I crossed out all the facts on this meme and injected my emotional spin.

What is the point of low unemployment if everyone is still crying for minimum wage and whining about income inequality?
Why do Liberals always ignore those two things? Same with consumer confidence and buying power
>>55354129
The companies on the DOW 30 from 2008 and today should also be listed under DOW Jones. Apple and Goldman Sachs, the biggest and one of the biggest corporations in the world, are now on the DOW 30
Same with Quantitative Easing, if any dumbfuck Liberals know what that is

and the department of labor and statistics a government agency disputes the federally tracked unemployment %. according to them and the irs more like 30% of the population is unemployed now days

not so fast... blaming Obama for:

>food stamps, LOL, it was Obama who wants minimal wage increases. yet you dumbfucks claim that minimal wage "shuts down industries"
>federal debt - cue the retards, blame poor people AGAIN, despite the billions corporations evade in taxes, and i thought u fags LOVED writing blank checks to the DoD for "muh freedoms": Here goes our debt
Army $244.9 billion 31.8%
Navy $149.9 billion 23.4% excluding Marine Corps
Marine Corps $40.6 billion 4% Total Budget taken allotted from Department of Navy
Air Force $170.6 billion 22%
Defense Intelligence $80.1 billion 3.3% Because of classified nature, budget is an estimate and may not be the actual figure
Defense Wide Joint Activities $118.7 billion 15.5%

Food stamps - $80 billion (the price of defense intel alone)

And yet if you completely obliterate ALL defense spending, US would still be borrowing billions upon billions upon billions just for entitlements and gibsmedat. Every time some fag goes "muh defense spending" you just KNOW they have no idea how the spending of the US government actually breaks down.

>At one of our dinners, Milton recalled traveling to an Asian country in the 1960s and visiting a worksite where a new canal was being built. He was shocked to see that, instead of modern tractors and earth movers, the workers had shovels. He asked why there were so few machines. The government bureaucrat explained: “You don’t understand. This is a jobs program.” To which Milton replied: “Oh, I thought you were trying to build a canal. If it’s jobs you want, then you should give these workers spoons, not shovels.”

even if this is true, why would people have such bias I wonder.
Demographically, the most new jobs went to the over-55 age folks — grocery baggers and Walmart greeters and the fewest to men 25 to 54 that bracket substantially lost jobs.
