    Again, the real unemployment number is not below 5%. Getting emotional isn't going to change that.

    Look at the chart dipshit. The gap between the U3 and U6 IS NOT substantially larger than it has been in the past. Look at 1994.

    You are the SHEEP fool

      another fine example of how you don't understand economics, simply comparing numbers from different times is a big no-no without reasons and you even learn that intro statistics too. Twice you didn't pay attention. Also another reason why economics is not a science but you wouldn't even begin to understand that.


      Also, the difference is larger. Percentage points matter you fool but not as much as the reasons why which you completely pass over like the sheep you are. Millions of people leaving the work force are not going to come back this time and there will be even more if hillary wins. And, that doesn't even factor in TPP. As usual you don't have a clue what is going on, you're just a headline reader and think you know something.

        What proof have you posted brooks?
        No link, no stats....nothing.
        Youre attacking grease for posting illegitimate stats while you post absolutely nothing.
        Nothing.


        Not even an opinion on the unemployment rate.
        Just bullshit like "its not 5%". "I have nothing to back this up but, just trust me!".
        You cant just disagree with someone while failing to provide proof to support your argument.


        Well you can but, thats why people are calling you a child.
        Because thats how it comes off when you post.








        Just trying to help you improve your posting style.


        Stay safe Brooksy.

          catch up you fool, not going to post the same thing 100 times when I'm talking to a proven sheep like grease who will just ignore it. Plus, an idiot like yourself wouldn't even understand it. Honestly a wonder why you even post in these threads when you know you're going to embarrass yourself like in the NFL thread.

              well I'm not too worried about what an admitted idiot thinks jay lol but I appreciate the comedy of you embarrassing yourself over and over. You can't even remember your own posts but you're going to tell someone what you "think." The clown show is great jay.

                  hilarious cause grease already posted a link proving what the real unemployment rate is.


                  I really do enjoy your stupidity jay and even funnier since you're an admitted idiot. Don't have to feel bad about watching you be stupid. But damn you do some great work lol the way you get that foot in your mouth and at such speeds... impressive

                      He has no link. I posted the link with both U3 and U6.

                      Everytime brooks (or any other person that tries to dishonestly discount the recovery) says something like, "The unemployent number is phony because that is not the real unemployment number", they are referring to the U6 number.

                      The problem with that is, the U3 is the official number, it always has been. And the U6 is not bad at all when you compare it to what is has been in the past.

                      Jay, look at the chart half way down the page and you will see what I am saying. http://unemploymentdata.com/unemploy...-unemployment/

                        lol hilarious how you put your foot in your mouth after being embarrassed on this very subject. Literally just the page prior. You think it is true because the government told you so. That is just hilarious.

                            Ok brooks, so you are making a thinly veiled suggestion that at some time in the past, the U6 was the generally accepted unemployment number???

                            SHOW US WHEN or STFU

                              I haven't made any thinly veiled suggestion. I've been very clear in proving what a sheep you are. Well you do the work I just pointed it out.

                                Brooks.... anytime a member of the media or an economist, or anyone, ever, has said,

                                "Unemployment is at..."

                                Followed by a percentage, they are referring to the U3.

                                Period. It is the official baseline number used to gauge the level of employment in the US.

                                Period.

                                  I truly enjoy how you keep proving what a sheep you are.


                                  And, you are 100% wrong about the economist part. The same reason you were wrong on brexit, you follow tools, not real economists. There is a reason real economists knew brexit was a good thing and a huge buying opportunity.



                                  I can keep saying at it and you can't do anything about it but show what a sheep you truly are. The real unemployment rate is not 5% and you can't change that with your sheepness.

                                    I will go a step further, it starts at the education level and at home. As a teacher, I see the kids that show up in my class room each day; unmotivated, without direction and skills, more concerned with their phone or ipad. Pushed through the system so that they don't become data used against schools for funding. Some of these students are pushed to be college bound when many of them should be in a trade school; learning a skill to make a living. I wouldn't say that the youth feel entitled but they can figured out quickly that their family survives on government handouts and they're ok to continue the trend that they learn at home.....education is unnecessary, just do what make you feel happy and refute discipline and directives.

                                          Really baldy? Haven't been unemployed in my life. Haven't made less than 6 figures on the books since I was 23. Just remember baldy I can buy and sell you and your entire family tree with the cash sitting in my nightstand.

                                          When you own businesses that employ over 200 people then you can talk. Until then put that mouth around Opie's dick or he will smack you like you were his wife.

                                              And, you are 100% wrong about the economist part. The same reason you were wrong on brexit, you follow tools, not real economists. There is a reason real economists knew brexit was a good thing and a huge buying opportunity.



                                              I can keep saying at it and you can't do anything about it but show what a sheep you truly are. The real unemployment rate is not 5% and you can't change that with your sheepness.


                                              Brooks you are a little fukking baby.

                                                    I have no doubt considering the multiple things I've proven about you. Very ignorant, emotional and a sheep. The emoticons really drive it home.


                                                    There is a reason I even used your own posts to prove you have no idea what you're talking about because they contradicted each other. Then you have the 28 pages, brexit, trump and when you pretended to be a moderate which lasted for 2 posts lol so ya I have no doubt I bug you. You're no different than acoochy, thor, kraken, chico, rkelly, khicks, d2, jay, jtoler and so many others who hate facts, logic and being proven a sheep.

I know a hard worker who at the age of 55 lost their position due to downsizing and he went from making a 6 figure income to places like the stop and shop bakery or home depot not even calling back. Been unemployed for about a year now and before someone turns it into a race issue, he is white middle class. He applies to different jobs every day to no avail. He's currently resorting to Uber...driving a car that he leased right before lay off and murdering the miles on that car.
                                                                        This is truth. Companies are blatantly not hiring older workers although the country has become older. You might be able to find part time work or seasonal but good luck finding permanent work if your middle aged.
