LFP hits record low

60-70% of jobs created were part time. People couldn't find full time work.

Summer vacation surge, declines soon after.

Labor market still a train wreck.

Still more people unemployed now than in 2008

Anyone with a brain knows unemployment numbers are bullshit. It doesnt mean the unemployed are now employed. What it means is the unemployed are no longer on unemployment.

We added 800,000 part time jobs and shed 523,000 full time jobs.   Does anyone still wish to argue that Obamacare won't destroy full time employment in the us?

I would say there is at least some effect there.

Either way, the numbers aren't pretty.

Riiiiiight...the piece of legislation with the furthest reach into the economy since the Social Security Act of 1935...a set of laws that incentivizes the creation of part time employment...legislation that has been cited by companies in the service industry as a reason for them to  no longer make full time hires...that legislation couldn't possibly have anything to do with yesterday's horrible job numbers.

Dumbass.....

You want to demise the country, it starts with healthcare. This is what he's attempting to do.

WTH, Coach? 

"Demise" is a noun meaning "death".

Lets see, before Obama was around...jobs were being shipped overseas, people had no healthcare whatsoever, and the labor force had less full time jobs and outsourced everything


Here's a hint....its not Obama, its the corporations that are hell bent on making excessive wealth and profit by finding every single loophole they possibly can.  It doesn't matter who is in office....greed is just greed.



Think about it for a minute.  If Obama wasn't in office...would everything be perfectly ok????

1) Jobs being shipped over sea's, cheap labor.
2) Which people had no healthcare what so ever?
3) Corporations are in business to make money, politicians being bought off by lobbyist is another matter all together.
4) Probably not, but that is not the point, Obama is the POTUS, he wanted to be the man, unfortunately we got an idealistic child.

Horrible jobs numbers? relative to what exactly? the thrust of the article is that things are improving. Now if you want to argue in what manner and relative to what I am in but we still aren't sure of the economic impact of ACA, nor has it been resoundingly negative. Your comment was hyperbole wing nut stuff.

VERY well aware of that. Obama is purposely trying to kill this country.

Can't blame him for killing your brain cells.  They were non existent in the first place.

The fact that the country is in far better shape then when he took office I would say you are incorrect. He is certainly not trying to fuck things up, if you think he is mistakenly doing so then you have an argument.

Uhm. If you're aware why did you use it like you did? What the fuck is wrong with you!?

Uhm... what? The country is in a slightly better shape in some ways (mostly related to the cyclical nature of the economy and the fact that the recession ran it's course) but it's in a lot worse shape in other ways.

Overall, I'd say we're worse today than we were when Obama took office. Is Obama the only person to blame? No. Is he the only President to blame? Again, no. But he's the President now and his actions haven't helped - in fact many of them have had the opposite effect. So we shouldn't be surprised if he gets assigned some of the blame.
