For the intellectual midgets in this thread, here's a cartoon for you to explain why Obama is full of shit and why the UE rate is a complete lie:

We have more people in the workforce who are unemployed than the entire nations of the UK, France and Italy. Just some reality for the fools.
this is the last time I am going to explain this....YES the amount of eligible people who can work and are not working is growing every year...AGREED....HOWEVER
..many of those eligible are not working due to many different factors...is it because some can't find a job?...YES...however the others are not employed for many reasons due to:
INCREASING AUTOMATION
COMPUTERS....in which a small businessman for example can do all the jobs on a computer that he used to need a lawyer, accountant, bookkeeper, and tax preparer for.
PREGNANCY
TAKING TIME OFF TO STAY AT HOME WITH KIDS (I did this for almost a year)
SEMI-RETIRED
DISABLED
MENTALLY ILL
COLLEGE STUDENTS
GROWN ADULTS STILL BEING SUPPORTED BY MOM AND DAD
SPOUSES BEING SUPPORTED BY THEIR SPOUSES
CHILDREN
PEOPLE WHO ARE TRYING TO START BUSINESSES
RETIREES
THE RICH WHO DONT NEED TO WORK
THOSE WHO ARE NOT RICH BUT LIVE OFF STOCKS AND DIVIDENDS
THOSE WHO LEFT WORK TO GO BACK TO SCHOOL
THOSE WHO NOW LIVE ABROAD (like all the former Nazi's who are now American citizens and receive SS)
CRIMINALS (who have no intention of getting a job)
ALREADY WORKING PART-TIME AND CONTENT WITH THAT
the labor participation rate has been going down for many many years....not just since Obama took office.......it will continue to go down because our population is skyrocketing UP
and I'm sure there are more I left out........like I said before, its a measure of our wealth as a nation that you don't see many of these people out on the street starving and dying like you see in other countries
who's the fool now?
