This is the entire point I have been trying to make. The author shapes this as if the current administration is being purposefully deceitful. It’s no surprise that the U6 is so much higher, and if you wanted to be outraged at this, 2010 was a much better time than present day.
Accuracy comes from comparing historical U6 to current U6, not historical U3 to current U3. You cannot just say today’s unemployment number is misleading without acknowledging that every single unemployment number is misleading.
This was just written to purposely take a side on an issue and turn this into a right/wrong scenario. And this mentality is ridiculous, especially from an educated individual.
He’s getting ripped apart because there is no basis for his argument. The U3 has always been the number reported. He calls the 5.6% unemployment crap when it’s the same number that has been reported for decades.
Underemployment is a problem right now. But comparing that vs. historical U3 numbers tells you jack shit.
The gap has nothing to do with numbers being “massaged.” Unemployment has always been shown as the U3 number is my point. You’re just spouting one-sided rhetoric by complaining like you are.
And I’m not sitting here denying that there was a financial crisis. A pretty substantial one that we have been recovering from. The U6 will always have a larger gap from the U3 during a financial crisis. My point is that the recovery is happening, and just bitching that the U3 looks way better than the U6 is irrelevant and is just the go-to argument of playing party politics.
You kind of said a lot of nothing. True, the U3 isn’t the true unemployment rate, but it is the rate that has been used for decades, so it is still a fair comparison against historical unemployment rates.
The U6 has still steadily declined since Oct-09. While still high, it is undoubtedly trending in the correct direction. And a 6.2% drop in U6 from it’s peak, with only a 4.5% drop in U3 from the same time shows that people are actually getting back into the workforce.
It’s honestly the best shape the job market has been in since I graduated, and there are definitely good jobs out there for those willing to find them.
Seriously – watch the show with any girl you’re into. It’s a guarantee they already watch it anyway, It’s literally 2 hours of shallow judgments while getting red wine drunk, and you’re all buy guaranteed to get laid afterward. So long as you don’t say “I’ve got something to show you.”
Even if Tiger wins more majors, you’ll never see him hit another gear and pull away from the field like he did from ’00-’02. And Rory’s been the only golfer capable of it since.

I may pay all my other bills, but I refuse to ever get off my parent’s HBOGo account. I’ve earned that at least.

Funny thing about your friend is that it’s easy as shit to find illicit drugs in Vegas.

Killing that straw man argument today, huh?

A little short this month if you took that last night.
This reads like you think being called Turtle is a compliment.
Because this chick is crazy, drunk and stupid. Actually, pretty much the polar opposite of her bio.
While the power of a well-timed ‘fuck’ can’t be understated, it can most definitely be overused.

AAAAAANNNNDDD you ruined it. #FireJayTas

I forgot the 2000 US Open, which is right there with the British Open runaway. That Tiger Slam run was even more impressive than I remembered.
Best Tiger moments:
1) 2005 Maters #16 Chip-in
2) 2008 US Open putt on 18 to force playoff, then winning 18 hole playoff on one leg
3) 2000 British Open runaway
Can’t change my mind on any of those.
