The link shows unemployment at 8.7%

This from the CBO today:

"Had that portion of the decline in the labor force participation rate since 2007 that is attributable to neither the aging of the baby boomers nor the downturn in the business cycle (on the basis of the experience in previous downturns) not occurred, the unemployment rate in the fourth quarter of 2011 would have been about 1? percentage points higher than the actual rate of 8.7 percent"
Translation: CBO just admitted that the BLS numbers are bogus and real unemployment is 10%.

The birth/death model on new businesses / dying business is a junk model as are most of the BLS statistics as well as other government agency numbers (as far as I am concerned)

This week, several hundred thousand jobs will magically vaporize from the BLS birth-death model.

Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Victory Lane
As President Barack Obama gears up his 2012 election campaign, it is important to take a look at his approval rating. Without a doubt, his rating was at a new low - 40% - during the debt debate, but new Gallup data shows his national approval rating is actually an improvement in comparison to the data from 2010.

President Obama received a 50% or higher in 16 states and D.C., which is a sign of improvement since only 12 were at that level in 2010. Idaho is the least approving state, with a rating at 27%.

The top ten approving states are:
?D.C.
?Connecticut
?Maryland
?Delaware
?New York
?Massachusetts
?Hawaii
?Vermont
?Illinois
?New Jersey

The ten least approving states are:
?Idaho
?Wyoming
?Utah
?Oklahoma
?West Virginia
?Arkansas
?Montana
?Kentucky
?North Dakota
?Alabama & Kansas [tied]

Obama's national half-year average approval rating is the same as the 2010 whole year average - 47%.

According to Gallup, presidents with approval ratings above 50% are usually re-elected. So it is important for President Obama to get as many states above the 50% mark before election day. Currently, a majority of the states are below 50%.

Gallup's poll was conducted from January to June of this year [2011] in all 50 states, and it used over 90,000 interviews with American adults. Gallup describes the margin of error for the individual state polls as plus or minus four percent.

Bullshit chart......

Federal Debt Inauguration Day 1980 was approx $930B.

By the time the supply siders got through with that in 1992.......approx $4.1T...... I'll help you.....just over +440%.:scared

By 2000.......$5.6T. Still an increase, but only around 25%.

By 2008.....$10.6T. Increase of 89%. Without the wars or any real momentum from the Prescription Drug Benefit costs.

Today $15.1 & counting......+70%. However that's with Bush's wars on the books along with stimulus & unemployment necessary to prevent a freaking disaster.

Reagan & Bush I are far & away the champs, so cool it with the Red/Blue shit. They are all whores.

You can do it by Debt/GDP & its no better. No matter how you slice it, the chart that anchors the start of this thread is misleading.

Have a day:0008

Whats you're point? Separate pool of money. Different conversation. Start a new thread.

Your post makes more sense if each line also has $$$ collected in SS tax for the same year. Have to look at annual cash flows. Its a bit of hocus pocus in the end, but technically, SS is a net creditor to the US Gov't to the tune of $2.6T, because every administration has "borrowed" from the SS pool for different reasons/amounts over the years & paid it back with T-bills.

Also, the debt chart I cited is in 2010 inflation-adjusted $$$. I doubt that, on the surface, your figures have been adjusted for inflation. My apologies if they were.

Added some to the earlier post in reply for clarity because I'm multitasking, but dying to get the rebuttal. Just trying to raise the bar back up around here.

Well, he at least tried to think a bit but what he posted might have been just as retarded as his you tube video's.
