Agree.

Knew you couldn't bear to read...your attention span issues are growing worse with age. Your angry still works fine though.

Waaaa WaaaaaWaaaaa 1ke says he hates to be treated like he treats others, waaaa waaaa. Arrogant ah.

You can't stand that someone dislikes with what you write, what you believe, what you probably believe, where you live, who you vote for, how you think. You get all worked up and out of contro, cursing and carrying on. You're probably an ugly old bag-face, too. That's why people get slapped. But, no, you are a gunner. Locked and loaded in case of a crime.

Hope you get banned for your filth. Again

At least his are accurate.

And, Seepy the Tongue-tied said, "Me, too!"

waaaaaaaaa, waaaaaaaaaaaa 1ke whines like a little girl.

You cant be serious?

What practical effect does that have on the unemployed?
From the BLS report this week.

Unemployment rates:
WHITES: 6.8%...
BLACKS: 13.8%...
HISPANICS: 9.6%...
TEENAGERS: 25.1%...

"In February, the number of long-term unemployed (those jobless for 27 weeks
or more) was about unchanged at 4.8 million. These individuals accounted for
40.2 percent of the unemployed. (See table A-12.)"

"The employment-population ratio held at 58.6 percent in February. The civilian
labor force participation rate, at 63.5 percent, changed little. (See table A-1.)"
"The number of persons employed part time for economic reasons, at 8.0 million,
was essentially unchanged in February. These individuals were working part
time because their hours had been cut back or because they were unable to
find a full-time job. (See table A-8.)"

296,000 Americans Drop Out of Labor Force in February.
"According to the report, there were a total of 89.3 million people not in the labor force, up from 89 million in January." From the BLS report.

GREAT job President Downgrade. This is the new ObamaNation Normal.

What do you think of those numbers Jack Hays, aka Steve?

Sanchez, that's not an especially good argument to try and make today considering the market is hitting an all-time high due to great job numbers coming out.
http://www.cnbc.com/id/100537056

Maybe next month? Wouldn't bet money on it considering we're up to, what, 36 straight months of job growth and unemployment's at a four year low? Maybe the sequester will help you out, though. You go ahead and have your fingers crossed for America's failure, buddy.

+186K and an unemployment rate of 7.9%

89,304,000 NOT WORKING

Seepy said, "Duh?"

CP...I provided a link. You don't need to (incorrectly) guess what the numbers were.

Here are the numbers and CP is correct.

Good try Willie Nelson. The market is up. Ask most financial advisors - why is it up? Because due to the gubmit artificially keeping interest rates low through QE (printing and journal entry of debt), the attempt is to prop up the market - as there is no where else to go. What happens when QE ends OR a triggering event - balloon pops because structurally, the country is in trouble with too many unemployable workers who cannot read or speak properly and cannot work a full or part time job due to vices. The Wall Street cons are working hard to bring the middle class folks in to fleece them one more time - but this time, these folks are not buying it. A balanced portfolio is always the way to go, but structually, we are in trouble. Eventually, when gas hits 5.00 per gallon here - maybe this summer, it will blow.
At 17 trillion in debt - a 1% increase in the interest we pay on that debt would be devastating.

Sanchez, the jobs report was undeniably good news. Deal with it. I know you root for the rest of us to have as pathetic a life as you, but it's just not going to happen. Sorry.

Didn't take you long to be an glassbowl jagoff did it. You have shown over and over you cannot debate like a grown civil man. your anger exudes form your pores.

Huh? You're literally ignoring the fact the economy is growing stronger every month and actively rooting against the success of our country. Yet I'm the one who's angry and a "glassbowl"? Yeah, okay. Enjoy your weekend, kiddo.

jagoff says "I know you root for the rest of us to have as pathetic a life as you, but it's just not going to happen. Sorry."

Yes you are angry and incapable of civility in your vile comments.

Joe casually throws out numbers without considering what they mean - 10,000 Baby Boomers reach the age of 65 every day, now and for the next 19 years. Granted, not all of them will retire on that birthday, but do the math and that's why there are fewer people in the work force.

Maybe Joe can coax them out of retirement to keep his taxes down...

http://www.pewresearch.org/daily-number/baby-boomers-retire/

HGH, care to take into account the increasing population and those who are getting to the age ot enter the workforce?
Or do you just throw out numbers without considering what they mean?

Joe, people reach working age every day - just like always - and the increasing population are mostly still too young to work. Give them 10 years or so.

All things considered, I think I'm on firm ground, But you keep throwing them up...

...and we'll keep watching you blow lunch.

Good that Sanchez brought forward the numbers. By way of example, let's see how easy a 10% supposed unemployment rate is really a 18.2% unemployment rate? Simple example: if 1 out of 10 people are out of work that is 10%; if 1 additional other person who dropped out of the workforce is included in total people able to work then instead of 10 total people, it is 11 total people and the true number would have to be 2 people out of work out of 11 total people or 18.2% unemployed out of the entire possible set. THis is why what is NOT included in the calculated numbers is CRITICAL to a true representation. Apparently, the US has tied a 32 year low in the number of people participating in the work force. So, the unemployment rate may not have improved at all but be significantly worse.

Record 47,791,996 Americans on food stamps...

...and other just refuse to see the glass as half full. THe market is up and unemployment is down. If nothing else, those are positive events that are much better than the Market being down and unemployment being up.
I am just wondering when you give your numbers if you take in to account the ratios and not the pure numbers.

Amen Joe.

et tu FiFA ;-)

Let's see if there is any hope for you at all.

As an example, the Nazis sent innocent Jews to the death camps, starved them, gassed them, and used some for goulish medical experiments. In our prosecution of the war we killed hundreds of thousands of civilians in Germany durning our bombing raids that were focused on depleting their manufacturing base.

Are these action morally equivilant?

I think that there has been a long tradition of bracketing off murders that are committed during "just wars" and murders that are committed in civil society.

Pacifists argue that there is no such thing as a just war.

So what is the test?

The March 9-10 raids that killed 100,000 was the intentional bombing of civilians.

You attempt now to justify the intentional killing of civilians by saying that they did it too?

The fire bombings were directed at industry. Factories and factory workers. Anything else is a bunch of revisionist history crap. Did they know civilians would die, yes, in wars civilians always die.

That's a big difference from sending millions to the gas chambers. I would think even you could agree with that, but perhaps my faith is misplaced.

How many? By one report, in Pakistan alone, six times more than Bush did in his entire 8 year term.

Steve, alert code pink, march on Washington and demand change.......... Yeah, I thought not. You guys don't care a bit unless there is political gain.

He has conducted killings with much more "decency"? You are quite the brainwashed little tool, aren't you?

The business of America is imperialist intervention and killing, B.O. Plenty.

Everybody in America wakes up in the morning and deals with the lesser of the two evils from the workplace to the polling place.

Having you back on Patch is like still another trip the dentist's chair to get the same tooth filled still again.

Hurry up and get banned.

So, just as I said. A hospice-dwelling, brainwashed little tool.

How was rehab? Did you go the the nice one on the banks of the gorgeous Susquehanna? Too bad the insurance only could pay for the short course.

Even though he is killing even more more people. Dang, that's devotion.

What are you muttering about now, Stanker Steve? Do you really think anyone has any interest whatsoever in the sick activities you practice down in Mom's basement?

Sequester belongs to Obummer. It was his idea.

You're not B.O. However, if you vote yea, you become the part-owner. Are you sure it was your President's idea? I mean, asserting your President's political acuity has not been your habit.

It's a beautiful day out, Ike. Open the windows and let some fresh air into your fetid lair, and maybe you'll be around for the continuation of the Bush dynasty.

Your assumptions are quite amusing, Ike.

At any rate, use caution when you shamble over to close the windows tonight. I suspect that one foot is already underground.

Kong OHHHH, soon bye bye.

Lays down flat as Kansas? Must be talking about the flagpole, Ike. I bet its been flat as Kansas for decades. LMAO

I have an arsenal of uncomfortable facts I hope to find appropriate places to drop. this is only the beginning.
