Are new unemployment numbers King Obama’s home cooking? Take a look; you decide
07/03/2009
Kevin “Coach” Collins
Unemployment is 9.5%? I just don’t believe it.
While the unemployment rate for June was “only” 9.5% and up “only” .1, this number sounds fishy. Are they cooked?
Here’s the numbers, see what you think.
An additional 467,000 American jobs were lost, 104,000 more than the “experts” predicted.
When those who have given up looking are added (a media favorite statistic when Bush was president) the REAL number is a staggering 16.5%!
At least 14,700,000 are unemployed.
The average work week fell to 33 hours, the lowest in FORTY FIVE YEARS, meaning huge numbers of workers are UNDER EMPLOYED another statistic from the Bush years.
We never heard of “under employed” until the Bush tax cuts started adding more jobs than Democrat controlled media could ignore.
Consider these job losses by industry.
Professions and business services 118,000.
Construction: 79,000 near DOUBLING May’s losses.
Retailers: 21,000 jobs AND 17,600 in May.
Financial services lost 27,000 ON TOP OF 30,000 in May.
Even the government CUT 52,000 up from 42,000 in May.
In both May AND June the Leisure industry lost 18,000.
Professional and business services slashed 118,000 jobs, MORE THAN DOUBLE the 48,000 lost in May.
One of the few industries adding jobs: education and health services, which added 34,000 positions last month and 47,000 in May.
Losses by group
Adult men rate is 10.0%.
Adult women rate is 7.6%.
Teenage unemployment is 24%.
Black unemployment is 14.7%, a .2% IMPROVEMENT
Hispanic unemployment is 12.2 a .5% IMPROVEMENT
Apparently all of the 81,000 new education jobs (do you believe education is ADDING jobs? School systems are laying-off all over) and health services jobs MUST have gone to Blacks and Hispanics.
When Bush was president snarky Leftists called any new jobs “hamburger flippers.” Let’s just call these new jobs “bedpan flippers” because they most likely are. This number doesn’t reflect a growth in the economy but a growth in hospital union membership.
A bubble waiting to explode
The longer the media waits to start telling the truth the worse it will be for them when the truth comes out. The truth is coming out already and people are beginning to ask questions. The media lied last year when they convinced the 52% drooling halfwit crowd we were in the worst economy since the Great Depression.
Americans are beginning to get the facts and they don’t like what they see.
Now that things are twice as bad the lap dog media won’t be able to keep this lie up. The truth will crash into the Lefts web of lies with a swift a terrible thud.
Write or phone your Representative. Demand the truth or we’ll never get the truth.
Keep asking questions: keep demanding answers or we’ll never get any.
Get educated and get involved. If you are planning to sit and watch the events that control your life, plan on sitting and watching the Democrats destroying America.
