Quote:Yanno STUPID, if you were READ my post with the teeniest bit of comprehension, you;d have noticed that the "unemployment rate" which your article references is a BOGUS FIGURE, designed to plaster lipstick on a pig.
Yanno STINKY, if you were the tiniest bit interested in understanding what I actually posted you'd find out where I got my numbers ...
And as the article that YOU posted goes on to say ...
Quote:Which means that employment is not so hot in Indiana.
Even as most out-of-work Indiana residents are finding job opportunities, though, wage growth has remained sluggish in Indiana.
It doesn't matter "where" you got that info from ... whether you get them from a paper in Indiana or Washington DC, bad metrics are bad metrics.
But hey! LETS'S FOCUS ON RUSSIA!

BECAUSE, as I posted before, you can work for one hour that month and still be counted as "employed".
"Having a job" is NOT "all that counts", if that job only pays you $100/ week and comes without benefits. I lived thru that, I have a very close relative who's struggling with that (and to whom I regularly send "care packages"), and a lot of other people on the board are dealing with that situation right now. And you would know about it too, if you ever had to face the reality of being underemployed, Mr. 0.01%.
Sheesh, you sound as if income doesn't matter! Talk about being disconnected from reality,
But, by all means, YOU focus on Russia. Apparently you don't have anything more important to think about.

I have a job now. Compared to my last one, it's actually pretty good. I've learned to accept that this is probably my new life. Since I don't need much to survive, I can make do and actually save for a new car.
My take home pay will be around $400-$500, every two weeks. There are no health benefits, there is no vacation. I used to work 12 hour shifts and make that in 2 to 3 nights.
When I was laid off in 2009, I was making nearly $60k a year. I had 5 weeks vacation, health insurance, profit sharing, yearly company stock options, $2.5k a year shift differential for overnight work.
I'm actually at a company that should stick around for a while and seems to actually have room for advancement. I will likely never make what I used to make, but it's possible I might one day be able to get back up to $40k a year with some of those benefits back. I will have to work a hell of a lot harder for that money though, and I will have to manage employees, which is something I never did before.
Sure.... I got a job. I'm helping raise the employment numbers. But my job is paying roughly $45-$50k a year less than I used to make when you factor in all of the lost benefits on top of compensation.
Do Right, Be Right. :)

I find it funny that a Democrat is arguing against me about employment numbers, especially with Trump as president. WTF is going on?

OMG...someone said JOB and 6ix automatically thinks they MUST be talking about him, right?
Doesn't have a clue it had nothing to do with him. Just has to talk about himself in any capacity

Who The F*ck works for an hour a month??? Talk about manipulating data/facts to prove a slanted agenda. You're such a habitual "fudger" of reality that you don't even know you're doing it - it's become a reflex for you.
Here's some more slant:Quote:

$100 a week?????? What job would that be? A 40 hour job? a 1 hour job? Who would work a 40 hour job that only paid $100?? Please explain that pile of STINKY BS.Quote:

Serious question: How would you know what I've lived through? I expect an answer. Not answering will show you lie like Trump. Answering will show you make negative ass-umptions (lies) because that's the only way you can hope to make your lame ass points.Quote:

Ummmm, hon, did you not notice that YOUR comrade Kiki started this thread - did you see the title? "Let's focus on Russia!" Can you make yourself look any more idiotic? I don't think so!
==============================

Jack does that all the time. Especially to SECOND. He gets pissed because SECOND tries to move on. He expects a response so what SECOND posts confuses and upsets him. His thinking is fussy, and that's being generous.
