Job Numbers Disappointing Again

Posted by Train Dude on Sat Jul 7 01:41:50 2012

fiogf49gjkf0d
Only 80,000 new jobs created.
Unemployment is holding steady at 8.2%
Stocks down sharply on the news.
And o'bummer doesn't understand.
The private sector is not doing fine.



Is bing-bong writing the bullshit that he's reading? This president has not got a clue.

I read on another forum that Obama may be the first US President in history to leave office with fewer jobs existing than when he started.

You're all worked up.

I explained it to you all years ago.

Obama gives blacks a turn in the White House. In 2016 Dems will have to have another black man or a female or Hispanic as the candidate. They can never run a white male again.

Merit no longer matters. "Whose turn it is" is all that matters.

Skin color should not matter yet it's "sad" to you.

Honestly, I think it will decades before we have another white male president. THIW.

Not sure why you think we won't have another black president. Obama is not even 100% black. He's half white and not African-American.

A white man will not be President for a long time. Maybe never again.

I don't know how you could come to that conclusion. By the same token (no pun intended)Considering that the president is 1/2 white, we could also say that we may never see a white president again.

Well I guess everything is okay then. We can all rest easy. Is that what you are saying?

Those job loses at the end of 2008 were the reaction to the Obama presidency. Businesses reacted to his victory. The job market has not recovered and when Obama wins again, he'll spend billions more promising jobs(like he did last time) that will never materialize. 8% or higher unemployment is here to stay.

LOL, the job losses were due to money being tight during the last quarter of 2008, not because Obama was elected. In fact it was Obama looking presidential during September of 2008 (and McCain not) that moved voters toward him.

LOL @ "looking Presidential". When businesses realized he was going to win, cutting jobs was the reaction.

He'll win again, promise jobs by spending billions upon billions(saying he didn't spend enough the first time) and he'll leave office in 2016 with 9% unemployment.

He'll win again and the private sector and Congress will have t deal with it. Hopefully we'll get a Democratic Congress again. People should be fed up with how every jobs bill has been obstructed by the republicans while bridges get closed and roads crumble.

Wrong. They were the reaction to the bushcrash. Demand shriveled up, inventories sat. No need for employees until demand increases. That's why stimuluses are done. They provide jobs which serve to create demand. Once there's demand, the private sector (which won't hire unless they are beyond the need for more people) can provide for same. That's how GM came back.

Fact is, bush left the economy in worse shape than anyone is willing to admit. Had it not been for food programs and unemployment, we'd be looking at crisp new pictures of millions waiting on breadlines again.

80,000 is good.
You see, it's like a university, you have to lower the bar of expectations. Bush, a white president, had to have over a quarter million jobs. Naturally 80k would be positive.

But I now see how the numbers get revised. The quarter ended. Some probably wait a week to file their unemployment. Watch this

That's right. Also Romneycare required some major changes, which are reflected in the ACA, done by Gov Patrick in order to make the system functional as it is now. Now there's some cost containment, along with fairer and better distribution of subsidies, which was driving the cost of insurance to unaffordability for individual purchasers as Romney (who was blind to that detail) had it set up.
