still showing your ignorance and stupidity

Professional and business services added the most positions, with 81,000, while retail rose 35,000. Food and beverage contributed 20,000, due mostly to what the BLS described as "employment disruptions at a grocery store chain in New England," an apparent reference to the Market Basket impasse in the Boston area. Health care grew by 23,000, while construction added 16,000.

The job creation was tilted heavily towards full-time positions, which surged by 671,000. Part-time jobs actually fell by 384,000.

And the Labor participation rate now the lowest since 1978---can't argue with facts and data

20% of American workers have lost their jobs over the last 5 years.

The "recovery" has a fair bit of smoke and mirrors associated with it.

Conservatives favorite whine Labor participation rate, Labor participation rate, Labor participation rate DID THE US GAIN A QUARTER OF A MILLION JOBS IN ONE MONTH OR NOT?

Labor participation fell, and average income fell... AGAIN!!

[FaninAma]

I am surprised it took Sooner8th so long to post this. Isn't it interesting that the month before every election the unemployment rate drops several tenths of a percent? Of course a politican who cut his political teeth in the Chicago political machine would never condone politicizing functions of the executive branch. LOL.

A new poll indicates that 76% of the country feels they are worse off or no better off economically than they were in 2008. Translation: they're not buying the bull**** Obama and Sooner8th are peddling.

Actually older people are staying in the labor force longer out of economic necessity. It is younger workers who are dropping out. But by all means, continue on you progressive talking points.

On the other side are those such as senior fellow and director of Economics21 at the Manhattan Institute, Diana Furchtgott-Roth who, in a Jan. 14 piece for RealcCearMarkets.com noted that “since 2000 the labor force participation rates of workers 55 and over have been rising steadily, and the labor force participation rates of workers between 16 and 54 have been declining.”

Took me so long? It only came out this morning you dumbass.

You are just ****ing stupid aren't you? The administration cooking the numbers right before an election. Remind me what happened in '12? OH JOB CREATION NUMBER WAS REVISED UP!!



And the income gap continues to increase at the fastest rate in American history.

The only people are buying is the bullsh!t the right is pushing - economy is worse off than when obama took office, no jobs are being created, labor participation rates, blah blah blah.

I am afraid the retirement fund my 77 year old mother has is not going to last. She is in good health and I am thankful for that. But she understandably has everything in conservative investment vehicles.....CDs, bonds. The low interest rate is killing her investments. My Dad died 4 years ago unexpectedly. I am pretty sure if he were alive he would have gone back to work because he would never accept charity from his kids.

[Sooner in Tampa]

I wish you would stop quoting the king of the dvmb****s. It is so much better when we don't his stupid bvll****. He is too stupid to even acknowledge the people pointing out that the number of 'older' workers is continuing to rise. I guess it's just because they enjoy working so much, they have no desire to retire...because everything is coming up daisies out of Oblamers azz.

We are all living in high cotton...don't ya know?

Sorry, but I keep watching him for the complete meltdown which I know is coming. His juvenile ranting doesn't bother me....in fact it is a great opportunity for other progressives on the board to do some self examination and ask themselves if they are as silly and intransient in their attitudes and interactions as Sooner8th is.

i am still slightly intrigued by the possibility that Sooner8th is a troll ID created by one of the board's more conservative posters.....like Sic'em.

self examination and ask themselves if they are as silly and intransient in their attitudes and interactions as Sooner8th is? Is this suppose to be a joke? I show you how jobs have been adding all you can talk about is job participation, job participation. Just regurgitating rightwingnut talking points. Job participation has nothing to do with job creation.

Pop quiz here dumbass, when did the job participation start to fall from it's peak?

Almost positive its KC

[rock on sooner]

I hesitate to get in this, since it makes my head hurt, but...(and the
only caps I'll use are to start sentences.)

55 straight months of positive job growth...longest streak since record
keeping started...

Trade deficit shrank...

Childhood poverty is lowest since 1966...

Income is actually flat, not lower....(fairness here, minimum wage
actually buys 20% less than just a few short years ago)

Gubment is smaller...

Many arguments back and forth about why unemployment is down to 5.9%..
...fewer workers continuing to look...many younger folks going back to school
for retraining/better opportunities...boomers feeling that it is safer to retire now...

Now, something I haven't seen cussed/discussed is the several hundred thousand
soldiers/sailors that will be hitting the job market as we try to get out of all the
wars...that is, the impending military downsizing...

Okay, I have taken two and will call the doc in the morning, if my headache persists....

You guys go out and read some ignorant rightwingnut website and run with it, never bothering to check it out and see what the reality is.

Job participation rates and Household inflation adjusted income each peaked in...............................you guessed it - 2000! It started to go down in Dubya's first year and has been dropping ever since, but of course as usual wasn't a big deal until conservatives were looking to show how poorly of a job obama was doing so you could feel better about yourselves supporting and voting for dumbass dubya.

Try again.

Have you noticed even the things you complain about in Obama's economy started to decline under bush? How could it possibly be all of obama's fault, could it be our demographics are changing?

Job participation has nothing to do with job creation. Bush still lost private sector jobs and obama is growing private sector jobs.

Job participation has nothing to do with job creation. Bush still lost private sector jobs and obama is growing private sector jobs.----Obama is not creating anything the private sector is creating jobs---If anything Barack makes it harder to grow employment-----------Work force participation is part of the calculation for unemployment----If the rate was the same now as when Barack took over the unemployment rate would be over 10%--------How could anyone believe that Barack's policies are helping job growth?

Do you really, truly believe without the Work force participation being part of the calculation for unemployment the rate would be same now as when Barack took over - 10%?

[Since71ASooner4Life]

Sorry, government doesn't create jobs - it destroys them. Especially when it's policies are anti business.

The only thing Obama is good at is appointing incompetents like himself. That happens when your first priority is skin color, gender, sexual orientation, ethnicity, and everything else other than real qualification.

Data is data - the trick is in correctly identifying cause and effect relationships, rather than just declaring what is opinion to be factual correlation

What data is faked? If it is faked now, it was faked under bush and everyother president. How do you explain the 6 MILLION jobs that have been created under obama? Is that number faked too?

"There are three kinds of lies: lies, damned lies, and statistics." - Benjamin Disraeli


Let's talk about the mark of a real leader. A man is only as good as his word. How does Barack Obama stack up? Just a trail of broken promises.



“We will double our exports over the next five years.” (2010 State of the Union address)

“We will close the detention camp in Guantanamo Bay, the location of so many of the worst constitutional abuses in recent years.”

"Will eliminate all income taxation of seniors making less than $50,000 per year. This will eliminate taxes for 7 million seniors -- saving them an average of $1,400 a year-- and will also mean that 27 million seniors will not need to file an income tax return at all."

"I’m pledging to cut the deficit by half by the end of my first term in office." "I will be held accountable" "If I don't have this done in three years, then there's going to be a one-term proposition."

In the first five years of George W. Bush’s presidency, the rate fell 1.2 percentage points. (At the time, Democrats might have tried to claim that under the “Bush economy” the labor participation rate was “the worst in two decades.”) Five years into Obama’s presidency, the rate has fallen 2.7 percentage points.

So clearly the decline has been faster under Obama, though again, demographic factors have played an important role.

The Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago in 2012 concluded that just over half of the post-1999 decline in the participation rate comes from the retirement of the baby boomers. Critically, the research showed that the problem is only going to get worse in the rest of the decade, with retirements accounting for two-thirds of the decline of participation rate by 2020. In other words, the rate will keep declining, no matter how well the economy does.

Barclays economists, meanwhile, say that just 15 percent of the drop in the labor force stems from people who want a job and are of prime working age (25-54). “We view the possibility of a large and sudden return of previously discouraged job seekers to the labor force as remote,” they wrote.

Workforce Labor Participation Rate has fallen precipitously under Zero b/c his voters thot he was going to pay their rent, gas for car, new kitchen, etc. Plenty of video of people saying this stuff.

It started falling under bush.

The "percentage points" at which people are dropping out of the labor force has more than doubled under Zero. But,,,he did get Bin Laden, eighth!

Do you understand it's a trend? Only 15% of people are not participating are not looking for jobs. The rest are retired or getting more school.

Funny how it is that you want to blame obama for the labor force participation that has been dropping since 2000, but he does not get credit for the 6 million jobs he has created.

I understand "trend'", do YOU understand "precipitously"? The trend was happening but NOT precipitously until Zero became POTUS. Why I said ppl were expecting paid rent, car gas, new kitchens. He led his sheep to the desert looking for a waterfall.

Who gets credit for job creation? Obama did not create a dayum thing cept a tuffer environment for business to work under. Government/POTUS cannot help Capitalism/job creation until he steps away.

I do however blame him for Workforce Labor Participation Rate cause half of America (liprogdems) were expecting a free ride when he was elected.

Ok look and ye shall find, Bureau of Labor Statistics,

Labor Force Statistics from the Current Population Survey,

Series Id: LNU05026645
Not Seasonally Adjusted
Series title: (Unadj) Not in Labor Force, Searched For Work and Available, Discouraged Reasons For Not Currently Looking
Labor force status: Not in labor force
Type of data: Number in thousands
Age: 16 years and over
Job desires/not in labor force: Want a job now
Reasons not in labor force: Discouragement over job prospects (Persons who believe no job is available.)

January 2009 734,000
September 2014 698,000

HHUUUMMMMM seems the number of people who are not looking for jobs because of Discouragement over job prospects has actually FELL. HUH, stop listening to rightwingnuts from the heritage foundation and find some data for yourself.

BTW - just for fun and giggles when dubya took office it was 301,000, just sayin'

1.2 < 2.7 that is assertion.

1.2 < 2.7 that is assertion.

Your assertion is that ALL of the participation rate is due to discouraged not looking for work. It is not true. PERIOD

8th, they've been fuggin the figures a long time now, to the point anyone with half a brain knows the labor numbers are not true, they exclude a lot of people and define work very narrowly. Not a true reflection of what's happening, but then you know that...

What lie and damned lies? The way UE has been calculated hasn't changed since 1995. Right at 6 MILLION PRIVATE SECTOR jobs created by obama since he took office. Numbers don't lie.
