Fucking Huffington Post: Jobs report BAD

[bigdarryl]

The main point is we are not LOOSING!!!! jobs it's not great but we are still adding jobs as apposed to loosing 700,000 a month http://www.huffingtonpost.com/

1. This is the MAIN reason why the job hiring is weak in this Country

2. Why can't people here ..

... ACCEPT REALITY?

IT IS BAD.

At this rate we're probably not even keeping up with the new workers entering the workforce.

This number MISSED EXPECTATIONS and EXPECTATIONS were already miniscule.

3. Do you honestly think that matters to the GOP'ers?

The worse they make it look, the better their chances to take back the WH and or Senate.

4. No matter what it was going to be, they were going to spin it negative.

If it went up, it would be "devastating. A blow to the administration. A blow to Obama. A blow to the Democrats". If it went down a few %, it would be "devastating because it didn't drop from 8.2% to 5% in one month". And if it stayed the same, it would be "devastating because the economy is stagnant and should have dropped to 5% in one month or there will be a double dip".

They have to do this because they have nothing else left to use to prop up their rich boy Rmoney.

9. Geez, and I thought I was cynical.

You get it.

5. Construction jobs will pickup by the release of the Infrastructure Bill that will be signed today

By the President

6. 'Denial' ain't a river in Egypt.

"... it's not great"???

This is not a good jobs report, let alone 'great' ... you got that right.

But to castigate Huffington Post (or any other media outlet -- AP is the source for HP report) for telling the truth, well, that is just denial of the gravity of the employment situation.

'Treading water' while 12 million plus are out of work and millions more are underemployed is 'bad'.

Now, you can certainly blame Repuglican obstructionism in Congress for these dismal numbers, but there is no getting around that we are still in a recession as far as most working Americans are concerned.

7. sorry, but 70,000 jobs is bad--it shows what we've had a weak recovery, and...

yes, the GOP can take a lot of the blame for contributing to this--but the fact is that many will forget that and blame the administration.

8. How many of these just job, jobs are not living wage jobs?

It doesn't really matter how many jobs there are in this country, if you need 2 or 3 of them just to survive.
An experienced 50 something person should not be competing with teenagers working for gas money. That is what we have in this country. All jobs are not equal.


P.S. you misspelled 'LOOSING!!!!' It is 'LOOSING!!1!'
