...then new unemployment is supposed to be 6.7%. The problem is that the same report said that the number of jobs created in the same month was a 1/3 of what was expected. As Ann Coulter wrote, liberals can hold diametrically opposed ideas at the same time. However for us thinking conseratives we can look back to 1978 when the job participation was this low. If all those people who have dropped off the radar came back then unemployment would be 11.3%!
Some questions to think about;
If unemployment is going down, then why extend unemployment payouts?
If people coming back into the market would spike unemployment, would a jobs program be in the best interst of the democratic party?
Shouldn't reducing real unemployment be a more important thing that illegal immigration?
If you bring in 11 million more people won't it be harder to find a job?
