He's saved us all! And remember that the man keeps his word stating that after the stimulus was passed the unemployment rate would not exceed 8.0%. That my friends, is proactive leadership. Of course, the fact that the labor paticipation rate is steadily dropping is irrevelant or that the unemployed are moving onto the disability rolls. All this is inconsequential because we are the preeminent superpower in the world.

Where are the numbers for the people whose unemployment maxed out, or just stopped looking? I can't seem to find them.

You can find them by looking at the Labor Force Participation numbers. You need to do a little math to get the specific number you are asking for but it shouldn't be too complicated.

The U.S. is literally the Soviet Union with better food distribution and luxury cars. Do not challenge the numbers of the state!

I'm reminded of the song Hook in Mouth:


A slouch with fallen arches, purging truths into great lies
A little man with a big eraser, changing history
Procedures that he's programmed to, all he hears and sees
Altering the facts and figures, events and every issue
Make a person disappear, and no one will ever miss you

Rewrites every story, every poem that ever was
Eliminates incompetence, and those who break the laws
Follow the instructions of the New Way's Evil Book of Rules
Replacing rights with wrongs, the files and records in the schools

So where did these formerly hidden 91,000 public sector jobs created in July and August come from?

Even Indecision Forever (Comedy Central) has trouble with that:

One clue the jobs report is fake: the highest gains were in the jobs-report-faker industry.

Corrupt like a statistician

I find it amusing that everyone is so skeptical of modern macroeconomic statistics that the Obama administration is preemptively defending itself against suspicions of statistical shenanigans:


The U.S. unemployment rate fell to 7.8 percent last month, dropping below 8 percent for the first time in nearly four years and giving President Barack Obama a potential boost with the election a month away. The rate declined from 8.1 percent because the number of people who said they were employed soared by 873,000 — an encouraging sign for an economy that's been struggling to create enough jobs.

Labor Secretary Hilda Solis was asked on CNBC about suspicions that the Obama administration might have skewed the jobs numbers to aid Obama's re-election prospects. "I'm insulted when I hear that because we have a very professional civil service," Solis said. "I have the highest regard for our professionals that do the calculations at the (Bureau of Labor Statistics). They are trained economists."

Ms Soldis would have been more convincing had she feigned being insulted and insisted that the professional for whom she has the highest regard are trained circus clowns. As I showed in RGD, the margin of reported error between one report and its subsequent revision is often larger than the difference between economic growth and contraction. In the case of the BLS, the story being pushed is that the "number of unemployed Americans is now 12.1 million, the fewest since January 2009."

What they're leaving out is that "unemployed" is a technical term that does not mean "not working", as the Employment-Population Ratio has declined from 60.6 to 58.7 during that time. This means at least 5.9 million more Americans are not working than were not working in January 2009.
