WOW! 430K Jobs Created in May

Post by Newt »

Last week, one of the millions of workers hired by Census 2010 to parade around the country counting Americans blew the whistle on some statistical tricks.

The worker, Naomi Cohn, told The Post that she was hired and fired a number of times by Census Bureau. Each time she was hired back, it seems, Census was able to report the creation of a new job to the Labor Department.

Well 431,000 jobs and only 41,000 private sector jobs. I'm sure we are all happen with positive jobs creation in the private sector but how many people actually think about how many private sector jobs it takes to to collect enough tax revanue to pay for government jobs If you think about , it will take about (5) $50,000 private sector jobs to pay for (1) $50,000 government job. These job numbers reflect more than 9 government jobs to every private sector job.

This administration continues to dig a financial hole, with NO end in sight.

Personally I believe the numbers are artificial and NO real jobs are being created and unemployment is still rising, more people are giving up and falling through the cracks.

You are right Rabbithoundjb,

When your unemployement benefits cease you drop off the unemployement roll so you are no longer counted. This also does not include the retired early due to job cuts at companies, or forced / offered early retirement in order to cut costs. The worst part is like mentioned before and is happening all over the US in Government positions people are being fired/layed off and then offered a new position calling this a created job and one more off the unemployement line, which in fact is not a true statement.

I don't know how long our country will stand by and blindly believe the BS we are being shoveled on a daily basis. I guess there is still a lot of folks out there that enjoy the $hit sandwich that they are fed on a regular basis cause there sure is a lot of them being made....
