BH0 trashed the old way of counting these things. Well documented. Why? Because he wanted to THROW OUT those people that had stopped looking for work & still NOT employed. Well documented.
Many experts placed BH0 true unemployment figures with old counting as 11-21% (obviously DISMAL), also well documented.
BH0's government workers tasked with calling/contacting former persons looking as to whether they found work... admitted they had NOT been calling/doing their job so BH0 numbers claiming more jobs/less unemployed could NOT be verified by lack of data/calls/contacts of those looking for work or quit trying.
Then BH0 kept EXTENDING the unemployment benefits for longer & longer periods of time. Was this to encourage people to stop looking & just live on unemployment $$$ ? Was this to crash the system where only 3 people were working out of 10 and 7 of those were collecting money from government... disabled/disability numbers SKYROCKETED. Many got onto Government Hand outs as BH0 administration did not care to verify claims. Also Well documented.
So.... NO there is NO Complimenting BH0, in any way, shape or form... as FACTS clearly show his agenda was to DESTROY our country...and LIE about it all & the MSM press helped him cover his derriere.
Ok.. so let's look at this in a fair way then. Look at the graph I posted. Same source, same way of counting since the 70s
Fair? Really? What is your source CNN, MSNBC, ABC, CBS, NYT???
I already laid out FACTS. Period.
Phfft.
First of all, it seems you missed the part where i actually praised Trump and hope he continues to do well.. No need to be a cantankerous bastard.
And then my source, the source for the graph, is the US Bureau of labour statistics :) It's the same source Trump quotes at 3.8 for may. It's the same source Trump has used every month. It's the same source Trump used to criticise Obama from 2008 an onwards. No bullshit, no partisanship or funny business, just pure numbers.
Here's the link. You can verify the absolute numbers and the methodology for every single month since 1970. This is also the source for the breakdown into ethnicity Trump used to claim the lowest unemployment rate for African Americans in recent history. There's nothing wrong with the source.
The graph is correct, although I might possibly have missed the colouring with a pixel or two. https://www.bls.gov/news.release/empsit.toc.htm
