That doesnt change the fact that no one is working 1 hour a week, or the fact that your argument should be aimed at the Republican who is continuing to claim the economy was saved by them while you are claiming it is still falling apart under them. but we all know right wingers follow Reagan's 11th commandment.
On the first part, you should check the facts yourself before speaking as an authority on the subject.

On the second part, you state opinion and make poor attempt to discredit based on tired "right-winger" insult. This is commonly done when one can't make logical argument based on fact. i.e. Saying anything to defend Obama, even when the facts say otherwise.

The oft-cited American unemployment rate, U3, doesn't count those who've given up.

"Pay is sluggish. Many part-timers can't find full-time work. And a diminished share of Americans either have a job or are looking for one.

"Yet in the face of global and demographic shifts, this may be what a nearly healthy U.S. job market now looks like."

_"Job market's new normal: Smaller workforce, sluggish pay"_
http://abcnews.go.com/Business/wireS...ish-pay-322209

The American public, victimized by Obama's Marxist administration, understands this.

How hard is it to dump billions of magic money dollars into an economy, keep interest rates nil, increase social welfare 30% and (causing another drug epidemic proportionally on taxpayers dime)? Not really too difficult to be a panderer. What goes up in this case of the bubble will need to come down to face reality and it won't be purty.
Just a form of trickle down economics here but not a sustainable one.

It means when you increase welfare much of that money goes to drug addicts to support their habits. It also helps make more addicts. The correlation is clear and it is not the first time. The ' heroin epidemic' now is sub-caused by the huge increase in free money. Get it? I understand cause and effect. Do you?

No I don't get it

For 99 percent of TANF recipients, the purchasing power of TANF benefits is below 1996 levels, after adjusting for inflation. TANF Cash Benefits Continued To Lose Value in 2013 | Center on Budget and Policy Priorities

How many welfare recipients use drugs? In Florida 2.7% tested positive, in Arizona out of 87,000 tested one was positive.
Drug testing welfare applicants nets little

Who is using heroin? As heroin use has moved from predominantly lower-income urban locations to middle-class suburbs and rural communities. White individuals made up approximately 90 percent of the study participants who began using heroin in the last decade.
Who Uses Heroin? Not Who You Might Think

You would do well to do some research rather than just making crap up.

You have an immature understanding of the big picture and cause and effect. Your rhetoric and short sighted internet articles do not mean a thing to reality and truth. Most of the drug epidemics happen after increases in liberal welfare. Immigration is also a co-factor.

Schooling and the internet are not guarantees to becoming intelligent. Keep trying though, you may get objective truth and reality someday. It comes from life experience as well.
