Per the Federal Government's own Numbers, Scott Walker has done a fine job as governor.

Bureau of Labor Statistics Data

Remember, Walker took office January 3rd, 2011.

Since Walker took office:

-The people in the labor force has stayed the same (labor force includes unemployed looking for work).
-The amount of people employed has grown.
-The amount of unemployed people has shrunk.
-The unemployment rate has decreased.

Per Temptress68's own favorite source, the federal bureau of labor statistics...When Scott Walker took office there were 2,833,068 jobs in Wisconsin - today there are 2,863,590 jobs. A net increase of 30,500 jobs and 9 straight months of job growth. Now Temptress68 can use outdated and unrevised numbers to distort, but that is garbage.

They ignore all of the updated numbers and use faulty past projections that have since been revised.

The Federal Bureau of Labor Statistics reveals with their updated info that Walker has had 9 straight months of job creations and employment numbers and unemployment rate numbers moving better than the national average.

DJBoutit,
Your statistics are nothing more than lies to vote out Walker so the Union can keep their monopoly in selling health insurance services above fair market value to school districts. Congratulations on being a tool of a monopoly.

Here are the official Federal Government numbers for your time frame that you chose.

Jobs in Wisconsin April 2011: 2,836,190

Jobs in Wisconsin April 2012: 2,863,590

Net Gain over the time period: +27,400

Bureau of Labor Statistics Data


P.S. The Federal Government says that Wisconsin is ahead of the national average in lowering the unemployment rate under Walker and ahead of the national average in job creation under Walker.

Whatever, it's a measly number for job creation, considering a bunch of similar sized states, gained just under 50,000 jobs.

Wait a minute. Your numbers are deliberate Democrat distortion numbers, that do not include the federal government's revised data if it makes it better for Wisconsin.

Obama still has a net loss of jobs.

Walker has a net increase of jobs.

Obama's unemployment rate is still above where he started.

Walker's unemployment rate is below where he started.

Walker's unemployment rate is improving BETTER than the national average.

Walker has 9 straight months of job creation.
