You're seeing intelligent people who understand the entire federal government is corrupt and produces propaganda just like the former USSR - everything is a lie.
If the numbers were revised down, would that have been a lie too?
If we are adding more jobs, why are the numbers of people leaving the workforce at record highs? Before anyone says that Breitbart is a partisan site, there is a link to the Bureau of Labor Statistics press release in the article.
Its amazing to me how these partisan one-sided hacks in this forum continue to MOVE THE GOAL POST and have selective AMNESIA.
I am highly critical of this administration but at least I am objective. Anytime bad numbers (such as low employment participation rate, food stamp participation, high gas prices) come out, you Repubs/Conservatives (whatever you want to call yourself) criticize Obama to no end.
BUT as soon as good numbers come out (low unemployment, hiring, low gas prices) all of a sudden everyone is lying and the feds are manipulating numbers. LOL cmon.
You all are masters at moving the goal post. FIRST Obama was going to destroy the economy, destroy America. We would never recover from the Great recession because of Obama's policies. Thats what you all consistently said back in 2008-2010
But as soon as America does recover, you all are now saying oh wait the economy was so bad it could only go up anyways. LOL what!
The bottom line is things are far from perfect. But they have been improving over the last few years. Having the highest number of jobs created since 1999 is nothing to sniff at or ignore.
You partisan hacks kill me with bad news means Obama is terrible and good news also means Obama is terrible! LOL!
Funny, isn't it, how they ALWAYS believe those numbers and then turn around and accuse the OP and others of having confirmation bias when it comes to the unemployment figures.
If we are adding more jobs, why are the numbers of people leaving the workforce at record highs? Before anyone says that Breitbart is a partisan site, there is a link to the Bureau of Labor Statistics press release in the article.
We need wage growth. Without wage growth we remain mired in the afterglow of recession.
Despite the tick downward this month, wages as a whole are up 1.7% from the year before.

Breitbart, now there's a propaganda-free publication!
Baby-boomers, that famously massive demographic, started turning 65 in 2011. Many of them are retiring, which lowers the LFPR. This is a worldwide trend that was anticipated years before the Great Recession.
