Maybe it’s a transitory situation. Let’s wait for the talking points to be issued before getting all crazy. 

Talking points: it's a far right wing deep fake! There's plenty of jobs! Bring in allllllll the illegals and print more dollars!!!

Bidenomics.

 

I Just Learned the REAL Unemployment Rate, and It Sucks

Stephen Green

There are lies, damned lies, and government statistics — and maybe none is more damnable than the official unemployment rate which is half the actual rate, according to Rasmussen. Worse, the number of Americans who are neither retired nor employed is more than four times higher than July's official rate of 4.3%.

 

Rasmussen surveyed nearly 9,000 American adults and found that in July the percentage of Americans who are unemployed and looking for work — this is the number that the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) should report each month — was 8.4%. The BLS reported a rosy 4.3% unemployment rate last month, up from June's equally imaginary 4.1%.

 

From there, things only get worse. Because under Bidenomics, of course, they do.

 

One in four adult Americans is retired, which is nice for them. Fifteen percent say they're entrepreneurs (that can be anything from driving an Uber to launching a Silicon Valley startup), and just under 30% are employed by a private company. 

 

Nearly one in 10 work for the government at one level or another. Those workers are supported entirely by tax dollars without producing any material wealth. Every government employee involved in regulation makes it harder for the rest of us to do so.

 

If you've been keeping track of these numbers in your head, you might notice they don't add up to anything close to 100%. About three percent of adults surveyed answered "not sure" about their employment situation, the kind of answer that I assume involves smoking weed. The remaining 9.7% said they were unemployed but not looking — i.e., "Not in Workforce."

 

That means the percentage of Americans who could be working and perhaps would really like to be working but either can't find work or have given up finding work is 18.1%. That's more than four times the official unemployment rate.

 

It also means that the 45% of Americans who do work in the private sector are, in one way or another, supporting the 55% who don't, can't, or won't work.

 

So if you felt tired getting up for work on Monday morning, that might be why.

45% work and 55% rely on the minority 45% for their existence.

 

Let's say there's a fictitious village of 100 people where 45 work and 55 do not work. This is representative of the American population and work force.

 

The majority votes for the village government which promises the 55 citizens free stuff which is paid for by taxes on the 45 citizens. They call it Democracy, majority rule. But if you're 1 of the 45 that work what would you do? You might not want to call it democracy, you might call it servitude, you wouldn't call it freedom, and you might decide to leave. In fact, you might organize a movement which convinces the other 44 people that work to leave with you. So the 45 workers have had enough and are ready to leave and form their own productive collective of working people. One without the overhead of supporting the non-productive population. But the 55 non-workers find out and try to force them to stay and continue to produce the goods and services they require. I think that's called socialist democracy.

They could be those noble housewives we keep hearing about!

You know, the ones that the feminist Marxist are trying to force out of the home so we can send their children to the Local Trans Marxist Indoctrination Center euphemistically called the "Public School."

Stupid. Stupid. Stupid article.

Hoax.  And, it wouldn’t contain a cartoon, so you probably wouldn’t follow it, anyhow. 

 

 

So, your Goldman Sachs statement is just your opinion. . . . . . . . . . . .NO ONE here is surprised.

Hoax.  It’s the opinion of Goldman Sachs analysts.  It’s also all over the internet. Not in cartoon form yet, to be fair to you, but surely that isn’t far away.  I choose joy, freedom, and prosperity.  You should too.  Enjoy!

Yeah, it's called having a REAL economy....not one built on Fiscal and Immigatory stimulus which are both BS (Biden version of Immigration that is)
