News, discussion, buzz about unemployment from 07.09.12 Part 32

My friend just said the Republicans are paying people to get off of unemployment to make the Pres look bad. He's had 2 beers already.

@thesavvy If so many people were retiring, wouldn't at some of those lead to a new job opening for someone unemployed?

@spencergv inflation isn't as high as you think. Unemployment went down to 8.1% this last month, and spending is actually decreasing.

The liberal spin is on trying to spin why the unemployment rate dropped. It dropped because people are discouraged. Nice try

So if you dont answer emails at work, people quit sending them to you! What could possibly be the downside to that? #8%unemployment

@JenniferAbbey15 @lawilliams13 haha me too I need more sleep #lieintomorrow and the next day and the next and the next haha #jobless

@acworthey @rolldat63 good or bad there will always be unemployment. I know a lot of people that are unemployed because they want to pick

#OneOfTheReasons the unemployment rate is so high is cus alot of people are to prideful to accept minimum wage

Unemployment Falls to 8.1 Percent - ABC News

@IsmaeilFadel ahaahaha ,, yes you can say that :D I'M UNEMPLOYED ,, i feel useless :D can i burn myself D:

wow these jobless headlines #toldyouso

@MittRomney @BarackObama Why not point out the big lie? If 100% have stoppped looking, the published unemployment rate is ZERO !!

Yup, the weather definitely had something to do with it! #jobless #annoyed #needsajob

@MaryamDee I thought so at first but later on I realised the resemblance.. Stare at the picture for some time when you're jobless! Lol

Most ppl i know = unemployed

Obama-Biden record: Unemployment up, poverty up, food stamps up, gas price up, national deficit up, family income down, home value down #fb

We have to give Obama his unemployment papers!!!!

How confusing is this statement: Unemployment Falls to 8.1 Percent #POTUS

@JimAngleFox If unemployment rate drops when huge numbers leave workforce, if everyone stopped looking for a job would rate drop to zero?

Have 2 weeks to find a new job or I'm gunna be unemployed, danger!!

@TheHestercution @mearn It's okay, he's just gonna be on loan to unemployment. He'll come back to be the #24's crew chief.

We just can't seem to get job growth going! Unemployment % went down a tad because unemployed gave up looking. We need jobs not rhetoric!

The fact that the media reported on both the unemployment number and the labor force number is so telling.

A double negative. More people are less unemployed! Sounds horrible.

Even tho I'm jobless my daddy got me best. I don't need or want for anything :)

If this real n*gga business, then you n*ggas unemployed

Oh, wait. I forgot- I'm the bum now, ha ha! With my unemployed self.

When the #ROBOTS replace MOST of the workers HOW are we going to DISTRIBUTE the Wealth? #Labor #Unemployment #Attitudes to Work #Fairness

Isn't it ironic that all the pundits braying about the unemployment figures haven't done an honest day's work in their life?

@sheulibose @ZoomTV @mbhandarkar268 people are so jealous on one's success but have nothing to follow except being ignorant... jobless!

@KW_71 I'm unemployed now, I've got to keep occupied somehow.

@RyyKarsch hes going to work...? I thought he was unemployed.

i cant stand when they say the unemployment is 23 million , when its been proven that its 12.8 million #thatsabigdifference

Unemployment Falls to 8.1 Percent in America that is shit #ByeObama

Ive always had my suspicions, but now i know it to be true. Springsteen is better when you're unemployed.

@Min_Reyes @chartrandm The real unemployment rate rose in Canada while Harper gave out patronage jobs to every single failed Tory #cdnpoli

@RobLeCheminant that is not true it was just reported yesterday that it went up to 8.3 and unemployment is only counted as those looking.

Labor Department says the unemployment rate slipped from 8.3% to 8.1% largely because people gave up looking for work...

#truth your not a #model if your unemployed and take #selfpics ....

.@Sean_UnPC Leaving labor force, not looking for a job/not counted in unemployment rate (requires searching for work &

I feel like I should clarify that it's cool if you're on unemployment or mentally unable to work. But sometimes I feel like people take...

So unemployment fell from 8.3% to 8.1%. Something is better than nothing.

#business Payrolls in U.S. Rose 96000 in August, Jobless Rate Falls - Bloomberg #news

Obama's new jobs plan is people give up looking thus in lower the % unemployment rate--much easier to lower denominator than inc numerator

Another crap sandwich>

Feels wierd now being jobless, so much more free time! #loser

Last weekend as an unemployed nigga let's get fucked up

@freddoso @nycsouthpaw Actually it is thinking long-term. Biggest LT-threat is lack of skills and social unrest due to high unemployment.

@edin_eats yeah ur unemployed - I'm unfollowing

'TGIF' don't make no sense to a jobless Man...

@Couscous_Monsta Sorry whats SLT? My dad is an Second language English teacher in a Uni and my sis is unemployed. You looking to work?

If you don't your business could fold and you and other employees are now jobless. Fire away. @pambesteder

People complain about the low wage jobs being created but aren't most unemployed not highly educated. Thus makes sense? $$

@Bikkerbabe69 girl i still want that purse but i refuse to pay 295..hell im unemployed and a under paid housewife. ..lol that's 2 much

Handed in my notice at work today... In a months time I will be unemployed. In two months I'll be 18, happy and earning more #lifestooshort

Dry cleaner offering free services to those who are unemployed and need clothes for an interview, that's the shit I like #FaithInHumanity

Also .2% of those under unemployment are now no longer on it, which means unemployment went down....in the worst type of way.

#dnc2012 if the 23M jobless pooled there money to buy a powerball ticket and won the $100M jackpot they would each get less than $5

#OneOfTheReasons the unemployment rate is so high is cus the government doesnt want ex-cons to get a job after they are released

What was that promise that you made, unemployment is still above 8% #FailedDoorsLyrics

@stephenjmann I don't think I will be there for a while..when does unemployment begin?

Chaka Fattah says 10,000 baby boomer a day are retiring...where are the jobs they are leaving??? that should be reducing unemployment.

so when obama took office unemployment was over 10 percent....now its at 8 percent. ijs

So yeah, as of today, i'm no longer on the unemployment line. HELL YEAH!!!!!!!!

@jesseclee44 Obama said his stimulus would keep unemployment below 8%. We don't believe in the new 'plan' after that bomb.

#OneOfTheReasons the unemployment rate is so high is cus alot of people are to prideful too accept minimum wage

Is Officially unemployed (Y) #grim

Why do unemployed people be so excited for the weekend?

@TheArmoTrader Many unemployed have degrees, more than one in some instances.

@stevendboon actually I found out a month ago that there is money 4 unemployment its just the republicans r making it harder to receive it.

Take it from THIS BUSINESS OWNER, Obama's failed policies have decreased my workforce, and 4 more years will put the rest on unemployment.

I'm that nigga and I'm still unemployed

Unemployment is very high in rural America--many of them have little incentive to work.

I was just hired. No longer unemployed!

Unemployment above 8% for the 43rd month in a row. #thanksobama #HN101B

@LDNCalling Larry Herring on Twitter: “If Obama can get everyone out the the workforce, the unemployment rate will be 0%!!”

Unemployment continues. Economic doldrums. Only things up are prices and taxes. Obummer/LizInjun Warren #ohsen #pasen #njsen #mdsen #IL

If the labour participation rate was the same as when Obama took office the unemployment rate would be 11.2%. #scary #areyoubetteroff

Although unemployment rate dropped to 8.1 percent, that's because another 368,000 Americans dropped out of labor force

Does anyone wanna give me a job that will allow me to go to AC on weeknights like that old job I used to have called unemployment?

@Beat_Reaper lol am juss jobless!!

@TheManOfSeal A soon-to-be unemployed scout.

US unemployment rate drops to 8.1% from 8.3% due to the lowest participation rate in over 30 years as 368,000 drop out of the labour force

look what at are doing to legal citizens with good backgrounds, are costing me my life for real... i should never be unemployed so long.

@Jddean12 he had the lowest unemployment rate... so i think he pimped alotta .... *oes... lol

@discoandhaze - I was joking. Any reasonable person would consider the unemployment rate ludicrous if they knew they didn't consider 89mm

So glad that the unemployment numbers went down. Too bad it was only because 300,00 were so damned depressed they had to give up.

It's really too bad about Digital Domain. As a graduating student, it's hard to see my industries flooded with unemployment. Good luck, all.

43 consecutive months of unemployment over 8%. That's all that I ever think of.

.@tsiligiris Interesting debate over whether US unemployment is structural (affects non-inflationary rate of long-run unemployment) or not

96k jobs created for July but unemployment is still above 8% as it has been for 42 months. #ObamaIsntWorking #tcot #Obama2012 #Obamanomics

@Intipappa you are jobless hala

@PaulRyanVP people are exhausting the 99 weeks max unemployment benefits. Still looking for work but not counted. Close to 11% real unemploy

I got a lot riding on this 2012 thing. #dropout #jobless

@jarrodmichael entered office with a 9.2% unemployment rate. It's down to 8.3%. Romney's proudest moment is firing people #Fritson2024
