News, discussion, buzz about unemployment from 07.09.12 Part 42

August jobless rate for people 25+ with bachelor's degree: 4.1% . High school grads: 8.8% . Less than a h.s. diploma: 12% @alyssabraunn_

At least when #MittRomney is talking about the Fed, economy, Wall St, unemployment, he KNOWS what he's talking about unlike #NObama

Officially #unemployed. Last shift at the YorkshireBank.

#Miller Time is not for people on #foodstamps, #welfare and #unemployment.

@TurkiAlHugail @bmbatel @noufns unemployment has not been a defeating factor for presidential election throughout the history of USA

@CharlieRoper_ oh my bad!!! I thought it said unemployed haha

Don't let libs fool you-- the unemployment rate fell from 8.3 to 8.1% not because more ppl found work, but because more ppl stopped looking

pretty much if you're majoring in anything that has to do with art in college, youre gonna be unemployed when you get out of college

@AyoAdi Labine won an award last February, and in her speech said if anyone is looking for writers, she's unemployed.

“@billhobbs: 11.2%: Unemployment rate if labor force participation rate was the same as when Obama took office. @JimPethokoukis” #DoTheMath

Being unemployed fucking SUCKS, someone hire meeeeee

And now I am officially unemployed.

8.1% Unemployment Does NOT MEAN ANYTHING, When 88,000,000 ppl OUT OF WORK-FORCE! 4 ppl drop out 4ever 1 reflected n UNEMPLOYMENT NUMBERS!

Let me understand we have Americans out of work but not counted as unemployed because they can't find work &

niggaz think being jobless is cool

CNN: not trying to be funny, but the unemployment rate is being effected by prisoners and drug dealers.

B.o.l I doubt I last I'll probably b fired ! But then I can get unemployment! =) sounds like plan!!!

@chunkymark @Bill_Hicks_RIP Get people used to being wasteful &

The Hunger Games 2012: Unemployed Americans who have exhausted their unemployment checks and are living in soon-to-be foreclosed homes.

@calienteyfria :) I'm still unemployed, but I'll find out for sure soon. Either way I'm glad to have the first interview over :)

@kyutie101 she must be jobless....

Just helped to reduce the unemployment rate by hiring a Very Special lady!

The unemployment rate went down because there are a historically low amount of people in the work force so even worse news

@BretBaier thank U 4 giving Mitt Romney the opportunity to speak on the unemployment number Hope he'll elaborate some more on his plans

@leders17 @johnnieea @deano_cee Seriously? I'm unemployed! #CheersDeano

@JamieGanzini just become unemployed like me.. Then you'll never have this problem**

@arushmeyer that's because the unemployed have stopped looking for jobs

@matthewgavint this made me think off Wednesday afternoon lol 3 hours. I'm not unemployed :)

I call every Democrat to hire new employees...we need to put unemployment rate below 7.5 %... We have to help our President get reelected!

@ABC7News Uh...no president's ever been reelected with unemployment #s this high? Ever hear of FDR? Anyone at WJLA have a clue?

Then to celebrate the thousands unemployed and homeless he gets pissed and leaves his daughter in the pub then talks about singleparenthomes

Texas has the 3rd lowest unemployment rate. One of the many reasons why it's the best state ever.

@AAbuDahesh @bmbatel @noufns true. However in a declining economy, unemployment will play a major role in the presidential elections.

God I can not wait until November 6th so I can place my vote against Obama and his jacked up unemployment plan.

Now, I'm no expert, but I fail to see how the unemployment rate can drop 0.2% with barely any new hires. Especially in an election season.

@chinmay92 @bhatnagar_dhruv Ah, that's just JOBLESS! :D :P

MittRomney: If last night was the party, this morning is the hangover. 43 straight months of unemployment above 8%. America deserves better.

@GarahSowen @larkinrose2 well 8.1% unemployment is still pretty bad. Not hitler, no. But not all that great

Saw a 300+ lb woman wearing a t-shirt that read Unemployed Full Time #taxdollarsatwork

@purpleberiie @jemima_osunde jobless gurl

@coreyaltman I can also pull dates and use a metric which has no fundamental reasoning behind its level to fit an agenda 9.5% unemployment??

Now I'm so unemployed gurllll

@DatBellamy nothing besides triple our deficit an increase unemployment to 8.3%..

The way you say my name makes me feel like I'm that nigga though I'm still unemployed

Pres. Obama does not deserve 4 more years w/ 43 straight months of unemployment above 8%. #sctweets #tcot

@bamasgot14 of course lower unemployment would be better still. But the fact that unemployment not low doesn't mean no positive impact

UNcongressionalrepublican behaviordissesEMPLOYMENT #unemployment #DNC2012

my xbox's disc tray will only open with the faceplate off now. Unemployment just won't be the same without him

@Tha_Truth16 lol yu cant get unemployment if yu get fired . yur job gotta shut down or something

Being in a relationship is a full time job . Don't apply if you're not ready. Stay unemployed like me

Key jobless indicator hits lowest point since 1981-rate of employment. 1 in the workforce &

@TurkiAlHugail @aabudahesh @bmbatel plus, so far Romney is putting lots of weight on unemployment confronting Obama's overall policies

Keep forgetting I'm unemployed now, sad times

Ive worked 10hrs a day this whole week....this is crazy...but hey its better than being unemployed

@toddkincannon Dem screams for unemployment benefits extensions have fallen by the wayside in Election year. Reason - Keeps up UE Numbers.

Reagan saw unemployment at 10.8% and got it down below 8% in 14 months. Obama saw it at 7.8% and it hasn't gone below 8 in four years. #tcot

@KayStamps Wait He's Not Goin' Withh You? &

The unemployment numbers would be a hell of a lot lower if people like mitt romney didn't ship our jobs out! What's China's their UI #s? #p2

For the next two days, daddy will be unemployed. ****** Yayyy! :)

“@Dan_Mariano59: @evanwilliamz autobiography of the american black man” now all I gotta do is file for unemployment #TooSoon?

Jobs report was a good thing for Democrats if the fact unemployment dropped due to people giving up on looking for a job.

@Scode83 @Ell131 and for a country it's not a problem, taking the UK as example, stronger economy, lower percentage jobless people

@yo_yo_Lina sounds good! I think I have to wait until I get my unemployment too ******

@mclanea And millions more have fallen off the radar by being unemployed too long.

If the job participation was at the same level as in 2009 the Unemployment rate would be 11.2%. Are you really better off than 4 years ago?

Feeling bad all my friends are unemployed. But don't worry Caldera, Hale, Davidoff, Vac and especially, Grandy. I have a job for you!

@HussainK09: Finally left work gna miss the ppl i worked with welcome to the shitty life of unemployment..

@BretBaier #Obama has been in office for 4 yrs. Why doesn't any1 ask him why he has failed to lower the unemployment rate?

When the only way you lower the unemployment rate is have 400k drop out of workforce, yes Mr President you are a failure

People are so dumb. Actually no. Unemployment is lower than in 2008. Proven fact. Go tell mommy and daddy to stop watching FOX news

Yes. I actually have a better job than I did four years ago (after being unemployed and under employed for 2 years). #AreYouBetterOff

“@adore_kiera: Now I'm so unemployed gurllll” you got canned?

“@dhwinston: BLS began reporting monthly unemployment Jan 48. 82 times over 8%, 43 under @BarackObama more than previous 11 Pres combined

Over 23 percent of Greeks are unemployed. Sheesh. And I thought 8.3 percent was awful...

Yes am sure. Personally, I can't even down with a chic that jobless, let alone just any wet poke hole lol.

@Llauger1964 Yep you're right but as this economy gets worse more are going to go postal. 8.1 unemployment bullshit.Closer to 20%

Amazing how girls nowadays are dropping education and aiming to be 16 and Pregnant! What a way to begin your future,on benefits and jobless.

@ThatBoyBob hey.. I'm unemployed. I'll get the 2nd. You can have a tap water.

It's being widely reported today that the #unemployment rate has fallen due to people who stopped looking for #jobs. How does this work?

@alexdgn What would happen to politicians, if we had free markets? They'd find out what it is like to be unemployed.

Did you know?: Unemployment rate drops to 8.1% from 8.3% b/c of discouraged workers leaving the labor force. #failingagenda

@AkwardAdam In order to file unemployment you must be looking for a job. The reason the number fell is because more people stopped looking.

@KirstyMillerrr booooooooooo I want Guinness. I work at miss Selfridge. That's the same as being unemployed

A % of the unemployment rate--people who DON'T want to work &
