News, discussion, buzz about unemployment from 13.09.12 Part 22

Think about that: stock prices up 100% since 2009. Unemployment still over 8% and probably more like 20%. All Fed actions made rich, richer.

I cant imagine what the unemployment %%% will be in 4-5 years when I graduate. #WhyEvenGoToCollege

Working out of @Starbucks for a while, like a real #unemployed person!

HATE been unemployed!!!

Unemployed? Want to talk about a new study that suggests an unorthodox way to get a job? LMK! Might ask you to join me on @HuffPostLive.

@BarackObama Who says unemployment doesn't have its advantages?

@ScottMatusow 8% unemployment rate is BS. 2% aren't even trying to find a job. Do you agree?

Unemployed Professors' super wizard has provided us with software via which we input data and magically conjure out references...

@BarackObama That's because when you are on Unemployment you don't pay as many taxes therefore bringing down that average.

Don't let anyone make u feel inferior about what u studied in school especially if they didn't study ur field. jobless idiot>

@crampell 3.9% will be all structural and frictional and there will be virtually no cyclical unemployment

@katybranson or they have .Take a look at the unemployment rate and the deficit and tell me how it compares o even when W was in office.

Since I am unemployed...I'm going to focus on my Rosetta Stone...learn me some languages!! Unuh naa guh can chat to me!

And we will keep doing it until we see jobless rate decline. Take that, GOP!

i feel so pathetic seeing everyone get hired for jobs &

Media will tell you how unemployment dropped .5% in August, but not how its because people have given up and stopped looking for jobs.

@JONATHANdunn93 well thanks for letting the whole Twitter World know im unemployed ..some kind of brother huh ?

Fed sees unemployment of 8%-8.2% in '12

I may be a jobless right now but that still dnt stop shit...that's why u posed to save when u do work for time like these

At points, it's as though Bernanke is talking directly to the jobless, and saying, I care.

@_matchewww lol no! Im unemployed sir! I gotta survive out here in these streets!!!

#Bernanke says unemployment in US remains a grave concern, should be of concern to every American. Calls pace of growth inadequate

@Fitzstock2004 What if the unemployment rate is bad tomorrow?

FED: JOBLESS END OF 2012 AT 8.5-8.2% UNCHANGED FROM JUNE #BLOOMBERGTV #BreakingNews

Fed doesn't see unemployment rate at 6% till 2015? sheesh.

Benanke suggests we should see 6% unemployment by Q4 2015 and inflation is going to stay below or at 2% during the same period. I LOLd

Ed Balls should have done his homework on Cambridge. Too many houses been built. Try Trumpington for one. Low unemployment. #bbcnews

Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke: looking for less than 6% unemployment and less than 2% for inflation

Fed sees unemployment of 6.7%-7.3% in '14

Bernanke speaking about terrible unemployment. Wouldn't it be great if #Obama created a busy friendly atmosphere? #tcot #teaparty #ocra

checking Horoscopes :) lol jobless

Got the job at Goodwill! No longer unemployed! #ThankGod #SoHappy

If you've been unemployed for over a year your opinion doesn't count

@JamieLeighWood haha couldn't agree anymore with ya, well I'm sure you will get another job soon rather be jobless than work with a snitch x

while this douchebag it's unemployed for about 1 year and all he does is staying at home the whole day watching tv

Unemployment stinks, but the last couple of weeks have been crazy, so it's nice to have a day where I can just chill and do nothing. #fb

US unemployment Stagnation reason for QE3, a whooping $40b every month till when ever...unemployment rate of 8.1% in Aug, Naija worse pass o

@MittRomney you need to focus on the president's failure to lead and the domestic policy issues that are keep unemployment up, focus on win!

I know I'm unemployed but times are not that hard! So @CraigyBellis no, it seems to be just you who's done that :P x

I now picture the unemployment office as a rapper in a club, making it rain. Doesn't seem to matter at all that one is fired for just cause.

@BarackObama My niece is an unemployed Science teach! She really wants to get back to work helping students! Please help!!!

@MikeBloomberg wanna know whats a national epidemic,Debt,Unemployment those are gonna kill this nation before obesity #Bloomberg #Obesity

Ben, some of us know the purchases aren't about unemployment, so much as keeping OTC derivatives from blowing up &

Omg I missed my unemployment phone call this morning I hope I still get that shyt lol I need dat extra 300$ to play with lol

Fed: Policy accommodation will remain in place even as recovery picks up, Modest pace of growth inadequate on jobless #CommodityTradeMantra

@GaltsGirl Hey remember when economic experts said we'd be down to 5.6% unemployment now? Good times...

The unemployed have it figured out.

Bernanke also taking on the low rates hurts savers argument - weak economies hurt savers, and mass unemployment hurts everyone.

#Bernanke: moderate pace of growth inadequate for jobless, closely monitor economic data, #Fed will purchase assets until economy improves

If NHL goes on lockdown. I'm gonna be jobless.. :(

@DennisDMZ Exactly and it is a big job killer. Everyone will be on Medicaid because they will be unemployed.

@seiu775 required to take classes that are non existent. Unemployment rate just jumped upwards in Washington state -- #seiu 775

The new normal: jobless rate will be above 5% for at least the next 3 years, Fed predicts (even with QE3).

Stock market rallies on unemployment, no access to credit, low interest rates to save, increase in US debt you thought women were crazy!

Breaking: New claims for unemployment benefits jumped to 382,000 last week, from an upwardly revised 367,000 the week before. @foxnews

#Bernanke asked if new purchases could go on for years, given that forecast is not for the unemployment rate to be acceptable for 4 yrs.

Right now I'd settle for a poop-scooping job. #unemployed #broke

Bernanke hopes that low interest rates will eventually help economy and reduce unemployment, while keeping inflation low.

Bernanke QE _infinity until job growth picks up, not until natural unemployment is reached.

#Fed Bernanke MBS purchases stop when economy gets growing enough to reduce unemployment rate

#Employment now considered FULL @ 6% unemployment?

Bernanke: The goal is to quicken the recovery, but we'll stop buying before we get back to unemployment

Another QE has diminishing returns, problem is structural unemployment - skills mismatch, not liquidity deficits.#bernanke @TheBubbleBubble

An unemployed court jester is nobody's fool.

@OrlaCraic life's graaand, still unemployed! have you started the jobby?x

@HeskeyStats: Heskey is still unemployed. If he didn't find a club what everyday job would Heskey have? Continue to promote Premier Inn?

#Bernanke: idea is to quicken the recovery, to help the #economy grow quickly enough to create new #jobs &

#Bernanke: #Fed analysis see' unemployment to be above 6% through end of 2015

“@crampell: Fed expects 7.6 to 7.9% unemployment next year” Maybe bc of major drops in the LFPR. People are just throwing in the towel

Just in- No major change in the Fed’s unemployment projection. ..2013 forecast is exactly the same as it was in June… 8.0%-8.2%.

New Bond Purchases...signs of a strong economy growth and reduce unemployment rates. Keep the public informed by educating us on new policy

Definition of pointless: Jobless people on Twitter updatin their status 2 thank God its da weekend.#wtf

Even when the unemployment rate begins to come down decisively, we're not going to rush to remove policy. We're going to give it time.

Criterion is new job/reduce unemployment rate.. I'll eat crow if we're not at 8% next year #QE3

@BarackObama - Then they can be added to the unemployed or underemployed because the lousy tenured teachers are still there doing nothing.

“@ItsWhyIHateYOU2 If you sit on your ass all day, but complain about being unemployed it's #WhyIHateYou”

#IfEngineersMadeMovies unemployment reduces

Which we are all liable for (tax), QE does keep unemployment down though. What price recovery? #Eggconomist

Ben Even when the unemployment rate begins to come down decisively, we're not going to rush to remove policy. We're going to give it time.

@VerifiedGlow @swtlovex @Glow see how jobless she is. So she would be waitin 4 d time to tick 2 dat date.dat woman is low upstairs!

Bernanke: even after the unemployment rate begins to move down more decisively, we're not going to tighten policy

Bernanke: Fed does not yet have specific target for unemployment

BERNANKE - FED WILL LOOK FOR SIGNS ECONOMY STRONG ENOUGH TO PROMOTE DECLINE IN UNEMPLOYMENT

@fayyexo revision in september?! lol no. no no no, whaaaaaat that sounds loads more fun that sixth form! well not the jobless bit :(

Bernanke on what conditions would end bond-buying: No set number, but stop prematurely -- even after unemployment drops more substantially

@PrimeExample716 it's called being unemployed

Bernanke: Fed wants to provide enough support to get economy to grow fast enough to get jobless rate down over time

So if unemployment goes down we can thank Bernanke the real POTUS

#Bernanke: We've seen not enough job growth to reduce the unemployment rate... what we need to see is more progress. #jobs #finance

MarketWatch: Fed: U.S. unemployment won't fall to 7% until 2014 - (@mpoppel)

@mattyglesias What exactly happens if inflation jumps very fast and unemployment lags? What can the Fed do besides stop the FOMC? #QE3

Bernanke: Policy approach is to ensure that we have enough support to have the economy grow and bring unemployment down over time

@DanPringle never too early

Celebrating my unemployment by spending stupid money at the vet. Cat's off his face on cat drugs so at least one of us is having a good time

@realDonaldTrump @BarackObama plan is to ignore the problem in front of him (Libya,Egypt,China OPEC unemployment) and attack @mittromney
