Fed thinks unemployment will remain at 7% + till 2014, at least they are honest and realistic?

#Fed is targeting Unemployment reduction and not inflation, Bernanke is trying very hard to say that without quite saying it.

Unemployment argument is only used as a cover so people don't see the $$ are going to the banks.

What excuse do unemployed people have for not educating their kids? Time is clearly not a reason

@KordyBauss @Andiblaz @Nedu64 Eh eh! She adjective/noun wey una dey use? The guy is jobless #EoD

Hey Ben, we NEED more BANKER unemployment to FIX the unemployment problem on Main Street.

US producer prices soar 1.7% in August, vs.July's 0.3%, and expectations of 1.2%. Initial jobless claims 382K vs.expected (370K).

Bernanke of the Fed admits that they don't have the tools to effect unemployment on their own. Good presser. Able to answer all questions

I'm not quite sure why but all arts students have macbooks. That will be very useful when they are unemployed or serving large fries #truth

“@ezraklein: Bernanke: We don't have tools that are strong enough to solve the unemployment problem.” Today's truth bomb.

I can not believe he just said for people to go buy homes! Did he. It hear himself read off Unemployment #'s #Bernanke #Fed

@felixsalmon in Macro, we care more about job creation/destruction flows than the unemployment rate

Hilsenrath: What's definition of better labor market? No set no. in mind, but last 6 months isn't it. Looking for unemployment coming down.

Who's currently unemployed????

I guess being jobless has its perks. My classic movies education is growing exponentially via #TurnerClassicMovie channel.

Greece unemployment is at 24% @BarackObama wants a government set up in the #USA just like Greece. #soundgood ? Not to me

@catswithbats If I wasn't unemployed and living off of student loans at the moment, I would be all over it.

@NabeelN: @BurgerrB @Jobless_Enginer happy happy birthday

@BarackObama just go to ny-thousands of jobless teachers including my mom and I (chemistry &

@stevetitus Haha and unemployment hasn't gone down a single percentage point over the last 4 years. Not a single point.

Bernanke has done good in this tough times. And rightly indicated indirectly that Capitol Hill needs to play its role now on unemployment.

@rachaellooi HAHAHA dont look at me i only know how to count up to eight! :p I kinda miss college rach.. #jobless

@ezraklein ie. the Fed can’t solve the small percentage of structural unemployment/skills attrition caused by prev 5 years of Fed inaction?

@merrickaa 7 pages and im only starting the unemployed :( fuck you lloyd george

@ellencarmichael And at least in the short term, monetary policy can reduce unemployment.

Welcome to our society everyone.... and people harp on our president for the unemployment rate. t.co/arZGfvuP

To reduce overall unemployment in America - increase banker unemployment.

@KC_EDM high unemployment is a huge danger to the economy and inflation is low

#Unemployment will never come down with a #sequestration due to go up.

Bernanke: Don't have a specific number in mind for target jobless rate, but what we've had in the last few months isn't it.

@mcneil1688 the unemployed bums need new flat screens tvs mate so we need to pay for it lol

New claims for unemployment benefits jumped to 382,000 last week, from an upwardly revised 367,000 the week before. // FIRE THE LIAR IN NOV!

COLLEGE: just the same as being unemployed but your parents are proud of you.

#BestQuotes DrSmith: You're all going to be unemployed!

Bernanke: No specific economic targets because we want a general improvement in economic conditions, not just unemployment.

Bernanke still working on Wall Streets problem, seems like high street and unemployment just have to pray for crumbs..Just like Enda &

@tedcruz: Jobless claims up &

Bernanke: What we’ve seen the last six months isn’t it. We’re looking for unemployment coming down in a sustained way.

@Jobless_Enginer Happy Birthday Bhai. God Bless You :)

@Jobless_Enginer Happy Birthday :)

@Hunitproof but u can get stamps! ESP if you unemployed!!

#Bernanke says #Fed can make meaningful contribution, yet doesn’t have tools “strong enough” to solve unemployment problem.

Bernanke: No specific indicator to benchmark against. Jobless rate showing improvement due to participation drop for example.

The unemployment rate is calculated by the number of people collecting unemployment, not the number of people that are jobless....So...

Happy Bday Asshole, may you have a big one... I mean big day :D @Jobless_Enginer 

Bernanke: when the unemployment rate falls because the labor force shrinks, that's not necessarily a sign of improvement. GOOD

Stagflation: 'A rare defect in an economy caused by stupid people, where there will be a high rate of inflation along side high unemployment

... the unemployment rate come down, but that's not the only indicator. #finance #jobs #economy

Why no specific target? Problem is we're looking for general improvement in labor market. Unemployment rate not best no.

Need to get motivated though. Nothing will motivate me. Not even the fear of being a bust, homeless, unemployed dropout.

I have a single number that captures when the economy's in good shape: 4.5 percent unemployment.

Ben Bernanke on Targets looking for general improvements in labor market jobs, unemployment. Signs of continue improvements we will do more

People dropping out of job market makes unemployment rate less useful as a guide.

I like this answer from Bernanke. There's no target number on employment, because the unemployment rate doesn't tell you everything.

#bernanke - fed cannot solve unemployment problems on its own

When the unemployment rate goes up or down, you have to realize that people used all their unemployment, but are still jobless.

Real labor participation will probably put unemployment% at 9.4.

@JohnG405 unemployed people???

? I'm a concert pianist. That's a pretentious way of saying I'm unemployed at the moment.

I see why you are an unemployed humorist. @MisterSilverman

@PragCapitalist I have never seen the guy so openly make it clear his policies can't fix unemployment and they can only hope stock mkts can

Why are the democrats not demanding Ben Bernanke explain why he is just now taking steps to lower unemployment and not sooner.

The idiotic idea that the Fed can solve unemployment was never anything more than an excuse to let Obama's crappy policies slide- total B.S.

What a waste of time... All because I didn't answer the phone enough times. #jobless #disappointed

@InMurfreesboro great non answer. Btw, the market has already soared under Obama. What is hurting him is unemployment.

So buying MBS is going to reduce the unemployment rate...we'll see. It hasn't worked yet and how much money has been spent?

BERNANKE - FED WANTS TO SEE MORE JOBS, LOWER UNEMPLOYMENT, SIGNS THE ECONOMIC IMPROVEMENT CAN BE SUSTAINED

how do we improve the labor market and lower unemployment, monetary policy yes but with conjunction with fiscal policy

#bernanke: #fed does not have tools strong enough to solve #unemployment.

#Bernanke: We want to keep just the right number of people unemployed.

I'm pretty sure I could do filling out job applications as a career now. #brokecollegekid #unemployed

$$ Bernankeeconomy sucks,unemployment too high,prior QE programs didnt help - so we launch another QE coz it'll b different this time

@SimbaJoseph: Jobless kenyans should also strike.since teachers ,lectures and doctors are on strike. Its when they can be given those jobs

@tekphreak Kewl. Stogie was saying that she drove you off CL with her superior logic. ROFL. I guess she has no life as an unemployed loser.

@marcfaberblog US unemployment wont go down 'significantly' therefore money printing will be in place all long time, BUY GOLD thx to Ben

Daily, we get new reports of unemployment or underemployment. I prayed for months and months. God saw fit to give my dad a job. #amazing

@terranovajoe And how exactly does that bring the Unemployment rate down? This is going to end very badly for the lower half of USA.

@KordyBauss @IH3AMA @Nedu64 ...blame the jobless photographer.
