    I corrected myself and said you were not lying, you were just too dumb to understand, as the rest of your post shows yet again. Try and keep up.

    And I love the 'its the same calc as in 2006 (where it was still artificially low but didn't have the percentages of people on disability or hiding in school because they couldn't find jobs as there are currently) so it must be the same as in 1988. Brilliant.

    Lots of economic studies out there showing that age demographics are a minor player in the falling labor participation rate:

    The recovery has been crappy, but you should be proud of yourself for distracting a thread on the $400 million cash ransom payment being used by Iran to fund its military/terrorist organization and turning it into yet another example of your ignorance, this time on economic issues...

    If they have to count that you worked just an hour or two in a week that you are therefor employed you know the books are cooked.

    That article has some fake "real unemployment" which uses a combination of labor participation rate. This is lame because it totally ignores societal changes. So Carter must be remembered as an economic marvel because labor force participation went up during his tenure.

    Then it talks about consumer confidence being down, which is true. But why is that?

    You are taking one number and focusing on it to prove your point. And you are wrong.

    With the "societal changes" being a large group exiting the workforce via disability, staying in school, etc. etc. That was the previous article. And if you want to brag on Carter's crappy economy forcing women into the workforce (men dropped under him) more power to you. Or are you now saying Obama's forcing women to stay home now?

    God you give morons a bad name.

    Holy shit. That's the point. You claim the economy is shitty now based on labor participation going down. But it went up when Carter was president, but you can his economy shitty too.

    What I'm saying is you are a hypocrite, you just can't see it and you only response is to say I'm dumb.

    Millions more people on welfare, food stamps and every other welfare program we have in Obama's time. Obviously unemployment is low.
