Quote from achilles28:
That encapsulates the general sentiment of most idiot Boomers on this thread.
Most people here assume the worst is behind us. It's not. Ipads and electronic gadgets mean jackshit when all the brick and mortar jobs are gone. That's what these fucking toolbags have done to us. 9% unemployment is nothing. The deficit is the stimulus. Once we hit the wall like Greece and Portugal, the bandaid gets ripped off and the legs get kicked out from underneath this phony economy. All this was avoidable had you dipshits actually thought things through and payed your own way, instead of forcing America's next generation to subsidize your existence. You idiots won't get your precious Social Security or MedicareEnjoy....
I still find it amazing that the 9% unemployment number has any semblance of credibility when you consider the labor force participation rate chart. Last I checked it was near 30 year lows. At the very least it cuts thru all the bullshit of people falling off the radar after x number of years. In this economy, as we've seen, people are unemployed for record durations, hence these unemployment stats are pure fiction.
