Non Farm Was Negative - They Added Another 215k

Frightening. That translates to real, negative job growth in every sector.

Government add was ~411K. Birth/Death add was 215K. That's 626K jobs.

The number came in at 431K. That means the real economy lost 195K jobs (626 - 431). Unbelievable.
 
If you actually bother to scroll to the bottom, you see that total month/month change for the month, not seasonally adjusted (none of these numbers are on this page) was 1090. So, 1090-215 = 865. Even taking out the census workers, that's a net add of around 400k, before the seasonal adjustment kicks in.
Yep, we're well & truly f*cked: none of you can either read or add & subtract.
What a pathetic bunch.
