I am fine if you are trolling but as a logic problem I think it would be cool if you agreed with that part. Lots of folks are on here with English as a second language so I can understand it is not clear to a native speaker let alone a non native speaker. |
If Hillary has more votes than trump why feel so special...

"In addition, students, retirees, the disabled, homemakers, and the voluntarily idle are not counted in the labor force" These people aren't included because they a. Can't (disabled) b. Already have. (retired) c. Choose not to.. (homemaker) D. Other obligations (school) |

It is not a conspiracy. The states saw a way to push the chronic unemployed onto the Fed side of the ledger. It was done openly as far as those concerned. AFDC which is Aid for dependent children has not changed since 1984. A mother with 2 children receives $532/month in my county. The federal government picks up the balance with food stamps (I forget what it is called) and housing aid ( section 8, section 42 etc). Now now SSI/disability at $778/month or so for those qualified. PS the Feds fought back and it is much harder to get SSI now. |

You conservatives are always the same.. you whine, moan and expect everyone else to pay the price for you.. This is why every Republican run state sucks is typically shit and when they have control of the govt they fuck shit up, too many talkers and not enough doers. |

Rochard lives in a pretty well off are of CA. He was boasting about the low crime rate recently. Where do you live? Forbes Welcome There are 3 unemployed people for every job opening, Obama adviser says | PolitiFact This will give you a clearer view of the future and today. Look at where the growth of jobs are, the level of pay and the skills and training required. Occupations with the most job growth Just looking at the numbers is blinkering your view. |

EXACTLY! So the retired people are not in the labor force. They are in the Total Population. 10 people over 16 - This our total population. 2 are retired. So they don't count in the labor force. 10-2=8. The labor force has 8. (8/10)*100 Labor Force Participation Rate = 80% . You can see how if lots of folks retire, it effects our final answer. |

10 - 2 - 2 = 6 (6/10)*100 = 60% Labor force participation rate. |

2012 population was 318 with 9 million on SSI/welfare for 2.8%. That is higher by 10% so I am not sure if that is the recession at that time or? Un employment was much higher. That might effect it or we have a long term higher trend going on. It is still super low as far as overall population. |

Retirees, housewives, students, etc, aren't counted in the labor force. But they are included in the participation rate. The participation rate includes EVERYONE OVER THE AGE OF SIXTEEN PERIOD. And once again, this entire discussion is silly and has nothing to do with the economy or Obama. The decline started in 2000, as the baby boomer generation got older started to retire. And again, to kill your argument.... The unemployment rate was cut in half during Obama. The labor participation rate would be going up as the economy improves. |

American's aren't unemployed at all. We have a 5% unemployment rate. We have a low unemployment rate, and the cost of goods are low. However, imagine a world where all of the products we buy nearly double in price. Apple looked into making the iPHone in the United States and discovered the cost of the iPhone would double. Less sales means less profit and less sales means less jobs. And that's not only at Apple - the phone companies would need less people because they don't sell any many phones, and less people working at the mall to sell iPhone related products like phone cases, etc. Unemployment would go up, as would the cost of living - both would be harmful to the general economy. Trump, the man who wants to do this, buys EVERYTHING from China. His ties are made in China, the sheets and dressers in his hotels are made in China; His fucking hats are made in China. If the cost of everything he buys doubles, either his profit margin is reduced or he charges a lot more. |
Low skilled labor sucks. Robotics does most of that work today in the USA. But don't despair; Trump is deporting lots of illegals that are chopping lettuce, plucking chicken, cleaning toilets ... you can have their shitty jobs at low wages. There may be some jobs in construction opening up -- that is dirty and dangerous work -- I know I was a building contractor ;0) However, the undocumented workers had the lowest paid jobs from the what I saw -- mostly scabs in small residential construction. |

The thing you looking for is "underemployed". Yes, this is a worry. Labor laws are making bad incentives. Obamacare added to it. I think based on the participation rate getting killed, it will work its way out. We need more workers not less. |

Buying online means products are cheaper and costs the jobs of people working in shops and malls. Let's assume you're right and we keep exporting jobs to the Third World. Fewer jobs means fewer customers, fewer sales, shops and malls close putting more people out of work. As for people out of work. How many of those in work are on wages so low they can't afford an iPhoneand looking at the long term what happens when they vote Socialists because they're the only people who care? An alternative is you pay more in taxes so they can buy iPhones to keep people at Amazon in a job. |

Yes deporting those who do jobs for minimum wage will open up jobs, why do you expect people to work for little and live in poverty so you can have cheap goods? Your attitude was paramount among the rich and well off back in Victorian times. your problem long term, as this election proves, is the people won't vote to be poorer. People like Sanders or the Far Right will sail into power. Unless you think the vote should only go to those who own land or earn above $60,000. |

It's already happening. The average family income is dropping. Just having job hides the truth. Many of those jobs pay so little the taxes raised aren't covering the costs of running a modern country. Being able to more than the basics so affecting the retail market. Which has a knock on affect of putting those people out of a job. |

Which has a knock on affect of putting those people out of a job. Many of you are looking at this short term. Think long term. The West can't keep exporting jobs and automating them without thinking what to do with those who are put out of work. So the few can enjoy a richer life style. |
