Labor Day: 90 Million Americans Without Jobs; 36% Of the Population Mac Slavo September 2nd, 2013 This weekend President Obama delivered his weekly radio address commemorating the Labor Day weekend: Over the past four and a half years, we’ve fought our way back from the worst recession of our lifetimes. And thanks to the grit and resilience of the American people, we’ve begun to lay a foundation for stronger, more durable economic growth. Except like everything else coming out of Washington, President Obama loaded his speech with platitudes and wishful thinking, failing to mention the reality of what’s happening in our economy – and especially our labor force. According to a report from the Bureau of Labor and Statistics, we’re far from having a laid a foundation of recovery and are, in fact, on a trajectory not of durable economic growth, but one of a complete collapse of our way of life. If the health of our labor force is to be an indication of America’s economic health and survival, then the only plausible assessment is that we are about to flat line as a nation: The Bureau of Labor Statistics has reported alarming unemployment figures that are reaching the most desperate levels since the Department of Labor began collecting the data during the Truman administration three years after the end of World War II. On Aug. 2, the BLS reported nearly 90 million Americans were not currently in the labor force in July, with the percentage of the civilian non-institutional population not in the labor force now registered at 36 percent. … According to John Williams, an economist known for arguing the government reports manipulated “shadow statistics” of economic data for political purposes, the real unemployment rate for July was 23.3 percent, not the 7.4 percent reported by the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Over one-third of able-bodied Americans are not working. That is the stark reality of the situation. The President and his Sirens would like us to believe that they have taken the necessary steps to increase the number of jobs and improve wages, but nothing could be further from the truth. In fact, if anything, it’s a fact that the President’s mandates, such as his healthcare legislation, are turning us into a part-time nation: The Obama administration continues to discount the huge impact its health overhaul law is having in turning America into a part-time nation, calling reports anecdotal and not based on complete data. To paraphrase Groucho Marx: Who are you going to believe? Me, or your own eyes? An avalanche of “anecdotes” continues to pile up as workers across the country are having their hours cut and their health benefits slashed across a broad range of industries. For every full time job created in the United States in 2013, we’ve created four part-time jobs. Historically, during times of economic growth and progress, the situation was reversed. Everything, from the President claiming we are recovering from the worst recession of our lifetimes to American job creation, is upside down. The worst part of it? While Americans celebrate the resilience of the American economy over their barbecue grills today, our nation is being systematically decimated through Obamacare mandates, taxation and a destruction of our currency. Over the last four years the individual wealth of our nation has been vaporized, and given the policies being implemented by our government, that’s only the beginning of the destruction of the middle class. We are on a path of pain and impoverishment, and unfortunately few of our fellow countrymen realize what’s really happening. The next stage of collapse is in our sights, and it isn’t going to be pretty. Millions of Americans who failed to prepare and insulate themselves from the coming destruction will be blindsided when it hits. Now is the time. Develop manageable and sustainable strategies that will ready you for what’s coming. All signs point to serious trouble ahead.

The jigga-boo in Chief has never even had a real job and knows nothing of the hardships and obstacles facing young families just trying to have a meaningful and happy life. This is happening in America - Once the greatest Nation on Earth. When these pukes open their foul mouths I seethe with righteous anger over the deaths of my fellow Americans forced to fight for the oil barons in the sand dunes turned grave yards of the middle east. Screw this nigger and his entire gang-banging regime ... and the opposition party is NO FREAKING DIFFERENT. If there were ever a time for Americans to fight for THEIR OWN COUNTRY - that time is upon us ! Americans need to come together and pool their resources for a better future. They also need to prepare for a war of the middle-class against the cocksucker class. Death to Tyrants ! Strange times are these in which we live when old and young are taught in falsehood’s school. And the one man who dares to tell the truth is called at once a lunatic and fool. – Plato (429-347 BC)
Good heavens. You do cut right to the chase this morning. We are aware of what happens when there is a surplus of "labor". IN 1939 there were nineteen million unemployed American men. Sixteen million American kids were drafted and at one fell stroke the unemployment situation vanished.
We have enough infrastructure in dire need of repair or replacement upgrades to put everyone that wants to work in a job. I don't know if the chicken or the egg came first but I do know that sending all of the manufacturing out of the country and importing the unemployed from Tijuana could create a need for a war, a draft, and foster parents. Strange times are these in which we live when old and young are taught in falsehood’s school. And the one man who dares to tell the truth is called at once a lunatic and fool. – Plato (429-347 BC)
The wants to work is the rub in ameriKa today. I believe that we've jumped the shark on our work ethic here. “The most dangerous man to any government is the man who is able to think things out... without regard to the prevailing superstitions and taboos. Almost inevitably he comes to the conclusion that the government he lives under is dishonest, insane, intolerable.” ~ H. L. Mencken
Turtle... Back to the coming war. Have you ever given it some thought as to why the government has kept the flood gates open from Mexico???? When the next affair starts, we Yokels will of course be invited, however Joe Beaner is also available by the millions, cannon fodder if you will. Look at it from the current military view, if we engage in a nuke affair, we can hold our own. However if there is a major land war, say in Asia, we will need MILLIONS of Yokels and Beaners. Recall the law, citizen or illegal alien, they can all be drafted.
I lived in Albuquerque for a long time. They'll fly right back to Mexico. And you wouldn't believe the drunken driving there. Whenever an illegal gets in an accident, zoom, right back to Mexico. "Have Brain, Will Travel
I believe that we've jumped the shark on our work ethic here. Not to mention that most everybody is so fat & sickly that they can't work. Eat your "healthy whole grains" and wash it down with a Big Gulp sized HFCS. Don't forget your Metformin and Lipitor afterwards. Godfrey Smith: Mike, I wouldn't worry. Prosperity is just around the corner.
