It did no such thing. Employment statistics, while useful for things like long term comparisons, are not an accurate reflection on the reality of today.

So it is always, in this type of measurements or results that show......there are no measurements that show the truth,

I suspect it because many store hire more people to contend with holiday shoppers. There will probably be jst as sharp a drop after the new years.

Xmas work, come the new year they will be up again.

Figures here in the UK have been fiddled for years and I suspect other country's as well.

When your unemployment runs out?
You fall off the rolls.
Most stats say "Unemployment Claims for X Month".
It's a slight of hand way to fool the ignorent into thinking things are better then they actually are.
The U.S. Gov is very good at this type 'Magic' and the average U.S. Citizen is very good at falling for it.
:nope:

And what will it be when all the troops come home ???? And all the sob stories that we will hear, that our fighting men can't find a job because the rich don't want to pay their fare share, what a mess we made for our heroes to come back to, I'm ashamed for what our government has done to this country.
