The States are Going to Hide Unemployment Data

[JCMach1]

per MSNBC


Talking about propaganda. Watch the markets the rest of the day, this will not go down well.

1. they are being told to do so...

which is slightly different... lets see which ones do.

[uponit7771]

3. It'll be all red states

[LaurenOlimina]

2. WTF?!?!

[rufus dog]

4. Why

Seems to serve no point other than to point out they cook the books

[JCMach1]

5. Expectation of record # 2M+

This is about Trump

[Wellstone ruled]

11. That number was yesterday's

filing for unemployment benefits. We had tens of thousands filed before 4pm yesterday alone.

[JCMach1]

14. Then we are talking 5-7M over two weeks time

[Wellstone ruled]

19. We can only wish it is that few.

Local news interviewed our Person in charge at the Unemployment Agency,she hinted maybe a million plus by this time next week

Just think about a state the size of California,they will have north of 15 million by this time next week.

7. so the market doesn't go to zero (near zero)

on Donny Boy's watch.

9. As awful as the health implications are... the economic fall-out is likely worse

long-term

[TeamPooka]

15. lying to the markets will make the financial situation he wants to save more than people, even worse

[uponit7771]

6. Then the UE numbers are being cooked now if any agree to that. I've always felt MAGA Suckers woujld

... do something like this

[Brainfodder]

8. The soup/bread lines are gonna get real weird?

[Me.]

10. But That 2 Mil Has Already Been Reported This Morning On S. Ruhle

[gibraltar72]

12. Yeah they don't want individual stats. They said they will compile and release them

as official. Meaning they'll manipulate them. I can't imagine the numbers won't get out in most states.

13. People will see it in their personal lives when friends and family are out of work.

We may not realize the scope of it due to hidden numbers, but they won't be able to say that the crisis hasn't affected very many people. This is going to be too big to hide, the illness and the economic fallout. We have the absolute worst CIC we could have during a crisis of epic proportions. I can't believe I read this morning that his approval rating on his handling of this has gone up. What the ever loving fuck? : facepalm: Is this our media? Or are Americans really that fucking gullible and ignorant? Or both?

Market -650 as I write.

16. This poll was done by a company that has a D rating

I looked for the methodology I bet it skews heavily with repuke respondents.

[CrispyQ]

17. I'd like to think that was reassuring,

but republicans response to this - the people and the GOP Congress - is horrifying. My sister has a friend who even yesterday joked about what an overblown spectacle this is. The friend who wore a GOD and GUNS tee shirt to Easter dinner last year.

[OnDoutside]

20. Well said.

[Chainfire]

18. There is only so much rug

to be able to sweep things under. All of these agencies have people with access to the real numbers, not all will tow the party line. The truth will come out.
