Unemployment rate

"Upon the Republicans being voted into the majority for the new Congress, unemployment went up .2%."

- Democratic party spin (should be....)

1. Yeah! R's would spin that into hyperspace. D's need a good pitchman. n/t

2. Yeah but

After they cut everyone off of unemployment insurance, the rates will magically go down.
After all, claims filed for UI is how they determine it.

I like how you think, though :)

3. And with no UI, all those lazy bums will get off their butts and find jobs.

5. Yeah, all those 1 out of 10

unemployed Americans - they're all lazy bums, eh...

:sarcasm: :fistbump:

4. It's created greater uncertainty and the banks...

...don't want to lend with so much uncertainty, and businesses won't hire when there's this level of uncertainty. The elections certainly have brought greater uncertainty.


I'm just running with the Wall Street meme
