Hilarious responses to the 2013 BLS April jobs report!


Headline: US employers added 165K jobs in April, lowering unemployment rate to 4-year low of 7.5 pct. The following are responses posted that were posted on Yahoo in response to the article:

-When bush was in office, I swear they would quote 400,000 as a healthy number. Now 165k is good.

-More Obama propaganda. Just look at Main Street and how your Neighbors are doing

-I was thinking we suggest to the government that they just simply eliminate ALL unemployed from counting in the report and that way we could get some really awesome numbers! The market would just love that.

-Just wondering if anyone else noticed that there was a fire at the Department Of Labor? Smells like someone is covering up their tracks...

-Big news is the fire that probably destroyed many records?????

-Over 500,000 "dropped out of the workforce" yet the unemployment rate went down. If you or I ran a business like the Government did, we'd be doing time for fraud and corruption.

-Thank you walmart and fast food joints. Im sure we will continue to watch growth in the food stamp and welfare department. Hows your morning Kool aid taste this morning crats? grape or strawBarry?

-Just think, if a few more of you had voted for McCain/Palin instead of the most Anti-Capitalist, Anti-Private Sector 'president' in History, we would have been well on our way to a prosperous recovery!

-Fire? Were they burning the true numbers?

-That doesnt even keep up with people of working age joining the market so like all these reports its total #$%$ and means more people dropped out of the workforce.

-Reports like these just go to show how out-of-touch the people who report these numbers are. Every economist predicted the rate staying at 7.6 and adding low 100's. Either every economist in America is wrong, or the BLS is producing these numbers with "magic".

-If Romney was our president now, unemployment would be at 2%. He should run again and save this country.

-Meanwhile, Obama is trying to grow the economy in Mexico, and import a few more million foreigners to take your jobs. Worst President EVER!

-Terrific. More jobs created that will require food stamp assistance

-In other news, suicide rates among the middle class highest ever...
Fewest in labor market in decades.
Highest number ever on disability
Record number food stamps
Food bank shelves empty
etc. etc.

-If you don't like the numbers you're getting, change the way you calculate them. It's the Alinsky way.

-Sweet! I am going to crack open that box of wine and celebrate! Its the roaring 20's again folks, lets rejoice!

-Why don't people believe the fact that baby boomers are retiring and it is messing with old norm numbers. Of course the participation rate is going to be messed with when an extra 80,000 people retire a month. Just look at the numbers swelling on S/S and it is obvious to all that understand the dynamics of removing that kind of number from the workforce.

The right to murder?

In the news yesterday I heard about the murder trial of the Philadelphia abortion doctor accused of killing babies in a clinic that mainly serves low-income women. This left me wandering in thought. Those who are pro-life certainly value the concept of choice. They however, make preparations concerning pregnancy before conception, by choice. They would argue that this is the morally responsible thing to do. Those who claim to be pro-choice claim the right to make this decision after conception regardless of the eventual fate of the fetus, possibly terminating a life. They argue that the rights of the individual trump those of the unborn fetus.

Here's the rub as I perceive it: How ever one chooses to define it, a life has been created upon conception. This life should be defined as a human being if only for the fact that it will not alter it's design in the womb and become something else. It has a genetic code and was designed to become a human being. Moreover it is unique in all creation in that it possesses a soul and personhood from day one. I am certain of this for at least two reasons. One, nobody can claim or prove the exact moment of personhood other than from conception. Three, six, nine months, which is it? Since nobody knows exactly, benefit of the doubt has to be applied from a moral, physiological and logically consistent standpoint. The second reason concerning our soul comes from the pages of the most read book on the planet. Jeremiah 1:4-5 says: Now the word of the Lord came to me, saying, “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, and before you were born I consecrated you; I appointed you a prophet to the nations.” This is one among many passages where The Lord assures us that our soul is created at conception and personhood begins in the womb.

Personal morality is one thing, government intrusion is another. Those who choose to live by a moral code of ethics are forced to walk the thin line between personal conviction and the laws of the country they live in. We can do little to change that individually. However, we have every capability to change the hearts and minds of those within our sphere of influence. For the love of God is the most powerful force in the universe. To Him, all life is precious, especially life created in His own image.

Just today President Obama encouraged those gathered at a Planned Parenthood event to continue fighting for abortion rights. "You've also got a president who is going to be right there with you, fighting every step of the way," Obama said. It's crystal clear where our current President stands on this issue.
