The Gross Deception of the Employment Stats



















The employment rate dropped to 9.7%. Not really. Look at the above stats from today. All of the growth was in Government hires, most likely the Census employees. The real problem is that the changes in the other categories add up to a negative number! Government spending is driving out private investment. Is there no common sense at all in Washington these days.

Look at April v May! This is terrifying.
