Markle and the Labor Force Participation rate

The tow truck bill had to be paid to get the economy out of the ditch. The President did not put this country there, but he sure has got us out. The key to focus on is the length of the recovery without a major .

No... I don't think we did need to throw money at wall st and the banks. I think you bought a load of shit.

Cutting and pasting and unable to answer one question Boards has posed to you is more about desperation and immaturity.   I just think you are getting senile.  Your arguments are fallow, and when pointed out you run......cut and paste unable to explain or defend.......a sixth grader could do a better job.  Five months of job creation at this rate will surpass eight years of President Bush's job creation.......it has to hurt.

He used to at least try.   He just runs now.  I remember five years ago when he could make an argument in real time without cutting and pasting.  Good arguments, but now I do not think his heart is in it.  I think even he realizes the President has been doing a pretty good job.  He will probably work for Hillary in 2016.

Nope......10k a day.....us Babyboomers are enjoying early retirement with full medical coverage.......those of us who were prepared are having a heck of a time......however, the President will create more jobs in five months than President Bush did in eight years......wowser.  I think I will enjoy some time in Pensacola this winter and Marco island.......just having a blast dropping out.

2seaoat wrote:Earth to Markle......the bubble in the population which caused the labor participation rate to go up in the eighties with more woman and a greater percentage of the population working because of that bubble is now retiring.  A very simple concept recognized by economist, but you seem to be math challenged.......by golly I planned to drop out all those years saving......and you want to tell the 10k a day who are doing the same that President Obama is responsible for our retirements.........and this is somehow bad......you cannot make this stuff up.   You have to have a very low IQ to follow your logic......wrong forum Mr. Markle.....wrong Forum.......Try the hooterville herald forum.......I heard Arnold the pig agrees with your ideas.

bingo.......2008:

Baby boomers are people born during the demographic Post–World War II baby boom between the years 1946 and 1964.

HMMMMMMM   1946 to 2008.......hmmmmmm  62 years of age and the beginning of the babyboom early retirement.

2008 the year President Bush drove the car in the ditch with the worse recession since the great depression.......by golly you are observant.  10k a day babyboomers began retiring.   The biggest bubble in our population who increased the labor Participation rate when for the first time both men and women were entering the workforce, now were retiring......it is a beautiful thing.

BOF, like the main stream media, touts a meager 321,000 new jobs.

IGNORES 11,918,000 who have dropped out since OBAMA. 12/6/2014 at 5:58 pm

THIRD attempt at the FACTS. Something my far left Progressive good friends seem to find offensive.

BOF, like the main stream media, touts a meager 321,000 new jobs. IGNORES 11,918,000 who have dropped out since OBAMA.

Just can't make these things up.

Labor Force Participation Remains at 36-Year Low

December 5, 2014 - 9:17 AM

(CNSNews.com) - The labor force participation rate remained at a 36-year low of 62.8 percent in November, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics.

The participation rate, which is the percentage of the civilian noninstitutional population who participated in the labor force by either having a job during the month or actively seeking one, was 62.8 percent in November which matches the percentage since March 1978.

In November, according to BLS, the nation’s civilian noninstitutional population, consisting of all people 16 or older who were not in the military or an institution, reached 248,844,000. Of those, 156,397,000 participated in the labor force by either holding a job or actively seeking one.

The 156,397,000 who participated in the labor force was 62.8 percent of the 248,844,000 civilian noninsttutional population, which matches the 62.8 percent rate in April, May, June, August and October of 2014 as well as the participation rate in March of 1978. The participation rate hit its lowest level of 62.7 percent in September 2014.

Another 92,447,000 people did not participate in the labor force. These Americans did not have a job and were not actively trying to find one. When President Obama took office in January 2009, there were 80,529,000 Americans who were not participating in the office, which means that since then, 11,918,000 Americans have left the workforce.

Contrary to the belief of 2seaoat, the POPULATION of workers in America has GROWN every year. BOF and 2seaoat believe that because baby boomers, like myself, are retiring NO ONE IS REPLACING THEM.

I know, stunning isn't it?
