It's Official: The US Created Less Jobs In 2013 Than 2012

Bush's fault, obviously.

The Fed spent over $1 trillion in 2013 (to push the stock market to all time highs) and all we got was... less jobs created than in 2012?

The President's policies are obviously working. Where's AK with that job creation horseshit montage?

Retirement, what's that?

 

I can't help but notice the acceleration in labor force participation decline started about the time Odumbo took office.

 

As I understand it he took on a full time job of sucking Obama's dick.

 

In Obama's defense, that was attributed to the crash of October 2008 - he wasn't on watch. And you can probably give him the first two years - at MOST - as a waiver as well. But seeing job creation slow down again after it had picked up slightly (never mind the way the BLS reports it's horseshit for a minute) then there's no way you can't blame Obama for this.

Though folks like Ricter will come up with a creative reason on why you shouldn't.

 

You must be feeling kind today. You really consider Ricter's bullshit "creative"?

 

I do blame Obama. He's neither Keynesian nor socialist enough.

 

It's creative in the sense of how a four year old answers questions like "what does God look like", though no where near as cute.

 

Yes, when a strategy doesn't work, double down.

Just to get it on the record, what do you think Obama should be doing that's more socialist or Keynesian?

 

Of course, some blame also goes to the mouthbreathing tea party, who spent the whole year, hair on fire, screaming and running in circles about debt and deficits, which problems have sharply lessened with the rise of GDP (just a coincidence, I'm sure).
