Under Obama: 30 Worst Months of Employment Over The Past 25 Years…

BARRY0619 2012/05/24 10:54:08

The federal government’s Bureau of Labor Statistics publishes monthly
tallies for the employment-population ratio. That stat shows something
rather straightforward: Among those who are living in America and are
free to pursue employment, what percentage are employed? (The bureau
excludes those who are under 16 years old, are active-duty military, or
are — in the bureau’s own words — “inmates of institutions (for example,
penal and mental facilities, homes for the aged),” from its tallies.)

1. (tie) July 2011, 58.2 percent, President Barack Obama
1. (tie) June 2011, 58.2 percent, Obama
1. (tie) November 2010, 58.2 percent, Obama
1. (tie) December 2009, 58.2 percent, Obama
5. (tie) August 2011, 58.3 percent, Obama
5. (tie) December 2010, 58.3 percent, Obama
5. (tie) October 2010, 58.3 percent, Obama
8. (tie) April 2012, 58.4 percent, Obama
8. (tie) October 2011, 58.4 percent, Obama

    I am very sure this is correct. Many people I know have stopped looking, like my husband and me. Both victims of the BO economy.

    Good post! I knew it was happening. Jobs down here in this town are almost nil. If you are a healthcare provider in any capacity there is some hope. I have been blessed in that I am a registered nurse and I work nights here. But the days - when the local University is not in session - this is a dead field for new business and for those who are looking for permanent employment. A drive down through midtown will show the empty buildings where the business owners either bankrupted, or closed due to the economy.
    The utilities, the hospital, and civil service jobs are up and running but most are not hiring new employees. I pity the up and coming seniors at the University. I hope they majored in healthcare but even that is limited to available openings. It is much worst this year than ever.
