The point is that you don't have a point. I demonstrated the falsity of your premise and you doubled down. I will no longer waste keystrokes on you.

Good Lord, if the job participation rate was 66% like it has been historically the unemployment rate would be much higher. If people leave the work force the unemployment rate goes down.

If that is too complicated no wonder you are a lefty.

You said 'actual increase jobs.' You didn't say 'actual increase in employment rate.' There has definitely been a big actual increase in jobs. Millions and millions.

Participation rate is indeed a factor that affects unemployment rate, but you flubbed up the argument. Brilliant as we lefties are, we easily see your point, and your mistake. Admit your mistake if you aren't too weak in comprehension to see it.

I'll admit that Don. But, he knew it and rather than try to explain how the low unemployment rate is so great considering the declining job participation he just decided to dwell on my misspeak because he really doesn't have an answer for it.

No! It's not some Trump-bashing parody! It's genuine Putin PR, spotted inside Russia!

But no, there's nothing to this fake story that the Russians see Trump as their guy....

It is a simple message to the Russian people.

Relax! No need to be so tense as we were recently. No need to fear the "Breedloves".

Sure it is. American liberal politicians operate with shadowy motives, under the influence of sinister international figures even. But Russians are straightforward, candid--with them, what you see is what you get.

Our country is so gullible, easy to believe any conspiracy theory and ignore simple painful facts. Easily to imagine millions of illegal aliens voted in this election, then see no effect from Russia?

Believe good paying jobs are coming back to the USA. Yes they will be but for robots! Automation is the main culprit for the loss of jobs now. Manufacturing positions are being replaced by mechanized over humans in ever increasing numbers, they work 24/7 no vacations and sick time.
Also look no further the your local grocery store and the checkout lines to all the self serve. Then two others would be online transactions and phone service centers.

So now Rump is going to have a major investigation into voter fraud. His fragile ego simply will not let this go. Of course this will divert everyones attention away from how he is dismantling america to make it a corporatoctracy.

I'm pretty tired of old rich people telling me what to do while they give themselves a pass.
