A. The post may imply. The reader may infer.
B. You stated 'I am employed ==> employment rate zero.'
C. Reads like a quite unambiguous logical proposition. No inference necessary.

No, you were trying to deflect.

The economy is doing better under Obama in spite of the Republicans full court press to sabotage it. That's the point of this thread.

Not the fact that you are trying to hire some cheap labor to clear out the 30 foot long vines in your yard.

There is obviously something wrong with me.
