And if compassionate conservatives got their way it would be closer to 140 million because the only approved job for a woman is pregnant by any means necessary to keep those bitches in the home where they belong with no birth control available and prison for any woman who might seek to rid themselves of a then fertilized mass of cells so any male of the species could be passing on his particular set of genes.

Worldwide unemployment is at an all time low thanks to capitalism, consumerism and cheap fossil fuels!

I can see you hoping for a worse world, just to be able to say, "I told you so, you stupid conservatives!"

I don't see it working out that way.

I see life improving with tech and bio, some downsides to both.
I see society ebbing and flowing.
I see insurrections and peace treaties.

I see a world where it is just more of the same

>A record of over 56 million women NOT working

Aug 2014 unemployment rate, US women: 6.1%
Aug 2015 unemployment rate, US women: 5.1%

(Source: BLS http://www.bls.gov/web/empsit/cpseea10.htm)

>92.8 million people NOT looking for jobs cause they can not find one

No, that 92.8m people are the people not looking for work. You know, college kids, retired people, people working off the books etc. Let's do the math:

92.8 million people not looking for work, 250 million people eligible to work (over 16, not in jail) in the US - 37% of people not looking for work. That means that, at steady state, if everyone in the US worked during their working years, then 63% of their lives would be spent working and 37% be spent not working (going to college, in retirement, unemployed etc.)

Let's take a hardworking guy who starts working at age 16 off the books as a busboy. He gets some loans, goes to college, has to start working his senior year when his loans run out. He then works until age 55 and retires. He lives to 78. (Average age in the US.)

He has worked 60% of his life and is not looking for work the other 40%.

That means, on average, Americans work MORE than that.

>Job numbers much lower than anticipated in August

No, job numbers up considerably in August; we added 173,000 jobs. In fact, August marked the 59th consecutive month of job gains, the longest stretch in history. The fact you misheard is that an economist predicted we would add 220,000 jobs.

http://blogs.wsj.com/briefly/2015/09/04/august-jobs-report-the-numbers-2/

Reality has a well-known liberal bias.

[rushmc 23]

The 92 million are those who have stopped looking because they can not find jobs

Therefore they are not counted in the unemployment figures

As Forbes noted, (and others) if they were counted the unemployment number is just over 21 percent

And currently more people are coming into this country than there are jobs being created

Wages are flat

And

Even if no one was crossing the border the new jobs numbers do not cover those entering the workforce during the same time frames

You need to find reality

A real one

it will be because we destroyed ourselves."

Incorrect. You didn't read any of the links, did you. (My mistake; I will stop posting them if you can't be bothered to read them.)

>Therefore they are not counted in the unemployment figures

That's right. You don't count a happily retired couple, or a college student who is going to school full-time and not working, as unemployed.

>Wages are flat

Recent US wage increases, normalized to % per year, from the U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis:

April 2015 4.18%
May 2015 4.39%
June 2015 4.2%
July 2015 4.24%

(For reference, inflation in 2014 was .8% a year)

Sucks when reality continually conflicts with your political ideology, eh?

[rushmc 23]

No. Not retired people. Nice try

Figure is based on those who are working age and have dropped out of the workforce because they cannot find jobs

=======================
Refresher Course: Inside the Jobless Numbers

Are we undercounting the unemployment numbers—or overcounting? How the BLS gathers and calculates the numbers, and why it matters.

By GENE EPSTEIN
July 18, 2015
The unemployment rate has never been the object of as much attention from the markets and the media as it is now, sparked by the keen interest taken in its monthly fluctuations by policy makers at the Federal Reserve.

Despite the heightened focus, there are a lot of misunderstandings and misconceptions about how the rate is calculated. Some people assume the Bureau of Labor Statistics compiles the rate from the unemployment-insurance rolls. On that basis, they fault the BLS for undercounting the unemployed. But that’s just one myth among many about this cornerstone measure of economic pain and labor-market slack.

To estimate the unemployment rate, the BLS actually relies on the monthly Current Population Survey conducted for it by the Census Bureau. While the data are highly imperfect in their own way, we think the Federal Reserve is right to view the official unemployment rate as the best available information, while also keeping its eye on ancillary measures of “labor underutilization.”

In fact, a close look at BLS methods suggests that, if anything, the official unemployment rate may be overcounting rather than undercounting the unemployed.

Let’s break it down. There are 2.2 million people currently receiving unemployment-insurance benefits, against a BLS estimate of 8.3 million unemployed as of June. As mentioned, the BLS arrived at that figure via the Current Population Survey (also known as the Household Survey), which consists of interviews with 60,000 households nationwide, done face to face and by telephone.

These households are a representative sample of those deemed eligible for employment: the “civilian noninstitutional population” 16 and over, where “civilian” excludes the armed forces, and “noninstitutional” excludes people in prison, hospitals, mental institutions, and nursing homes.

According to the June figures, that came to 250.6 million people: 148.7 million employed, and 101.9 million not employed. Of those 101.9 million, 8.3 million were deemed unemployed, with the remaining 93.6 million listed as “not in the labor force.”
. . .

A word about those 93.6 million folks 16 and over who are neither employed nor unemployed, and thus “not in the labor force.”

Many nonparticipants are still in school, of course, and many others are retired. Many are on federal disability, legitimately or not, and probably supplementing their income by working off the books. Many are working in the illegal drug trade and in other illegal activities. Some are independently wealthy. Still others are busy raising their children and doing volunteer work—jobs that don’t pay.

Those who believe the unemployment rate is underestimating unemployment are in error.

That "93 million" is counting (roughly) 30 million people who are full time students and 40 million who are retired.

So much for "93 million who have given up looking for work because the economy is so bad." It's only off by a factor of (about) 4 1/2.
