Those numbers suck. You need at least 130-150k to accommodate the churn.

"WE've turned the corner." Yeah, into a brick wall.

I see it real-time on Bloomberg.

19. That's terrible!
That's an awful number, and I suppose that's with the birth/death model applied.

18. Yup, it didn't say that a couple minutes ago!
They had a big banner with 300,000 New Jobs. Friggen liars MSNBC are. I don't care if they quickly fixed it. It says plenty.

17. CNBC reporting 96,000
and not sounding happy about it.

Flipped around the channels and they're still talking about Martha Stewart. Priorities.

Whoops, CNBC just went to Martha Stewart.

20. Looks like the gravy train's OVER, GE.
GE's pissed and will do anything to save their defense sugar daddy.

Being a biznatch to the sheikdoms is "hard work", but those connections benefit prostitutes like GE, MSRNC and the like. Gotta shill, shill, SHILL for the simian and do anything they can to keep that money . . . er . . . president in office.

22. GOP's favorite jobs report, the household survey, shows 585,000 jobs lost
Household Jobs show disaster-labor force drops 1 million, job loss of 585K

The GOP's favorite DOL jobs number, the Household survey number, shows bigger Job disaster than shown in the anemic 96,000 jobs gain in the payroll survey jobs number. The Household Survey reports 201,000 lost jobs in September since 139,681,000 were "seasonal adjusted" employed in Aug less 139,480,000 of Seasonal adjusted folks Employed in Sept., and that is a drop of 201,000 jobs. If you prefer numbers that are not seasonally adjusted, then 140,226,000 less 139,641,000, or 585,000 jobs were lost in Sept.

And that Steady 5.4% Unemployment rate is based on folks no longer being in the labor pool and therefore not counted as unemployed. The seasonal adjusted change is from 147,704,000 looking for work or employed in August to 147,483,000 looking for work or employed in Sept, or 221,000 folks dropped out. If you like non-seasonally adjusted numbers, then 148,166,000 less 147,186,000, or a huge 980,000 folks stopped looking for work or being employed in Sept.

NEARLY ONE MILLION FOLKS STOPPED LOOKING FOR WORK OR BEING EMPLOYED IN SEPTEMBER!!!!
