Greg, when did you ever trust government figures? Right, because you can only trust what corporations and churches tell you. |

Greg, when did you ever trust government figures? I was in the data base analysis biz long enough to know you do not believe any output until you know what went into that view. |

Greg, when did you ever trust government figures? Right, because you can only trust what corporations and churches tell you. You only trust things you can verify yourself. In the case of the "unemployment" number. it has always been a self serving government factoid and every administration manipulates it for the outcome they desire. |

Well, Tim, you implied government figures were not trustworthy. I don't believe much of what churches or corporations tell us is trustworthy. |

wrote: Typically, I view government statistics that interest me "relatively," especially the ones under questions because of the inherent vagaries of data gathering and manipulation. Perhaps back in the olden days when people were using a pencil, "statistics" was an arcane science but these days it is just data base analysis. The first rule is garbage in garbage out. You can frame a "view" to make the data look almost any way you want. In the case of the unemployment number, the biggest variable is who they consider to be unemployed. In the current view, that excludes anyone who quit, was fired with cause, simply refused to apply for unemployment or anyone who was never able to get a job in the first place. You are pretty much left with the ones who were laid off, signed up for unemployment and are still eligible for benefits. |

Well, Harry, the subject was about govt figures now wasn't it? Not Churches or corporations. Wow can you throw a thread to the curb. LOL |
