Is the new "job creation" standard for the Dems this...?

When your unemployment (including extension) benefits run out, you are then considered employed.

Update:

Gee Wally, I think that this is the first time that I ever agreed with you...lol. I have been saying for years that we need to repeal the Clinton signed NAFTA, CAFTA and U.S.-China agreement.

If it wasn't for those, our manufacturing jobs would not be in Mexico, Canada and China.

    Our economic misery will continue as long as we keep sending jobs overseas.

    This is in today's news. Expect more people getting unemployment and other social services. And don't whine about it either.

    No. There are three categories for the population: Employed, Unemployed, and Not in the Labor Force. The survey used for the Unemployment rate does not ask nor in anyway consider eligibility or receipt of benefits.

    The Population is everyone 16 years and older not in prison, an institution, or the military.

    If you're working, you're employed.

    If you're not working, could take a job if offered, and actively looking for work, you're Unemployed.

    Everyone else is Not in the Labor Force.

    No. It is when after you get laid off because the first round of "stimulus" funding was used up they give another round of funding to rehire you. That counts as 2 jobs created.

    You'll know when they come knocking at your door wanting a hand out.

    actually, if your benefits run out and you are not looking for work, then you are not considered unemployed
