Given that we need to add around 100k a month to keep even with population growth, anything less than that will certainly drive up the unemployment numbers (unless of course, folks flee the jobmarket entirely)
Where's the word "unexpectedly"?
Cue Garage Mahal....
I can feel it.
Had two contract jobs in the can for the summer that withered away.
I only get one or two calls from recruiters every day. In the spring, it was four or five.
Don't expect to work much until fall.
It's OK. I'm tired of working. Want to learn another programming or scripting language like I want nails driven into my eyeballs.
The unemployment rate is being severely under-reported. Its actually over 12 percent and the underemployment rate is closer to 20 percent.
The Obama administration is gaming these numbers and if we really had an adversarial press it would be quite a scandal.
must be those damn ATMs at work
Never mind, the word I was looking for is in the lede over in Bloomberg's article.
(Hat tip to Glenn Reynolds.)
Ha.
Big Mike beat me to it.

"Complete humiliation for Wall Street's economists, the lowest prediction of whom came Bob Brusca at +60K.
...There is no sugarcoating this report. Absolutely abysmal. "
Not surprising. The "Summer of Recovery" was last year. Remember?
Its the corporate jets and the millionaires and billionaires that are causing this.
If only we had higher taxes the hiring would accelerate.
Great job Obama. Really swell. Why not make a big long speech about big bad oil or corporate jets? There are 15,000 corporate jets, why not name them all in your big long speech, why not read out their tail numbers?
has Mr Obama ever filled the vacancies on his "economics team?"
not that they were all that hot to start with, and I suspect no one wants the job in the current environment.
When Bush was president, the headline would have read:
Unemployment Rate Soars to 9.2% as the U.S. Added Barely 18,000 Jobs in June
I think that the answer is to suppress domestic gas, oil and coal production.
These businesses are run by evil businessmen and entrepreneurs.
We should focus all of our efforts on green energy.
Because things work so much better when they are run by government bureaucrats and Utopian idealists.
Here in Woodstock, we've discovered that we can meet all our energy needs with completely sustainable green technology.
Yet I'll bet employment and compensation are up in the D.C. metro area! Bubblicious!
The Big 0 will speak at around 10:30, I understand.
He is getting disgusting.
Who will be the class-warfare villain today?
Housing prices, too!
"...why not read out their tail numbers?"
Could my man Michael just POSSIBLY be a bitter and frustrated man because of what our fearless leader, the Obamassiah, is doing to our national economy? Why yes, yes indeed, yes I think he is..
LOL! (right there with ya buddy)
10:30 is a little early for a friday afternoon dump--where is his sense of timing?
That's not the headline I see now -- it reads Job Growth Falters Badly, Clouding Hope for Recovery

Big Oil for sure...
and speculators...
Did you knote that oil and gas prices are back up to a higher level than before O'bama released 30m bl from the SPR?
Bet you didn't read in the press that we sold the oil off at a $10/bl discount. That's right, we sold the oil for #300m less than the going rate. I wonder who got to buy cheap oil :)
"U.S. Economy Added 18,000 Jobs in June"
That was supposed to be 500,000 according to Joe Biden.
You can't trust anything those guys say. Or anybody else who's with them, really.
Note too that the May and June job numbers have been adjusted downwards by over 44K.
"Yet I'll bet employment and compensation are up in the D.C. metro area! Bubblicious!"
Yep! My just-graduated daughter moved there last month at the urging of friends who had moved there the year before. Hired in a week. Nice salary. Great benies. I moved her and spent some time in the area. Phat City...nice cars (BMW, Mercedes, Lexus fuck Detroit), well dressed people, busy restaurants and retail, rents are outrageous and going higher. Boom times for northern VA and Maryland.
My daughter is now advising her laid-off friends to find a new home in DC. The only refuge for the fucked-over in flyover country is DC. You could say my feelings are conflicted on this issue.
"Blogger Roger J. said...

Excellent observation. This stuff is usually reserved for around 3 or 4 PM.
Obama was focused - like a laser - on jobs during June.
No wait. Sorry. Wrong.
He was actually on vacation in Martha's Vinyard.
But folks working in the White House gave themselves fat raises. They made sure of that.

I didn't realize we were allowed to have both daughters and still be able to use "phat". I'll have to start immediately...
"That's not the headline I see now -- it reads Job Growth Falters Badly, Clouding Hope for Recovery"
Only in the New York Times does an increase in the unemployment rate count as a faltering of GROWTH.
I mean, you can't make this shit up. They parody themselves.
Do they not realize how fucking stupid they look?
LMFAO.
A recession is when you are out of a job.
A depression is when Obama is in serious trouble.
Obama is in serious trouble.

Well, the (now repealed) luxury tax on expensive pleasure boats (aka yachts) worked splendidly in eliminiating jobs at boat manufacturers.
So, surely, a tax on the sale and/or operation of business aircraft should take of this pesky problem as well.
Despite all these statements to the contrary, I see Obama winning re-election. Because...
o No Republican candidate willing to challenge him out of fear of being called racist
o Media determined to see him re-elected
o 95% of blacks voting as a block for him
o Certain percentage of voters voting for him again just because he's black
o Candidates who could really put up a fight driven out by Brer Rabbit strategy
The media and Democrats are successfully arguing that Republicans must nominate a candidate who will be polite and won't say anything too bad about Obama. No extremists, like Palin, who Dems assure us would lose in a landslide.
So, the Dems argue, better to lose a close race. Run a Republican candidate we like... like McCain!

There are -500k fewer government jobs since Obama was inaugerated. That should be good news to wingers like you who truly think taking money out of the economy in a recession is a good idea.
There are -500k fewer government jobs since Obama was inaugurated.

CHART: Over 500,000 Government Jobs Lost Since Obama’s Inauguration
We just need to cut deeper.
But what happens when you shed public sector jobs amidst an already weak economic climate is the sharply reduced incomes of the former teachers and whatnot lead to them spending less in their local communities.
Thanks for the link, GM. I'm going over it now, but this statement jumped out at me. Given that statement, I wonder what Matthew thinks the impact on the economy would be if energy prices "necessarily skyrocketed". It doesn't matter how your income is reduced. By his logic, it's still less money in the economy.
My point being, if you are in line with him over this, aren't you against policies the President has said would cause energy prices to dramatically increase?

Employment in government continued to trend down over the month (-39,000). Federal
employment declined by 14,000 in June. Employment in both state government and local
government continued to trend down over the month and has been falling since the
second half of 2008.

Obviously President Obama needs to add some of those Atlanta teachers to his economic team to magically improve the unemployment numbers. I'd bet dollars to donuts that at least 90% of them voted for him.
GM-
Assuming your chart is correct, approximately 2.3% of government jobs were cut. This is a lot better than what happened in the private sector.
garbage,
You'll still leading us around the Mulberry bush.
So, how does adding more government employees help anybody but the guy who got the job?
Thousands of people who pay taxes (many of whom have lost jobs or have reduced incomes) have to ante up to pay that one guy's salary.
The White House just gave all of its employees fat pay raises. That's gotta help, too.
GM-
Your link still doesn't support the chart.
Government workers are doing a lot better than just about every sector of the economy.

CHART: Over 500,000 Government Jobs Lost Since Obama’s Inauguration
We just need to cut deeper.
Yes we do!!! I suggest another 15% in job reduction for the government (parasite) workers. We can start with all the schlubs working on Michelle and Barry's staff who just got a nice raise.
Lets say you have 10 people: 6 private industry and 4 public employees, and you want things to get better, because the public people are costing more than the private ones can pay for.
What will help:
1) More public employees?
2) Less public employees?
3) More private employees?
4) Less private employees?
How do you get what you want?
*note: Private employees hired due to government subsides are actually public employees
Prolly has something to do with the census winding up...
Not really. Despite the artful misdirection of the reference to "Obama's inauguration", the chart is for employment by ALL levels of government. (Federal employment is actually up a bit over the same period.)
Yes we do!!! I suggest another 15% in job reduction for the government (parasite) workers.
Agreed. A 15% reduction of Republican public workers would be a great start.
Crack
To paraphrase a fairly well known quote: "Every word out of their mouths is suspect. Including 'it' and 'the'.
GM: "Agreed. A 15% reduction of Republican public workers would be a great start."
That would be about twenty people. How about a 15% reduction in Federal employees, period?
Guess how many layers of "management" between the Secretary of the Interior and a ranger? 18.
You have not supported the 500K reduction in Federal employees. The links do not support that contention.
And David Plouffe will tell you unemployment will not have an effect on the election next year.

The unemployment rate is being severely under-reported. Its actually over 12 percent and the underemployment rate is closer to 20 percent.

Remember government spending is a huge multiplier for economic growth. I know this because liberals have cited 1000s of studies from left-wing economists.
Heck of a job, Barry!
Remember the Democrats do not "own" the economy yet. In fact because the GOP has the House now, that clock just reset again. The Democrats can't own the economy unless they control the government for 20+ uninterrupted years.
In a separate article that I read yesterday, some doctors are dumping participation in health insurance and running their practices on a cash on the barrel head basis.
Based on their rates, I'd say that this is the outcome:
18% of medical payments go for actual medical services.
82% of medical payments go to paying for insurance and government bureaucrats in administrative positions.
Make sense, doesn't it?
You have not supported the 500K reduction in Federal employees. The links do not support that contention.
First of all I never said Federal employees. Secondly, I didn't write the article. Email or go post at Yglesias site if you have a beef with it. Anyways I thought you would celebrating along with the rest of the right wing about the sad unemployment levels?

Well one thing we know:
1) is that ObamaCare will create almost 400,000 jobs IMMEDIATELY,
2) Is that Unemployment Payments are the best way to stimulate the economy, with $1.80 being generated for every $1 spent.
My conclusion is create an NHS AND put everyone on Unemployment and soon we will be in an Utopia…..depending on how you define “Utopia.”
Sorry, Alex. The DNC chair gaffed her way into owning it a couple weeks back. She was so excited about the gains and improvements in the economy that she wanted to make sure everyone understood that the Democrats owned it.
Gaffetastic.
The Democrats own the economy when any little bit of good news comes out and the GOP owns it whenever unemployment goes up. Those are the rules.

No thinking person would celebrate these crappy employment numbers and for you to insinuate that it is a cause for joy among conservatives is profoundly insulting and sophomoric. It might occur to you to examine the policies that have not worked in the current downturn and discover what might be changed in order to improve the situation.

Bullshit. Republicans want a crap economy and you know it. They will prevent any plan that could help from becoming law at all costs to make that happen. They're even against tax cut policies they are in favor of. Obama is almost as bad as he is too fucking chicken to even make the case that he needs job bills, and meanwhile millions suffer as a result. It's criminal.
Bullshit. Republicans want a crap economy and you know it.
Political realities are what they are. Are you going to deny that Democratic leadership wasn't thinking along the same lines in 2006 and 2008? Or either party anytime they are not in the White House?
Why do you think this shit only flows on one side of the sewer? Everyone stinks.
I've have always thought that this is a big part of the way in which regulations impose a drag on the economy. Putting aside the content of regulations, the constant change makes it very difficult for business to plan for the future. And what is hiring if not a bet on the future? Dems and Repubs alike are guilty of this. "We are going to focus an jobs" may be the scariest words out of a politicians mouth. Set the playing field, and then stop meddling!
They will prevent any plan that could help from becoming law at all costs to make that happen.
Another thought occurs...the flip side of this would beg the question on the Democrat's lack of producing a budget. I don't suppose there were any cynical political calculations involved, do you?
And what, exactly, garage, is a "jobs bill"?
Remember government spending is a huge multiplier for economic growth. I know this because liberals have cited 1000s of studies from left-wing economists.
I think that most here would seem to agree that that attitude is a big part of the reason that we are where we are right now with the economy.
I did think that Garbage was conflating federal government and all government workers. It is that the only way that the feds could dump a half a million employees would be to lay off all those Census workers. Otherwise, this would be a notable chunk of the fed's non-defense workforce. And that just doesn't seem credible given the increase in federal spending since the Democrats took over Congress in 2007 of around 4% or so of GDP and increase in the annual deficit of of a trillion or so dollars.
I do actually remember Democratic polls like Pelosi in a bidding war as to the what Keynesian multiplier would apply to all the great spending that they were authorizing. Turns out, it is less than one in real life, except for possibly shovel ready projects, that Obama just discovered don't really exist. (And to the person in a previous thread who tried to say that the Dems weren't trying to practice Keynesian economics - most agree that there are significant differences between Keynesian economics and the economics of Keynes).
Just remember the meme: Obama made the economy worse.
Putting aside the content of regulations, the constant change makes it very difficult for business to plan for the future. And what is hiring if not a bet on the future?
Get rid of two-term presidents. One six-year term with no re-election ever and prohibit them from holding other office. Tax their lobbying income at 50%.
Long enough to get things done, while not scooting around the country at three years running for re-elections (ie, not doing your job). Sit astride three congressional elections. No second terms ever, even non-sequential.
And what, exactly, garage, is a "jobs bill"?
I think that all of us (excluding maybe Garbage) understand now that a "Jobs Bill" is a pork laden attempt to enrich Democratic party constituencies through trading private sector jobs for bribes to these constituencies. The reason that they can use the word "jobs" in the title is that they are actually costing jobs each time they do this.
GM-
So you took a TP chart on faith without checking the source? Doesn't mean it's wrong, but you should be more careful in the future.
I think you're losing it.
I didn't vote for Obama, and I thought he would be bad, but not this bad.
"I think that the answer is to suppress domestic gas, oil and coal production. These businesses are run by evil businessmen and entrepreneurs."
That lefty anti-business meme, with its inherent class warfare tone, used to be tossed out with impunity. Now, in addition to sounding increasingly stupid, it may be causing real harm.
The Democrats own the economy when any little bit of good news comes out and the GOP owns it whenever unemployment goes up. Those are the rules.
Reminds me of what Dennis Miller said when people were grading Obama's first 100 days in office: "If he does something and it works, Obama gets an A; if it doesn't work, Bush gets an F."
Bullshit. Republicans want a crap economy and you know it. They will prevent any plan that could help from becoming law at all costs to make that happen. They're even against tax cut policies they are in favor of. Obama is almost as bad as he is too fucking chicken to even make the case that he needs job bills, and meanwhile millions suffer as a result. It's criminal.
Someone seems to want a rerun of the "stimulus" bill that really got this recession moving and deepening. Don't know very many people besides you and former Enron advisor Paul Krugman who actually believe that this would help.
The reality is that the government cannot actually create long term jobs. There may have been one example of this actually working in the past (WWII), and many economists even question that (as an example of a counter-arugment, we were the recipient of a significant portion of the world's gold at that time, when we were still on a gold standard).
In any case. Jobs bill don't work. Never have worked long term, and most likely never will. In our current situation, it would be throwing good money after bad, likely increasing unemployment as a result.
Let me repeat: jobs bills in the midst of a recession cost jobs, and Keynesian economics fails except possibly in some very extreme situations, which we are not likely to encounter.
"I think that the answer is to suppress domestic gas, oil and coal production."
That's part of the answer. Another part is to have the NLRB prevent the start up of large new manufacturing plants in right to work states.
pathetic and very sad.
"By a 44 percent to 34 percent margin, Americans say they believe they are worse off than when Obama took office, according to a Bloomberg National Poll conducted June 17-20.”
Reminds me of what Dennis Miller said when people were grading Obama's first 100 days in office: "If he does something and it works, Obama gets an A; if it doesn't work, Bush gets an F."
We still get a lot of this, 2 1/2 years into Obama's term and 4 1/2 years after the Dems took both Houses of Congress. But, it looks more and more far fetched, as time goes on.
The libs here and elsewhere trot out the graphs showing that the last couple of Bush (43) years significantly increased the deficit and debt. That, of course ignores that spending bills come from Congress, and the Dems were running Congress by then. And, then, you just have to look at the graphs of the deficit, borrowing, etc. to see the huge jump once the Democrats had both the White House and Congress - the deficit jumping from a couple hundred billion at the end of Bush (43) to well over a trillion a year under Obama and the Democrats.
What Garbage and the rest of the libs are trying to hide is that Republicans are desperately trying to cut spending back to pre-Obama levels. Or, I think that they would be happy to get halfway there, and set it up to ultimately get there. And, the Dems/libs/MSM don't want us to know that they grabbed approximately another 4% of GDP for the federal government and themselves during the time that they controlled both the White House and both Houses of Congress.
This 4% of GDP is what both parties are fighting over right now, whether it is a permanent addition to the federal government, or should be given back to the private sector and the taxpayers. The problem for the libs/Dems is that keeping the 4%, which they so desperately want to do, is a big reason why we aren't coming out of the recession.
GArage: "Bullshit. Republicans want a crap economy and you know it. They will prevent any plan that could help from becoming law at all costs to make that happen."
Here is where your stupidity is spotlighted in a way that is particularly unflattering to you and your side. Republicans want to make money. Republicans prosper when the economy is good. Republican businessmen would be delighted to have nothing but great economies under Democratic or Republican or Soviet leadership because they would make more money. Do you actually think that Republicans care more about power than money? You project. You are an idiot and a malevolent one to boot.
"By a 44 percent to 34 percent margin, Americans say they believe they are worse off than when Obama took office, according to a Bloomberg National Poll conducted June 17-20.”
My memory is that this is even worse than it looks here for the Dems, because registered Democrats responded heavily that they weren't worse off (even apparently if they were unemployed as a result). Which means that the figures were even more lopsided for Republicans, and most importantly, independents.
Remember the meme: Obama made the economy worse.
Let me repeat: jobs bills in the midst of a recession cost jobs,
LOL. You're a fool.

A “Jobs” Bill would:
1) Repeal ObamaCare;
2) Soxley;
3) Dodd-Frank;
4) Reduce Corporate Tax Rates, Ideally replace all taxes with the “Fair Tax”
5) Repeal EPA’s ability to intervene in Carbon Emissions and CAFÉ Standards; and
6) Replace the majority of the NLRB.
These things would produce “jobs” Garage….what YOU call a “Jobs Bill” is merely shoveling money to Democratic Special Interests, or temporary tax credits for doing certain government-approved things.

I can answer that, it's easy. A jobs bill is when the government spends $850 million dollars on job programs that create, oh, about 27 jobs.
But, wait, here’s the rest of the story:
The so-called underemployment rate -- which includes part- time workers who’d prefer a full-time position and people who want work but have given up looking -- increased to 16.2 percent from 15.8percent.

We could only wish. There isn't a single Republican among the very few business advisers he has. Lots of leftie academics, however. Good with the models. I like the model of theirs that said we would never go above 8% unemployment if we went for the stimulus. Well, we went for the stimulus.
Hope you are right on a primary challenge though I doubt it will happen. There is no one to the left of him and the base will not accept someone to the right of him, including Hillary who would be like a bottle of ice water in the middle of the desert compared to our current leader.
Unfortunately is appears Republicans are advising him. I'd like to see him primaried.
I don't think that you really do. Right now he can pretend to be a centrist, maybe triangulating between the Democrats and Republicans in Congress. But if he does face a serious primary challenge, it will almost assuredly be from the left. And that means that he will have to move to the left, and this movement will have to be obvious to work.
He isn't going to lose the primary, because the Blacks in this country will be solid for him. Any Democrat beating Obama for the nomination is going to have record low turnout from the Black community, which likely means an electoral rout for the Republicans.
The thinking Democrats all know this, which is why they aren't about to let Obama lose the primary. No matter what they think about him, he is far better, for them, than another eight years of a Republican President, likely combined with Republican controlled House and Senate.
Of course, those of us with a more conservative bent are pulling with you for a viable primary challenge.
And I thought we discussed this already
"What are those 34% thinking?"
And this!
Good thing we're stuck in a ditch. That's the only thing saving us from Obama driving us over a cliff.
"Bullshit. Republicans want a crap economy and you know it."
In a similair vein, one of the stupidest things I've heard lately is the claim by libs that the reason companies aren't spending their cash is that they want a crap economy to damage Obama. Because everybody knows that the best way to make money is to cut your nose off to spite your face.

Will anyone be employed by 11/01/2012?
My read of the situation is that the small and medium sized business services firms and manufacturers are just holding on by their finger nails. If we get a sudden downturn in exports or consumer spending then the collapse will start.
Most of my clients are living almost month to month as regards their credit limits, revenue-flow and spending plans.
Things are shaky on Main Street and they are very vulnerable to a psychological trauma event. Confidence in the business world is fading IMHO.
If China pops or the EU undergoes a credit crisis then watch out.
By a 44 percent to 34 percent margin, Americans say they believe they are worse off than when Obama took office, according to a Bloomberg National Poll conducted June 17-20.
You see, it is just a belief that they are worse off. There's no evidence to back this up. Does't make it so just because they believe it!
If a Republican were president it would read - By a 44 percent to 34 percent margin, Americans say they are worse off than when McCain took office.
A small distinction that makes a big difference in how the survey is portrayed.
I will give Bloomberg one Brownie point for still publishing their results. The ny times or cbs wouldn't let the poll see the light of day. They would've resurveyed with different phrasing in an attempt to get a different result.
It's going to go a lot higher before there's a chance of it really coming down.

Yep. We're about 1/30th of the way there. We really only need five Cabinet departments: Treasury, Justice, War, State, and Interior. I hope to see 90% of our bankrupt government abolished, and the rest folded up into these five. And the same at the state level.
