      Most American's weren't alive when we had unemployment numbers this good (you have to go back to when man first landed on the moon). Meanwhile liberal economic experts like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (she has a bachelor's degree in economics from Boston U.) has proclaimed that the numbers are so good because Americans are forced to have two jobs ("Unemployment is low because everyone has two jobs. Unemployment is low because people are working 60, 70, 80 hours a week and can barely feed their family.")

        And Hispanic and African-American unemployment?

        The Democrat Masters are going to have a more difficult time holding them on "the plantation".
        The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

          The average is 40.8 hours per week for people between the age of 25-40, which makes sense. There's probably some outliers though who have to work 80 hours inEdited by a Moderatorjobs. But the average is the average.

          She's wrong on this one.

            The point is that someone with a degree oughta know better than to say it's because people are forced to have two jobs that has caused the unemployment rate to drop the way it has.

              Oh yes definitely, I wasn't disagreeing with you.

                Is that what she's saying now? First time she tackled the unemployment issue, she said it was impossible to calculate, that it was essentially just a made up number.

                  I think you're confusing the above for your own argument when Obama was the president, MM.
