Layoff’s slowing and the green shoot theory

[jpinpb]

[quote=Arraya]The “perception control” that is appearing(intentionally or not) with unemployment falls into a bigger pattern with all other economic data. Usually, if you do a little digging, most cited data for an improving economy are based on misconstrued statistics or in some cases outright lies. You can find those when Bernake or Giethner speaks.

If I wanted to be less cynical, I would say it’s a natural proclivity towards optimism coupled with a few statistical aberrations to the point of being misleading.

If I wanted to be more cynical, I’d say they are purposely misleading people to milk them of their investment money. A pump and dump coordinated between the USG and the media. An optimism conspiracy.

If this latest episode follows the same narrative as the housing bubble, any measure of the true state of affairs won’t be acknowledged by the MSM until it just can’t hidden anymore. I’d say late summer/fall we should get another dose of economic reality. Unless, that is, you are one of the recently unemployed.

Also, with the latest report:

In addition the “birth-death adjustment” was +226,000, close to double the previous month. That’s the computer model that “estimates” the number of jobs that are created in the economy but unreported.

Makes me think they tweaked the bda so the market would react to the news. Otherwise it would have looked like last months with no appearance of improvement.

Job Fight: Immigrants vs. Locals

Tennessee Residents Compete for Work They Once Scorned; An All-Night Wait for Slaughterhouse Shifts

Hard times recently drew scores of locals and immigrants to a cold sidewalk in this town, where they spent an anxious night waiting to compete for jobs in a slaughterhouse.

Burmese refugee Cho Aye traveled 60 miles from Nashville on a Thursday morning in late March to take a place at the head of the line outside Shelbyville’s state employment office. The next day, the office was to take applications for $9.35-an-hour jobs processing chicken at the local Tyson Foods plant. Directly behind Ms. Aye, sitting on blankets atop the concrete, were 16 more Burmese refugees who had come from as far away as Idaho and Florida.

“I don’t mind doing any kind of work,” Ms. Aye, a petite 22-year-old, said that evening as she settled into a reclining beach chair she bought at Goodwill….

It’s only going to get worse for immigrants or immigrant looking people. Expect to see more gripe about “our jobs” being lost to immigrants.

Funny thing is I don’t seem to recall too many people looking like they are American Indians.

Time to stock up on guns and ammo. Where’s partypup when you need her…
