I was reading an article about how these unemployment rates are figured and the formula is for sure STACKED.

Not only that, current job gains have NOTHING to do with how many get lost. For last month (April) I think the job gains (added) were just a hair over 110,000 but if you looked at how many were LOST, that number was above 500,000!

It's total bullshit that these figures are allowed to be distorted and manipulated like this! Absolulty No accountability and No transparency! A total fucking deception for the American people and some people are so fucking lazy and ignorant they don't even bother to ask.

Banking regulation really is much like what I have said above. If banks were required to report rather than to delay what they call "posting" of transactions much of this overdraft BS would not be an issue. Far too often we have banks using unfair tactics to steal money from customers. They do this by waiting to report things, changing dates and costs of services WITHOUT warning. They know that even if 50% of their customers complain and they have to rebate fee's they still made money on the other 50% who were too lazy to bitch! I agree with PowerStroker in the sense that banks should not be able to pass off these deceptive polices as errors and they should be held accountable every time they try and pull this shit! I also feel these politicians should also be held accountable for trying to manipulate the numbers...

If Obama actually started to focus on the little things we might find it makes a BIG diffrence, of course he is now part of the 1% but he must act as if he is still part of the 99% if he is to have a chance of winning re-election. Truth is he just does not care anymore and will say just about anything to trick people into voting for him. He should be DOING anything it takes to earn his votes and there are things he could do that would make people take notice, but then again that goes to the whole "He doesnt want to piss off his 1% buddies" because he knows his lavish White House lifestyle isn't going to last forever. I am sure the Obamas will miss that, but my only hope is they dont get another 4 years of it.

Lets face it, Obama only acts like he cares at election times. Any other time he has some whacked out agenda. If Obama was given another 4 years he would totally screw America and milk her for all shes worth. He would in essence know that the next 4 years would be his last, and thus he would just spend it on a permanent vacation globe trotting around the world, sending his family on lavish tax payer vacations while trying to implement his secret agenda that only he and his handlers know about. These handlers are the people that took this no-body from rags to riches.

Pathetic! I'd rather have someone running this country that went into office with success and wealth than someone who lived on handouts. I am pretty sure Romney does not have a Fanny/Freddy loan on his homes, but according to online records Obama has. That's not an example to live by! Banks cant compete with government institutions like Fanny and Freddy, so they become dependent on them and many Americans simply just do not get loans.

Much like Obamas BS health care law that will cause many employers to simply drop their health care plans if only because it will be way cheaper to pay the fine and have them go the government route. Soon PowerStroker will be in here crying because his shop dropped their health care plan, and that now his new government plan is much like Automobile insurance today, where you pay an outrageous amount for just bare bones coverage that really isn't worth a damn in minor accidents and is totally useless in major ones. What the fuck is that? That's what you can expect when the government mandates you buy something! It's wrong! It's unconstitutional and its got to be stopped!
