So you agree the real unemployment rate is a lot worse than the
numbers. I think that is what the OP was going for.

nope. what i said was that you're too stupid to understand how it's

I am "stupid" because I posed a legitimate question?

Not counting those who have given up looking, even though employable, is
dishonest and
totally misleading to the public. Hint: The "real" unemployment rate is
near 20%.
That's scary.

Eisboch (not so dumb after all)

Yes, this was the same dolt who some time ago claimed Germany had
significantly less than 20% unemployment.

He's only a dolt because he talks with the nuts, insults almost
everybody he speaks to, and repeats the same things over and over.
Otherwise, he's usually right.
German unemployment is about 6%.
Anybody can find that with a few key clicks.

Same deceptive math, but they want to believe what the want to believe.

Here's some more economic facts.
There's a whole bunch countries with an AAA credit rating.
Austrailia
Austria
Canada
Denmark
Finland
France
Germany
Guernsey
Hong Kong
Isle of Man
Liechtenstein
Luxembourg
Netherlands
Norway
Singapore
Sweden
Switzerland
United Kingdom

Many people in the U.S.A. call those countries "socialist" because they
all have universal health care and old age pensions.
Seems crazy to them.
The U.S.A. has an AA rating and no universal health care.
Second class compared to the countries on the above list.
The U.S.A. does have food stamps.
About 20% of Americans qualify for and use food stamps.
You can't buy beer with food stamps, so personally I don't want to ever
depend on food stamps. Even if I had beer money on the side.
Food stamps are second class "money."
Many people living in the countries with AAA ratings have trouble
understanding why 20% of the people in the U.S.A. are on food stamps,
with which they can't buy beer.
Seems crazy to them.
You can decide for yourself who's crazy.

Rating agencies are bull****. USA should have lost triple A 3 years ago.

I never understood why China was rated so low. Only $1.55 trillion in
civic, provincial and federal debt combined. And offset that they have
lent others more money than tat which makes China in a positive balance.

But then these were US companies doing the ratings. And we know liberal
media downplays that everyone but Moody downgraded USA, it wasn't just S&P.

No doubt in a US treasury you will gt your money back, the real question
is will it be worth as much. And that later prt has a certain risk that
assures it will not be worth as much.

Seems like paying your bills with real money is no longer the accepted
behavior in USA. Perhaps that is the problem and not the the solution.
