<<Where and in what industries were they created? Was it in manufacturing where 2,700,000 jobs have left the United States? Did that icon of the old West, Levi Strauss, hire these workers? Was it the service industries that provided these new positions of employment? You can be sure that the increase in employment was not in the professional sector, not in the manufacturing sector, but rather in the retail sector.>>

None of this is relevant.None of this explains why or how the numbers were supposed to be faked.

Look it's silly to claim that the numbers were faked...As much as bush would like to fake'em it would require to many people..Somebody involved or some one who gathers the numbers would see the discrepancy and spill the beans....yet over the years no one to my knowledge who works on these stats has come forward....

Now I will agree that the numbers really aren't significant enough to claim anything.. But I do note that we have had rip roaring bull mkts whilst unemployment wuz higher than 6%...I'm a bull ....currently
