And the unemployment rate is coming down because there are fewer people looking for jobs and more discouraged workers, as well as more part timers than ever.

This is just not true. Why do you make this crap up?

In the company I work for, I have seen layoffs EVERY year for the last 4 years. Our contractor to employee ratio is going up steadily. I suspect they are quietly getting rid of employees to avoid the coming increased costs of Obamacare, which they don't have to pay for contractors.

Then your company is not a very good one. You might want to look elsewhere for employment.

It's why folks who buy food and gas simply don't believe the Fed and the BLS when they say there is no inflation.

Gas is the cheapest its been here in three years. I just filled up yesterday for less than $50. Food prices have been spectacular here......however, that may be coming to end with a looming strike by local workers.
