In reply to the discussion: Payroll employment rises 227,000 in February; unemployment rate unchanged at 8.3% [View all]mahatmakanejeeves
(57,393 posts)3. I make a point of posting this every month.
I have the commentary making note of the tables and explaining where the numbers come from ready to go. This month, I had the link to the ADP report of a few days back ready to post too.
The numbers are the numbers, and I post them whether they are good or bad, regardless of how they make any particular politician look.
I think DU is the first place on the Interwebz other than BLS itself where you can find this information. I'd like to keep it that way. It's foolish pride, but it's my foolish pride.
Thanks for reading this.
