Reply #11: The job data is mostly Christmas inducement-

[Beaker]

You can't turn on a tv or radio today without someone gleefully shouting about how the wonderful economy is adding more jobs, and all signs point to a booming economy just around the next corner-

Just like The Junta helped to talk down the economy in order to get elected, they're desperately trying to talk it back up(for exactly the same reason).

If they get their media minions and mavens to spread good news cheer, the masses will pry open their wallets and spend spend spend on oodles and oodles of STUFF(made in china) this Xmas shopping season- after all we're on the road to recovery, and I'm bound to have a good job by the time the bills come due to pay for all this stuff, and after all we deserve to treat ourselves to nice things, right?

right?

and the scary thing is-

it just might work.
