"I hate to break this news to any conspiracy theorists, but those numbers are always put together by career analysts at the BLS, not political appointees."
This was my response this morning in another thread when it first came up. I'm a little surprised that Jack Welch tweeted this crap, and more surprised that he didn't admit the wacko nature of it when pressed. But, he's been slipping for awhile. |

"What is the overall consensus of the "conspiracy theory" (originally tweeted by Jack Welsh) today regarding the unemployment rate compiled by the Dept of Labor? "
Mostly bullshit methinks. These numbers are kept well secured and the people working on them have a high security clearance. It would be a scandal on the level of Watergate if they did cook the books, I doubt Obama would take the chance.... |

*Could* the Dept of Labor fudge numbers for political purposes? Probably. *Would* they? Eh, maybe. *Did* they? I have no idea. Without evidence of some kind to back it up, it's just wild speculation, so I will not jump on a "bullshit numbers" bandwagon.
