So you are jumping in to maintain scrupulous integrity in the matter of that side ssue, while looking past the original and larger issue from which it sprang - that being the contested utterances of mr. trump - that about size it up, captain saveaho?

Nope. I am seriously insisting he did not change the way the U6/U3 is counted. Unless YOU ARE insisting he was president in 1994....

The statistic from the BLS is one of the reasons the economic crisis went undetected for so long — an economic indicator that is deceptive. The statistic is...
