No. Those are not. the. same. thing. Apples and oranges. Actually, apples and vegetables..

The above numbers represent the actual number of those employed in WI month by month (jobs). These numbers are also supplied directly from the U.S. Bureau of Labor not dailykos, huffipoo etc.

September's number is larger than August. Then October more jobs, November even more, December more and unbelievably January even larger for 5 straight months of job growth. See when the number comes back larger it means jobs gained not lost (again despite the slashing of thousands of needless, redundant, economy sucking public sector jobs and their over inflated benefits that come with them) thus indicating the private sector is alive and well in Wisconsin. So well in fact the President visited MasterLock, in Milwaukee in an attempt to take credit for bringing back jobs from China despite having absolutely nothing to do with it.

Math must have been one of your tougher subjects in school.

Probably why Wisconsin is under 7% unemployment rate while KY is struggling at 9%. (Have some veggies with your fruit)

Sigh. Dell. This is not "math". This is "reading comprehension".

Again: the BLS unemployment rate you post (without reference, btw) are not the same thing as the BLS number of jobs available that I have posted.

They are not interrelated zero sum numbers dependent upon each other.
They are measuring two different things.
That's why the BLS lists both.

Want proof? Tell me, from the six months you've listed above, using your numbers, tell me how many factories closed in Wisconsin and how many job opportunities were lost?

You can't do it. That's because your numbers have nothing to do with it. Your numbers are only the actual number of people working. Your numbers do not reflect job opportunities open, available.

I am sorry you simply can't understand that.

Again: Wisconsin, 6 straight months of job loss 2011, the worse in the nation, and it's the actual BLS report, in the multiple references I have provided (which you've clearly not bothered to click on) that show that.
