We Have Discovered The Boom! Record Jobs For Those Who Make Stuff Up
In what may be the most appropriate chart to summarize not only the entire US "recovery", the "all time high stock market" and the daily newsflow, we present the number of jobs for those in the motion picture and sound recording industries, i.e, those who "make stuff up." It just hit a record high. And with "circus" jobs at all time highs, we can only assume jobs for makers of bread, if the BLS actually broke it out, would be off the charts as well. We will just leave it at that.

Bieber Fever ~ Snatch it...
We need to get some of them expert play pretend actors to testify in front of Congress about what they know.
Nah.. that would be stupid.
Wait... that IS Congress!
We don't need to manufacture anything anymore. We can replace all theses productive jobs with service, low end jobs.
This trend continues and you wonder why the job situation is so messed up.

That chart from the BLS “bull shit league” is as fake as my avatar.
I work in this very industry and we all have to do more work with less staff, it’s the same all over.
Also the film labs have been closing left and right. As an example a big entertainment center like New York only has one lab now and it’s struggling to survive. What I see are more minimum wage part timers and less talent. I concur when things get bad people go on staycations and instead of going away go to a movie, but have you experienced the price of a movie with popcorn and a drink that would make mayor Blumefuck shit his pants. The theaters’ are being forced to retool to a digital format that costs millions when they have perfectly fine equipment that is finally paid for and giving an ROI.
YOU “WE HAVE DISCUVERED” SHILL FUCKING BANK LOVINGASSHOLES at the BLS are talking out the side of your ass! Want to see a chart? Show a chart of the fucking banking industry you piece of shit.
Wait until the ISS zaps some sort of huge holographic 3D image to hoodwink the masses...

You think that floating hunk of shit can just track wind and ocean currents on earth?
I think it can do much more...
I once, no twice, err..... three times, yeah, three times slept with Morgan Fairchild. She had my baby.
My guess is that it includes all of the paid trolls/shills that are now planted everywhere to 'make stuff up' to destroy normal discourse and analysis of what a disaster this economy/country is becoming.
Paging MDButthole...can you please confirm who is filling your dog bowl?
Krugman also likely falls into this one by now....
Less to do now that BinLaden was 'killed'. Faking all those videos was a lot of work.
No worry though. Expect a major 'Wag thje Dog' effort soon focusing on North Korea (seems like the Pentagon was a bit worried that going after Iran might actually be a problem - war game scenarios showed us losign a few carriers in the Gulf right off to cruise missles..... besides Iran was Cheney's pet ptoject. Obama has to show some 'independence')
That's bullshit!
My double entendre merit badge for the day has thusly been earned.
Oh, and 'Nanke is printing up lots of dough, you just can't eat it.

And that doesn't even include birth certificate forgers.
Yes we can. Yes we can just make this shit up.
USA - The world's #1 manufacturer of Grade A Bullshit
Perfect illustration of Neptune in Pisces; ditto for all the oil & gas being found nearly everywhere.
No surprise here. It does not take any energy or real inputs to "make shit up". Now the world re-learns the difference between theory and reality (again).
Does your "make shit up" category include the BLS? They're masters, followed closely by the Congressional Budget Orifice.
The numbers are that high because they now count the MSM 'news' outlets, the FED, much of the White House, and certainly Congress as a group that 'make shit up'. Can it be any other way these days?
Does selective editing, as in CNBC's edited 911 call in the Trayvon Martin case count as "making shit up"?
I think that was ABC, but yes.
Keep all the 'shrooms in the dark, eating shit.
ABC? No it was definitely CNBC, but I'm sure other stations ran the same edited tape until they got caught.
Haha, very possible
It includes anyone who's job it is to sit in front of a computer and make shit up, period. Whether that is computer modeling of economics or weather or movies is fucking irrelevant. The laws Nature and physics really don't give a shit and neither should you.
Have to keep the circuses running at full throttle! Especially since the bread is getting more expensive.
Have you SEEN the price of bread helmets these days? And God help you if you're gluten intolerant...
We'll be converting over to Roman style 'circuses' soon - blood sports keep the masses diverted from wholesale slaughter overseas and has the added benefot of reducing the convict population. NBC has high hopes for 'Running Man'
Bullish?!
Uber bullish.
1600 today boys, take it to the bank; tomorrow, the moon.
What a putz I was to ever doubt the Fed could create another bubble.
Even Newton would be doubting if gravity exists today.
Gravity? Isn't that a barbarous relic of the ancient past, before they had TV?
Today Newton would have to conclude that an apple can fly off your head and into a tree.
Yeah like we need more Jewish directors and producers.

I guess I'll become a songwriter....I can make up stuff better than that and maybe get Justin to sing it!!! See, now I'm employed!!!

I wonder if we look back in history to see if this has happened before.

This time is different, cuz we got printing presses!
30% of CNT silver inventories withdrawn from COMEX in two days!!! After crunching the numbers, our panel of experts have concluded that by Tuesday morning at the latest, you should have donned your crap/flak- jacket/suit (shtf).
This is also due to the enormous tax breaks that Hollywood (who pays the pols) gets from the individual states over the years (negotiated by the unions) to get them to film in their locations.

Speaking of making stuff up, watching Bloomberg right now and the attack on bitcoin is on, Anyone who used bitcoin is a drug dealer because it is unregulated. They said that since you have no central bank controlling bitcoin it is very dangerous. They also equated gold and cash being bad but credit cards good.
Thank you Bloomberg for that public safety announcement.
Doing God's work....
See? What'd I say yesterday? If bitcoin is decentralized, it's dangerous — that's the meme that will be employed because it's the simplest and the sheep respond to fear. But bitcoin is perfectly fine with the authorities as long as it's handled by them because it offers the ultimate form of capital controls.
There will be a slow demolition of the traditional banking system, and paying for stuff with physical cash will become a thing of the past. You want anonymity? We'll all be stuck exchanging shit under a bridge at 2 in the morning.
I, for one, welcome our new electronic currency overlords...
I love bridges. Can't wait.
I'll be in a van down by the river!

I'll be the guy smokin' doobies.
While the notion of a currency not tethered to manipulative central banks and sleezy governments is nice and worthy, it should now be clear that bitcoin isn't the answer. Back to the drawing board to find something that won't swing wildly at the whim of every 14-year old with an army of zombie-bots.
Not surprising....WE have 300 different realty tv shows, American Idol, Xfactor, The Voice, etc... Bullish!!!
"The Truman Show", gone parabolic...
I'm still waiting for an "honest politician" to expose the cabal by leaking their filmed political career. I'm holding out hope that there's ONE insider with intergrity and fear of God, who's using advanced tech to record EVERY meeting they have with lobbyists and their colleagues. What a show that would be!

Does anyone else think that MTV and E! represent everything that is wrong with this country?
What about all the BLS statisticians...? Or all of Kevin Henry''s co-workers. ..
"But it's for the children and all of those non-conformists who don't love the police state."
We definitely are living in a world of make believe...
There is a definite need for propaganda.
That chart looks made up to me. Did that come from a new hire?
The willing suspension of disbelief is the bedrock of the post-modern world.
And of course "It's All Good!"
Speaking of made up stuff.

Dead cat bounce to $120.
Oye, we are doink sumsink for da whole woild withs our entertainment.
We have never manufactured so much propaganda. I expect the industry will grow even more. Especially as people start to question the answers.
But right there is the problem
THE SHEEPLE DON'T KNOW ENOUGH TO KNOW WHAT TO ASK IN THE FIRST PLACE
So they just sit there wanting to be told what to believe in for now.

Fucking Hollywood is just recycling old movies for the retarded masses who would rather watch "Arthur" with some halfwit instead of a genius like Dudley Moore.

Let me know when they combine Ishtar, Jersey Girl and Howard the Duck into a new movie.
As the know-nothing political science/marketing majors say: "perception is reality".
I think it is time we stopped discussing the unemployment rate while ignoring the inactive population.
It's time we moved, partly as an act of protest and partly as an act of truthiness, to a new statistic: Employment Rate.
Employment Rate = # of employed/population
I think this would show the real trends better--the move to two-income families, and now the hollowing out of the entire economy.
This is pretty close...and it is a telling story. Back to 1982 anyone???

Olympus has Fallen is a prime example of how stupid they think people are.
Globalists will not protect the US of A and therefore the United States of America is being forced into secession. Long live the revolution.
Yea boy just dumb us down.. Dance Moms buys Jigsawproduction interest.... So people don't care about Abramoff-Norquist-Reed triumvirate. pope coverups. enron but do about child abusing moms living out dreams vicariously children or satifying Nobokov Hebephilia nut jobs. Not surprising.. FED early lease and hack on Bitcoin?

Tylers. Brilliant. Laugh out loud funny.
Hollywood is tanking financially.
Two issues: Original/"big hit" content AND online / dvd/bluray sales.
This industry is hypersensitive to making all the right moves - to the point that they have choked the life out of themselves.
So now actors write cookbooks, make salad dressing, create clothing lines, are mouthpieces for socialist causes.....because their day jobs are done.
You can't make this stuff up...maybe you can.
And, why not, former United States Senator Chris Dodd is a Hollywood lobbyist for the Motion Picture Association of America? In fact, he’s MPAA’s Chief Executive. And the motion picture industry, financed by banks controlled by men who have a lot of political influence, long has been given better treatment than the lowly citizen or small businessman by Congress.
The mix of Hollywood tax perks covering the 2013-1014 fiscal year alone will cost taxpayers an additional $430 million a year for Hollywood through “special expensing rules” to (again!) encourage TV and film production in the United States. Producers can expense up to $15 million of costs for their projects. (Provision Section 181)
At the same time, California recently gave $100 million in tax rebates to Hollywood film makers. In addition the state “provides a 20% to 25% tax credit for certain production costs on low-to-mid-budget movies and TV shows that meet other criteria.” Most other states give Hollywood "incentives" also.
Said the LA Times in January: "It's not clear how effective the incentive has been. Film and television production continues to migrate to foreign cities, including Vancouver, Canada, and London, because of the stronger film tax breaks available there. And while production in the U.S. has increased dramatically in the last decade, most of that has been attributed to various state tax incentive programs.
“Nonetheless, the federal credit extension was strongly backed by the Motion Picture Assn of America,” i.e., Chris Dodd… i.e., Congress.

I assumed the post was about government, say BLS, employees hiring more creative writers, not people in an "actual" industry.
Reality is so great that throngs of folks enter dark rooms for hours at a time in attempts to escape it.
I have also been hanging out with PeeWee Herman
I thought the investment banks were laying people off? I mean Hollywood is good, but who is better than JPM or GS at making shit up?
Must maintain channels for subliminal content.
take a look at FED employment!
"And with "circus" jobs at all time highs, we can only assume jobs for makers of bread, if the BLS actually broke it out, would be off the charts as well."
As of 2010, according to the American Bakers Association, 1.7m are employed in baking.
There's always a foul profit to be made in promoting degeneracy, telling lies and distorting history.
Looks like that generation of aspiring rap 'artists' matured ...
just like the Great Depression... people need relief from the depressing reality
The chart is very easily explained, everyone in Detroit and Cleveland has a rap album.
Yeah.

That is actually pretty good. Are you black?
I think the data is just skewed due to the high number of former American Idol contestants.

The government never lies! The CPI must be true. You Sheep out there need to start complaining to the management of Safeway, Albertsons, and Walmart. They must be gouging consumers with outrageous food prices and probably pocketing all those profits. They have no shame.

Maybe the IRS hired 30k people for that fultard Star Trek hackjob they did?
Not to mention, reality TV is huge. This sector doesn't really hire people for any extensive period of time. Jobs come and go by the day here. Turnover is at a frequency most wouldn't believe. I've written employee on-boarding software systems for TV producers in this industry as they'll hire 50-100 people per day. It's all very short term though.
Testing, testing
See...
It's the circus, you stupid idiot.
Told you so.
Opiats for the masses. Couldn't possibly have anything to do with the free-flowing tax credits. Funny how Hollywood elitists want everyone to pay higher taxes, except themselves.
Boom times in the agitprop industry?! No mystery there.
Soon to be a boom in guillotine and related industries.
