Whopping 932,000 Americans Drop Out Of Labor Force In October; Participation Rate Drops To Fresh 35 Year Low
The only two charts that matter from today's distroted nonfarm payrolls report.
First, the labor force participation rate, which plunged from 63.2% to 62.8% - the lowest since 1978!
But more importantly, the number of people not in the labor force exploded by nearly 1 million, or 932,000 to be exact, in just the month of October, to a record 91.5 million Americans! This was the third highest monthly increase in people falling out of the labor force in US history.
At this pace the people out of the labor force will surpass the working Americans in about 4 years.

The analysis is faulty. Number one Qe is forever, it's not going away, and number two the fed will never sell the bonds they bought back into the market. The lack of buyers would send rates through the roof. The best the fed can hope to do is to let them run off.
Yes, let the bonds mature or run off as you say. In the meantime, government is reducing the need for debt or the thing doesn't work out as the Fed likes. Qe for a long time and debt reduction until the country is dry as a bone.
Another "copy and paste" spammer fuck. Here, I can copy and paste too moron.
Deflation is a fucking myth as no society/currency has ever collapsed/died because their purchasing power was too strong.
With 7+ billion people (and growing) competing for a better quality of life, there is plenty of demand (and growing) for all kinds of real assets, commodities, and energy. "Dangerously falling inflation in the euro zone" - LMFAO!!!! What's the cost of living in most EZ countries again? Fucking morons.
MUST NOT HAVE DEFLATION IN LEVERED ECONOMY!
Exactly. Deflation is a great thing. Your money buys more stuff. It is a natural consequence of technological progress. How is that bad for the average Joe? But for the system that hands out free money to the people at the top it is devastating. If money wasn't printed and handed out to prop everything up, defaults would hit the system. Credit goes poof and leveraged shit annihilates the Duke brothers. We can't have that. Oh, no, that would be the end of the world.
Dangerously falling inflation ..... hahahaha
First, the labor force participation rate, which plunged from 63.2% to 62.8% - the lowest since 1978!
But the Other People's Income Participation Rate is at an all time high!
Gotta love this math: A big boost in jobs (204k), for a smaller amount of job seekers (LPR 25 yr. low), but the “Unemployment Rate” is up.
Another reason why any taper talk is pure sophistry.
yup, and total bullshit too.
They keep buying at close to 0% until government has their spending under control. Cuts are made everywhere which is a good thing but there is no growth either.
Unemployment, welfare, food stamps and free health care. Working is for a living is for chumps.
Wow! more equals less and less equals more.
I wish I was smart enough to be wizz kid economist.
Gee are they blaming it on the sequestor? NO WORRIES JANET ON HER WAY.. and all the stock buybacks and overseas cash by multinationals and C class is aready bailed on dollar... Jim Grant for FED...
nothing to see here folks...move along. If you criticize the government about this then you're just a white, Christian, racist, bigot, homophobe, 2nd Amendment supporter, Conservative, Constitutionalist, Libertarian Ron Paul supporter, and also a double-racist too (don't forget that), plus you hate everybody (except other racists), and you're a criminal who will shoot everybody you can, especially black people, gays, TSA agents, union workers, and DHS agents...you also probabaly value privacy which means you're a terrorist who needs to be analy raped for 13 hours in New Mexico by the police because that's where you hid your dirty bombs. ;-)
...and a good morning to you too ;)
I'm only reciting what MSNBS, CNBS, CNNBS, DHS, and the Department of Injustice says we all need to look out for as responsible socialists...oops, I mean "citizens". Especially those people who wear flannel shirts and green John Deere hats....they're especially double-racist terrorists according to the true facts we have been told to believe (or else) by our dear leaders and their propaganda, oops..."news" machines. ;-)
So, how about somebody explain to me why for the 2nd time on ZH, directly after I post something (in all it's glorious "humor", haha) does my post get locked out from me being able to edit it? Has anyone else had this happen? At first there's an edit button, but when I clicked it I get an "Access Denied" page. Then when I refresh and go back to my post the edit button has been removed. Gee, it's like someone is not only locking me out from ADDING to my post, but also locking in my post so that I can't erase it....ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooohhhhh...like I would want erase it anyway! LOL
Is ZH teamed up with the Nazi hit squads in case any of us offend our Marxist overlords? Will black helicopters and a SWAT team be visiting me sometime soon? so scary....
Edit: But for some reason I can edit this post freely while I still can't edit my first post. Be careful all you "up" arrow voters to my first post...you're Up vote is being tracked and the hit squads will be tracking you down soon as well! ;-)
Edit-Edit: Question to the Tylers...so what gives, ay? Do you have "flagged" words that automatically lock out a post so that we can be reported to the hit squads? Do tell...I'm intrigued :-) Maybe this whole site is run by the CIA and NSA?
If someone responds to your post you can't edit it anymore. You can edit it until someone responds. Just to be clear.
ah, ok...I did not know that! Thank you!
Darn...I thought I stumbled onto a conspiracy and was about to get SWAT teamed at my desk at work, LOL. Still probabaly will though, right? haha
That reminds me though...Conspiracy Theorists are also terrorists too, even when you're proven correct and the government lies about it and you get demonized by the "news" demons for being right about pointing out that the government lies, well, you're still just a crack-pot conspiracy theorist.
So I'll just say that the employment numbers are conspiracy by the government to manipulate the markets and lie about the truely HORRIBLE employment numbers and that they will be revised down next month just like they are every month even though the government lies about it and the media purposely fails to report it.
It's all just a conspiracy theory though right? So I must be crazy to think we have an unemployment problem that the government lies about while they continue to pay out record welfare and food stamps, deindustrialize our manufacturing base and send all jobs to China or Mexico.
Don't forget they lied about the moon landing too.
http://davesweb.cnchost.com/Apollo1.html
http://nasascam.atspace.co.uk/
FACT: In 1998, after looking at the NASASCAM webpage, world celebrity Uri Geller said that NASA's Apollo Moon pictures have been crudely faked, and asks WHY? Uri however, is friendly with Apollo 14 astronaut Edgar Mitchell, so we may ask WHY does he not ask Mitchell himself why the pictures were faked?
FACT: President Lyndon Johnson made certain Apollo files classified, with a declassification date of 2026. This is so those involved in the Apollo scam would be long dead and gone, and no one alive to blame. One need not wait 13 years for the truth behind Apollo, as the truth is already well known.
FACT: In the early 60s NASA/CIA officials, realizing that a manned Moon landing was totally impossible before 1970, met in secret behind closed doors. It was at that meeting they agreed upon a decision to fake Apollo 11, in the hope they would get to the Moon later on, and then substitute the earlier faked pictures with genuine Moon pictures. The reality is they never succeeded with any mission.
FACT: Arthur C. Clarke referred to Apollo 11 as a "Hole in History". Historian A.J.P. Taylor referred to it as "The biggest nonevent of his lifetime".
FACT: NASA had not perfected the lunar landing craft in time for Apollo 11. In 2013 they are still trying to get a rocket to land and take off again, over 44 years after Apollo was supposed to have done just that.
FACT: Film footage taken inside the capsule of ALL Apollo missions, shows a light blue haze, and curvature of Earth through capsule window, when they were supposedly half way to the Moon, and in the blackness of space. This proves that capsule was only in Earth orbit.
FACT: Moon pictures on NASA's web sites are fake, with backdrop scenes pasted. The pictures reveal a black line penciled in where background meets daylight sky, which was blacked out completely.
What haven't they lied about?
This --> My plan is to fundamentally change America.
Oh and don't forget the pet wookie...

5 And he that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And he said unto me, Write: for these words are true and faithful. 6 And he said unto me, It is done. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely. 7 He that overcometh shall inherit all things; and I will be his God, and he shall be my son. 8 But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.

your conspiritorial zeal is fed on emotion or pathos; not on logic or logos. Beware, as in the rhetorical holistic triangle of Socrates, the third element is ethos, the most important. We call it mindset. Don't let your pathos corrupt your ethos or you'll end up yelling : "Yellen I lova ya" in false logos.

And before someone says retirees caused the NILF rise only.... Men and women 16-64 no disability NILF rose to 44.4 million.... May be a new record.
For once I was in front of the pack. I dropped out three years ago. Working for the man (government in my case as I was self employed) is way over rated.
So when we finally get down to two workers employed and we hire a third, do we have a 50% improvement in employment statistics? It sounds like we will all be getting an extended vacation in a few years.
We should all send Ben a lump of coal for Xmas. No wait, make it a lump of shit. One good lump deserves another.
Not seasonally adjusted, the numbers are:
Civ. labor force -382k
NILF +831k
Participation Rate 62.9%
Emp-Pop ratio 58.5%

Its a parallel world : France has its nuts kicked like a football in a World Cup elimination contest by the bad economic numbers and the S&P junk down to 2A rating and USA has its nuts kicked by the jobs report.
Nut crackers suite being played in Paris and DC; all the while Secretary John john Kerry sings "sweet nothings" to Bibi on Iran handshake deal that MAY be in the cards in Geneva, for a nuclear stand-off 10 year freeze; by the big 6 and Ayatollah Teheran's plutonium jelly beans soup concocters.
You can hear Bibi bitching all the way to Syria and the Caucasus node of Mount Ararat, seat of Noah's ark, where even the mountain goats, like intelligent sheeple, can smell a rat in Arafat's polonium corpse.
"WHO DID DAT?" is the bleat that echoes in those dizzy heights the sounds of God's laughter, rippling like disdain of Oligarchs for advice unheeded by men gone mad on hubris.

It's worse than even you thought. Your first number should be 330 million and how many working pay no taxes? Why do they want ME to pay taxes? Just print the shit and leave me alone.
More peeps for the individual ACA Exchanges. And of course more peeps for us taxpayers to subsidize their birth control, abortions and male maternity coverage.
I see nothing wrong here. Move along folks.
Dang!
it's not relevant with the participation rate is the only thing that's relevant is that they can mislead the People into thinking that there's a recovery when their projections are so ridiculously low when a number like 205,000 comes out it looks good when in fact it's a disgrace. The Federal Reserve and Barack Obama have destroyed American economy and the people are so stupid they just don't see these liars for who they are. the recent numbers that have come out our complete fraud and a farce the gross domestic product is not growing in America in fact its contracting the labor markets are not improving in America in fact you're getting worse but they did this to prop to the dead dollar up and to not go down as an alternative to the junk bondsthat they're trying to sell abroad. it seems to me that the only economy we have is one of deception and misinformation and that will never with stand time.
The government and the Fed are the enablers simply providing the fuel. We are ones burning it to the ground. We make choices that benefit our short term interests (that coincidentally benefit the enablers) while ignoring our future and especially that of our progeny. We could all stop this tomorrow...but we won't. We rationalize that becasue everyone else is participating in the corruption we would be a fool to not as well. So keep BTFD and all the rest, trying to front run the end of times, to which TPTB are fully aware and deliberately herding us towards. No one wins in a competition like this. Simply participating ensures we all lose. We could all just stop. Yes, it would be painful for sure, but I assure you, none of us here will be winners in the end if we don't.
You're just figuring this out now? Well good morning sleeping sheep. Did uh have a nice sleep? Now welcome to the party.
Easy there, fella. Some people are waking up and smelling the coffee. And that's a good thing. We easily say that the "sheeple" are not realizing the situation, but we can't fault them when they do.
And...futures are now turning green. Glad traders are catching on to this bullshit. Any drop in the market is just a way to screw dummies at this point. I personally don't believe they will ever taper, but let's say they did. $10-15 billion is such a drop in the bucket when you can leverage the other $70-75 billion 20 times by buying futures. Not to mention it would be reversed at the very next meeting
What was the ending of Thelma and Louise again ?
It was great! Smilin big, the top down, sunny day, lots of dust, pedal to the metal. It was all very happy and warm. I don't know exactly how it ended because they stopped the movie just as the car was in midair. I think they were happy because they sure were doin a lot of laughing.
which is exactly what happens when you stick some fucking dumbass bra-burning boomer cunts behind the wheel. Of a car, of a business, of a fucking neighborhood covenent. Look at our nation, look at where you work, look at where you live and tell me it's not true.
We just got told here at work that the 1.2 billion, 3 year fuckupery of a project has to be defunded now and our business goal process restarted. But here's the tagline "Nobody did anything wrong".
Yeah, it just sorta ran itself in circles, no one was in charge or driving, apparently.
Is Janet Yellen a bra-burning boomer cunt?
Too much banker control over "our" lives.
When the Participation Rate drops to (almost) Zero and the Unemployment Rate follows it, everybody can sit at home and watch "The Working Guy", a reality show featuring the last employed person in America.
Bet you he will be a hispanic gardener in some gated golf community in Palm Springs cleaning yards for the "better people"
So as long as more people roll off unemployment insurance the unemployment rate goes down,
Shorten unmemployment inusrance to 2 weeks and watch the unemployment rate drop to under 4%.
More debt is better and higher long term unemployed is giood. What a country.

All I see are reasons to print money. This entire report is horrifying. I have no idea where they got +200k from.

"I have no idea where they got +200k from" that number was hiding under that huge hemmorhoid on the govt's ass.
Not to throw rain on any of the conspiracy theorists and/or Chicken Littles, but the US did have its highest annual birthrates since the agrarian revolution from 1946-1950. Many of those people are now at, or just reaching, retirement age. Is it any surprise that huge numbers of people are retiring and leaving the labour force? I wouldn't be surprised if many of them are 62-65 and thinking "Geez, there won't be ANY pension funds left in 3-5 years; I should retire now and get some before it's all gone. I can always go back to work when I'm 68".
yeah sure... nothing makes retiring more attractive than knowing there won't be any funds left in 5 years
Oh, there will be 'funds', you just won't have any. Funds will be reserved for TPTB and their constituencies. "It's a big club...and you ain't in it"

If anything QE should and will be going up to cover more spending.
Banks should be taking the QE money and using it to buy hidden overseas assets while the US dollar has value.
Yellen and the rest of the 12 Fed stooges will just cover up any losses and fraud. Plenty of mark to fantasy accounting, like the member banks.
I think all the furloughed workers would have counted as leaving the labor force right? In the household survey they would be coutned as unemployed and not searching for work. So next month expect to see a reversal.
The problem is, is working for the government really "work"? Or is it just conspiring to defraud the taxpayers? Let's try getting rid of the government and see how that works.
I'm with ya there hangem. It's a joke. They definitely shouldn't be allowed to unionize. I mean where on earth can you have an organization lose money every year and yet see its workers go on strike regularly for more money? Where the leadership of the organization usually will cave in and give it to them? I'll tell ya, every damn government in the western world. I'd hang em all if I could.
It's time for the lynchmobs to start hanging the traitors that sold this country out. Let the hangings begin.
won't happen even after the traitors that sold this country down the river starting hanging the populace for 'not supporting the agenda' and both political parties will support the hangings vigorously while high paid lobbyists wheel and deal for contracts for their companies to do the hangings.
Hanging is to good for them

30 years ago.
This is not good for the rest of the world. I sense some intensification of the usual warmongering to keep the peons feed, distracted and happy.
and then there is this gem-
The falling participation rate — which comes from the BLS's household survey — has helped bring the unemployment rate — which also comes from the household survey — fall during the economic recovery.
For now, the drop in the the LFPR should be seen as a temporary symptom of the shutdown and not a major shift in the labor market. Capital Economics' Paul Ashworth explains:
Apparently, the near three-week Federal government shutdown had little, if any, impact on payrolls. Manufacturing increased by a healthy 19,000, construction increased by 11,000 and retail increased by 44,000. Federal employment fell by a modest 12,000, because those workers affected by the shutdown received their back pay when they returned, which means they were counted as employed in the establishment survey.
In contrast, the alternative household survey defines employment slightly differently and, as a result, those Federal workers were not counted as employed or in the labour force. That explains the 720,000 drop in the labour force and the 735,000 decline in the household survey measure of employment. As a result, the unemployment rate ticked up to 7.3%, from 7.2%, and the participation rate plummeted to 62.8%, from 63.2%. With those Federal employees back at work now, however, all of this will be reversed in November's report.
Now, if these numbers don't reverse, then we'll actually have something to talk about.
What you get with Democrats and Bankers in charge. NY is going down the toilet... They voted in a guy who wishes to model New York City on Havana and nicaragua!!!
For some reason, perhaps the same reason that causes people to stare at a train wreck, I decided to watch some TV this morning. In between commercials I found out that there is a show called "Good Morning America". Who knew? I thought television was just one big advertisement for Bank of America.
Those of you who know me understand that I am a bit provincial in my ways and that I do not trust much of anything except gold, silver and guns. On this "Good Morning America" program I learned something new. I learned that there is such a thing as a "relationship coach" and that you can get paid to do this sort of work. I thought I was watching a funny but decided to check it out and found that it is all too real.
After my laughing fit subsided, I decided to broach the subject with Mrs. M because I think that she is a "relationship coach" with some of her friends who complain about their husbands all day long. I suggested that she start invoicing for this service of lending an ear to complaining women. Mrs. M has to put up with me so she has some level of temerity and brought up an interesting factoid.
"There is no such thing as an ugly woman if there is no shortage of vodka."
How do you even reply to a statement that is as concise as that one is?
Well, I have a reputation to uphold so I went into my office and retrieved the pair of panties she left lying on the floor last night and presented them to her.
Does this make me a "relationship coach" and could it help the employment numbers so that gold stops tanking?
No, but it could get you a free Vodka....

Sure they can be replaced, but it would take a month and cost them more than they'll steal as the thief Obama's accomplices.
A hard rain is gonna fall.
Let me get this straight, more the people stop looking for jobs, the lower is the unemployment rate.
So all we have to do is wait till no one is looking for a job because no jobs are available, then according to the current method of calculation we will have full employment. The fact that participation labor rate will go through the floor will have no consequences whatsoever on the economy.
Politicians are best at barking crap. Economic calculations and interpretations are not exactly their strong points.
The true extent of slowdown in the world economy can be judged by the data points which are not subjected to adjustments by the government. Eg. Change in Electricity and Fuel consumption, Ratio of working population to the total population of a country, Miles driven, Baltic Dry Index, Change in commercial Rental Rates etc

But then we have to taper :/ Bummer.
If women left the workforce they could find good husbands
"good husbands" - not logically following from their exit of the workforce.
The population of available men would remain unchanged, and the shrinking population of good men would be unaffected.

"At this pace the people out of the labor force will surpass the working Americans in about 4 years."
That's a joke. They already do, if you count all the million of retailers, poodlegroomers, real estate agents, salad shooter makers, nail salon operators nd crwashers...are they "productive" even when working???
Why do you hate clean poodles and salads?
Bullish! Stocks are up and unemployments headed down and that nasty employment bubble has popped.
Why should I work so that half my labor is stolen and given to Shaniqua and her 4 chillinz from foah baby daddy?
Actually,Uncle Sugar gives 95% of that half to the 1% and Shaniqua only gets 5%.
That keeps Shaniqua's chilluns out of the 1%'s villas and in their own hood.
True, I understand it, but they're encroaching. I'd have to go to Montgomery County for the 1% villas, but I hardly go down that way.

So with the oh-so pending divorce I subjected myself to a dating site. 70% of the responses I get are from single moms (gotta have someone to help take care of the little ones, and I can understand taking care of one kid that isn't mine, but 3? No thanks, maybe if I also had 3); and the other 60% are BBW who think they're average. No thanks I keep my body in shape, so you'd think I'd expect the same right? Oh, and in case you all noticed percentages that compare and contrast chart has a good bit of overlap.
just a little advice. They lie. Beware the blurry images or the "group photos". The one that looks like Carney Wilson. yeah, her, she's the one that's going to be meeting you.
But there's a silver lining... big girls try Harder! Those fat bitches will do shit that animals won't even go near.
Well, of course I don't want a real relationship right now (not for awhile) but that's probably what they want. I just want to fuck, but I guess I'll have to play the game for a bit.
I wouldn't mind shacking up with a slender single mom (of one, maybe two, but not three or four) for awhile, but something tells me they have ways of tricking decent guys like me into locking our own cages.
Good hunting brother. Now get out there and make us all proud!
Maybe people are simply tired of working for "wages" and being "employees".
Working for yourself is much more lucrative.
Oh, come on! Household survey was massively distorted by the effects of the government shutdown. Differing methodology than the establishment (i.e., payroll) survey. These moves will be retraced in coming reports (maybe all at once in November). You lose credibility when just mindlessly bang the drum about anything negative, regardless of any special factors that may be at work. Of course, you waste no time citing special factors when something positive is reported......
Want to see the full set of facts?
Author: Create and post the complete charts.
What I mean is, do not display percentages of those you consider eligible for work, but percentages of everyone. In other words, include old people (many who want to work, but cannot find jobs), plus young folks you consider too young to work, plus youngish folks you do not count because they are in college.
And if you really want to be honest, also consider everyone who works for every government to be unemployed, and everyone who works for private contractors supporting government programs.
In other words, let's see a chart of how many individuals (and what percentage of the entire population) are actually doing nominally/potentially productive work. I do believe most people would be stunned to learn how tiny that number is.
Of course, displaying charts that show how few individuals are actually doing productive work might lead to a strike of productive workers. If they only knew how few of them are supporting everyone else, who knows - maybe they'd just say no.
Incidentally, you can be sure that a huge number of doctors and medical workers will go on strike in the last quarter of this year and the first quarter of next year (and beyond).
