that's OK rickn .. I won't hold showing your ignorance against you
economics is not Fox news .. hard economic data has nothing to do with party affiliation or what you think of pot ...
Absolutely agree 100%...but very often, "hard" data is not. It's been proven time and time again that the folks in control, of either party, can and will stroke data to produce the image they want to portray. Unemployment data is just one such number that frequently gets adjusted and manipulated. (not passing judgement on the article either way, just pointing out that "data" often doesn't equal "fact" or "truth" when dealing with hot topic issues like unemployment and the economy)
