On The Margin: Total Unemployment July + Envisioning Employment Aug+ Recovery-less Recovery: Unemployment Duration Aug + Full Time Workers Fully Under Pressure: August

[mEDITate-OR:
be oblivious to the striking differences between Bill@CR and Dan@Atlantic
and Over the Top @ PE.
Each has a very, often unique view of the same data
and that each gives U.S. very different insights.
---------
OtTop looks more at the total picture...
favoring U-6 data over the very narrow U-3
and
as you will see in the post below
the Food Stamp consequences of "being unemployed".
-------
This does NOT mean that Bill@CR does not see the seriousness of our little predicament...
you only have to read his comments in his articles this month to see that...
but, he is trying very hard to BE objective with his charts.
------
Dan@Atlantic points to his own point of view, with is usually very accurate.
----------
OtTop is a wee skoshi bit more opinionated.
Not at all wrong, but much more pointed.
One might call him "more colorful"...
might one not!
