Why flood the job market with illegal aliens, of course. I'm sure the unions will be thrilled.
From the LVRJ: There's the unemployment rate, and then there's the unemployment rate.
The official number comes out every month, and hovers these days at around 10 percent statewide and 8 percent nationally. Those rates are down from respective recession peaks of roughly 14 percent and 10 percent.
But federal officials on Monday released a more detailed analysis showing Nevada's jobs recovery remains noticeably shakier than the official rate shows, and that's affecting overall economic health in subtle ways, local experts said.
The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics crunched new unemployment figures that include discouraged workers who have stopped looking for jobs, as well as underemployed part-timers who would prefer full-time positions. Their finding: Nevada's broader jobless rate, called the U-6 rate, averaged 20.3 percent in 2012, compared with an annual average of 11 percent in the official rate, which strictly counts unemployed people who are actively looking for work.
The higher U-6 rate reflects a shadow supply of jobless workers who don't show up in routine numbers, said Steve Brown, director of the Center for Business and Economic Research at UNLV. http://www.lvrj.com/business/new-statistics-show-nevada-s-effective-jobless-rate-is-20-3-percent-188884721.html
Meanwhile, Obama came to Las Vegas to canoodle his mistress and had a little extra time to give a speech in front of a bunch of illegals and liberals. Poor Del Sol High school, their campus was overrun by foul smelling pot smoking liberals and people who enjoy breaking the law.
And then there was the audience.
