Is this the part you're asking after, philby?



""" "The idea that the employment is holding as well as it is in the face of the fiscal headwinds the economy is currently enduring is a very positive sign of the economy's underlying fundamental improvements," said Russell Price, senior economist at Ameriprise Financial Services in Troy, Michigan.

I'll give you a hint.
It has to do with Obamacare.

Oh, I get it....when Obamacare kicks in....so many people are going to die from it, the employers will need to have a large staff so the die-off doesn't hurt their business???

:laugh:
 
Its simple.
There will be so many people getting 29 hours a week that employers will and have been hiring to make up the 11 hours that are being missed.

thats not a bad theory - i think its likely to be correct.

the move to part timers means more workers, less benefits.

a related explanation - businesses, instead of hiring direct employees, are outsourcing to (domestic, american based) contractors. you know "accountemps", contract programmers; contract copywriters; etc. You don't have to provide benefits to contractors - they're supposed to purchase health insurance themselves from their wages.

and that will be good time when even rabid economically illiterate RWingers realize that employment based health care is BS and we will need the system resembling all other industrialized nations have
 
We'll get there eventually. We just have to work around the deadwood.

Yeah, I worked for a company that did that back in the '90s until some genius in the accounting department figured out that the contract workers were for the most part about 1/2 as productive as the regular employees. They hired some of the folks away from the contractor and were amazed how much their productivity went up. That ended the use of contract workers.

Philby says that unemployment is going down, because employers are hiring more. Philby's one clever dude.

Pretty fair assessment.

Its like as seen on TV says.

people getting more than 30 hours a week are now finding themselves getting
28 and 29 hours a week.
I see several examples already right here where I live.
A convienience store here with over 75 employees cut 60 employess to 27/28 hours.
They were getting OVER 40 hours.
The chain hires another 10/15 at the same hours,to pick up the slack.
Waa laa.
Dont have to pay health insurance.
So, they get fined 2kper.
Hell of a lot cheaper that paying for 75 employees heath coverage.
