Quote from: K-Dog on Mar 19, 2025, 05:59 PMThe first step in selling this snake oil is to make everyone think they are being left behind, and the Trump machine now runs this asset:

https://www.bls.gov/  Nothing from official sources can be believed now.

Trump became King Trumpster on January 20. The report from BLS I quoted was released on January 22.

Is it more reasonable that a government report, undoubtedly weeks if not months in the making, was just another governmnet report, or that Trumpster had a hard on for perpetrating lies across so many government reports at once he demanded blanket lying before he even had personnel installed to issue the orders to do the lying, or did some highly focused lying, or targeted only a few reports, and had a boner over THIS one?

Maybe about now you can't believe the BLS, but 2 days after he took over? Seems unlikely.

I went back and looked at the link.  I can't verify your date.  Anyway it does not matter.  The date can be faked.  We live in a digital age of misinformation where in the blink of an eye reality can be re-written.

So it would not matter if your date is there or not, which I could not find.  It proves nothing.

That would explain the twins and triplets.  Use of fertility drugs increases the likelihood of multiple births.

Mrs. Dog got wind of it and is looking for info.  Seems the baby mamas all had to be artificially inseminated and are sworn to secrecy.  If they squeal they loose the money.  So not a full woman exactly, but something that needs the help of modern medicine to propagate its superior genes.  Perhaps it lays eggs?

All photos are links, Perhaps Instagram could host your photos?

Tough audience.. 'elongate' means to stretch out to form a shape of extended parallelogram

Ill come clean.. sorry couldn't resist that. I don't know anything about DOGE other than these 3 things:

1 what the acronym stands for

2 federal workers were asked to name 5 tasks

3 they claim to have found people over 120 yrs old drawing a salary

As I see it, federal govt workers would have a lot of benefits and entitlements accrued, with big packages to be paid out. That is going to be part of each depts budget, which they definitely don't have on hand. The Superannuation funds which will almost certainly be a fed govt one most choose with lower fees than other funds would also go under if they have to pay out too many ppl

Quote from: K-Dog on Mar 19, 2025, 05:59 PMA median wage of 30 an hour at this time if bullshit.  Next year if we have Argentinian inflation the median wage could be a lot higher.  So far we have not had enough inflation to justify the reality of such an increase.

Average is believable, but not median.  Somebody did a switcheroo.  Or there is cherry picking.  Serious cherry picking.

Due to inflation, the median income is rising, and precisely where it falls doesn't tell us much.  You get a better sense of the problem looking at the distribution chart.  Most recent I found is from 2023.



The median gets skewed upwards because that last bar actually rises 4X as high as as the next highest bar.  This disparity has been steadily increasing since the 70s.  You can see the change from this comparative chart.



Using my rule of thumb, practically speaking people in the Investor Class with stock portfolios come from the blue and purple  bars in the first chart.  For people in the green area, thheir main asset wealth is in real state, the McMansion they live in.  Yellow and beige people struggle to meet their bills and have no savings.  Mostly renters.

Here is what the BLS might have reported six months ago.  Before the most dishonest man in America took it over.

Real hourly wage (2024$)

A very nifty graph.  With a median value of $24.75.  My $25 was close, but a bit high.  Close because I know what the fuck I am talking about.

62K a year puts you in the 90th percentile.

Your data works out to a thirty dollar an hour median wage.  Something is rotten, and this is not Denmark.  Last year the median wage was only a bit over 25 an hour.

Who would want to make things look better than they really are?  Do we have any suspects?

https://www.bls.gov/  Nothing from official sources can be believed now.  Not that official sources were trustworthy before.  But now the situation is clarified.  The sheep will of course take the official word as god given.  Trump never liked the press.  Now he owns it.
