While the United states Armed Forces (private mercenaries) are stationed at 737 bases, in 130 nations around the world, defending “all freedom-loving people everywhere in the world,” the Bureau of Labor Statistics reports a 0.2%  decrease in the nation’s jobless rate even as the BLS simultaneously reports the number of U.s. subject/enemy/citizens who are jobless has increased by 11,000.

       NOTE: There is obviously something seriously wrong with an accounting method that manipulates two conflicting conclusions as legitimate.
