LOL.... who lied more probably depends MOSTLY on who's doing the "fact checking" than what was actually said in the debate. IMO, I bet they were pretty close to each other in terms of the number of inaccuracies.Quote:

Yeah, I will have to take a long hard look at Johnson prior to casting my vote... ultimately the guy won't get elected but it's always best IMO to vote for the best available candidate regardless of his chances of getting electing.
Google the reddit Gary Johnson AMA's. There are graphs in there where he answers many of the important stuff himself.Quote:

Might want to look a little deeper into why it's falling... might not be what you think.
There's a report that says that this particular month, it's not only because of people leaving the job market. There are new jobs and there are new people coming into the market as well.Quote:

I read they were inflating numbers, so don't be fooled. I would look more into it.Quote:

No longer looking for work has been controversial of course. But the other factors of individuals they don't include is routine and appropriate. One way or another this is a more 'positive' number then we've seen before. Providing nothing dirty about it gets unearthed in the coming days anyway.
There is nothing dirty about the unemployment rate rising or falling. Its perfectly normal. Next month it may go up.Quote:

At the moment I don't see much of that going on, so it is good so far.
