See, once again, you don't correct yourself, you don't limit your comment to what was said before.....you continue to go off on the tangent you created.
There is no communicating with you, you are only interested in your own meme no matter what the subject was. The subject is not Reagan, the subject is not "blaming Bush".
I am not diverting....that has been entirely your occupation. You have moved the conversation totally away from "this is the worst recovery", ignoring that as far as payroll jobs recoveries.....it is not."Your" President said in 2011 when the economic growth was 2.5% that raising taxes on anyone at this time was not a good idea but now with GDP at 1.5% it is? Keep diverting and beating the Obama drum. You made a mistake in 2008 and now will compound it in 2012.
Yet your reasoning isn't backed up by actual results and data. Could it be that your reasoning is wrong?

That's a cop-out, no one is forcing you to buy anything except Obamacare.
I did not blame Bush, and it doesn't matter what level of explanation is used, you still cannot move your comments from that obvious error. You make an error, and even after it is shown to you, you still keep repeating it.Actually the subject is unemployment rises and it did again. Here we are 3 years after the end of the recession and no better off than we were when the recession began. You want to blame Bush and ignore Obama results.
i provided facts and data for my reasoning.

Private payroll has increased significantly, the public employment austerity layoffs have still not been absorbed....and won't be by private business until demand increases, and demand won't increase until this viscous cycle is ended.
The fact is a higher percentage of adults are working today full time than there was. That is an improvement.
The thread topic is unemployment rises, True or False? Are there more unemployed this month than last month, true or false? Are there more unemployed today than when the recession began, true or false?
LOL, ok, guess those 23 million unemployed/under employed Americans aren't adult
GDP is a measure of spending, spending has been reduced because people have cut back...we have cut back because of debt and lower incomes....lowered demand is reflected in lower GDP. GDP also measures govt spending....you want lower govt spending...you get lowered GDP.At a 1.5% GDP you can make a safe bet that will not create jobs. No growth no jobs. 1.5% GDP is not enough growth to create hiring.
And I have answered that. A higher percentage of American adults are working full time than there was 2 years ago. A smaller percentage of Americans are underemployed. That is an improvement.

There are more adults working today than when?

Aw, yes, all at a cost of 5.4 trillion dollar increase in the national debt. Vs. 2 years ago shouldn't be the measurement, are we better off today as a country than when Obama took office and the answer is NO according to the results
Here let me help. My post
Jan 7 2010 we were at 63.3% FT (fulltime) and 19.4% UE (underemployed) 19.4%.
Jan 7 2011 we were at 63.7% FT and 19.2% UE
Jan 7 2012 we were at 65.2% FT and 18.3% UE
Aug 1 2012 we were at 66.6% FT and 17.1% UE
Those numbers show improvement and I think are more of an indication of job market growth and job quality.

That is not the question of the thread. Again you are quoting me but replying to something else. Focus please.
Billy, the OP made a comment, i responded, you took that response and went on your favorite tangents.The thread topic is unemployment rises, True or False?
July trends down as a seasonal event.Are there more unemployed this month than last month, true or false?
Than when the recession began....in Dec 07? Uh....that is what happens with lagging indicators...like employment....after the worst recession since 29.Are there more unemployed today than when the recession began, true or false?
GDP is a measure of spending, spending has been reduced because people have cut back...we have cut back because of debt and lower incomes....lowered demand is reflected in lower GDP. GDP also measures govt spending....you want lower govt spending...you get lowered GDP.
This is not that tough to understand.
