And where is it done? At job/employement centers?
Where do people stop going when they still have no job and are not required to go to one because their unemployment ran out?

Let alone being able to afford to get to one


It's a matter of where they get the sampleset and how they interact with them based on the sampleset's attributes.

Yet where is that woman now? Tell me, in what heave does she reside? None of them. Because no God bothered to listen or care. If that is what you think it means to be a God, then you and all your teachings are welcome to do as that poor women did. And vanish from these realms forever.
I'm starting to feel that we won't get what we want from the DNC chair election. Keith will lose and we'll have to wait to get our own Trump to hijack the policy to true leftism.

Republicans were dumb enough to repeal them. We need to do the same. We lost an election due to them. How hard could it be to force people to repeal them? Put the fire to their feet! Form our own tea party!

Wikileaks: "The Obama administration is leaking information! This is bad!"

And people wonder why the left turned on wikileaks. Maybe because it is clearly a Russian tool now against America.

Bernie might have won, but polls conducted before the massive finely tuned right-wing smear machine turned its gaze onto Bernie instead of concern trolling in his favor are even less reliable than the actual election polling.

Also, Bernie wouldn't have won the primaries even if Brasile didn't leak like 3 debate questions. The process should have been more transparent, but it was never close enough to be thrown in Clinton's favor by the DNC.

Well that's only really assuming they reach everyone they hope and intend to.
Which is unrealistic

Ignoring that it still goes back to then why does the media report the lower number of not really unemployed people if that's not the real number since there's a number higher in the same report?

I'm assuming this is a reference to the latest last-ditch effort of some congressional Democrats to challenge the Electoral College victory (on the grounds that some electors were seated improperly or something, I'm barely paying attention to it).

Because of course Bernie Sanders should be devoting his time and energy to stupid bullshit longshot stunts that wouldn't even accomplish anything even if they succeeded.

there is no such thing as a "real unemployment" number, there are just different definitions of "unemployment." u-6 is a broader measurement (i.e. it counts more people as unemployed) but it isn't more "real" because it's higher - it's just a different measurement, useful for different functions. u-3 is a good measurement to use if you just want to know if people have jobs, and u-6 is a good indicator of job quality.

Ellison was involved in the sit-in too. I'm not aware he's anything to do with this; most of what I've seen out of him over the past few days is to do with "you know, taking away peoples' health insurance is actually a bad thing".
