Nobody has ever heard of these numbers. Even I, I mean, I know they're incompetent, but I thought they were sort of riding along a little bit on what we built. With Almost 100,000 manufacturing jobs killed since the beginning of the year. 100. That's a lot. 150,000. These are all the numbers coming out of the so called government. Great government. We have 150,000Americans joined the unemployment rolls last month. (14:19–14:27)
