Mobile Broadcast News — Wed, 25 Jan 2012 19:43:40 +0000

Austin activism in 2011 saw an upsurge in activity throughout the year with the mantra of change in the air. With the revolutions in the Arab world acting as a spark, people lit the fire that was once at the heart of social change in America. Activists for human rights involved in a whole rage of issues joined forces to fight the system of injustice seen all across the United States and the world. With the start of the Occupy Wall St. movement in New York, solidarity actions sprung up all across the world with Austin joining the movement on Oct. 6th. Issues addressed in this 2011 review include: war, civil liberties, immigrant rights, workers rights, global revolution, the Palestinian liberation struggle, feminist critique of pornography and the occupy movement. This is a Austin Indymedia/ZGraphix co-production. Produced by the Austin Indymedia Team.

Occupy 4 Jobs: "All They Want from Us is Work, and Lay-Offs, Lay-Offs, Lay-Offs!"

Mobile Broadcast News — Tue, 17 Jan 2012 00:44:06 +0000

	Occupy 4 Jobs: "All They Want from Us is Work, and Lay-Offs, Lay-Offs, Lay-Offs!" New York City, January 16--Occupy 4 Jobs holds a 1pm rally at Union Square. The Bureau of Labor Statistics recently reported the December, 2011 employment/unemployment data. Official unemployment dropped from 8.65% in November to 8.51% in December. The civilian labor force, however, declined from 153937000 to 153887000 which is a loss of 50000. ...the civilian labor force should increase each month due to population increase. The loss, therefore, of 50000 indicates continuing problems. Official unemployment dropped from 13323000 to 13097000. That is a drop in unemployment of 226000. Did those dropped all end up employed? No. The official "Not in the Labor Force" category increased from 86503000 to 86697000. That is an increase of 194000 in the month of December. While some of the increase is due to retirements and other natural increases, this figure is more than double what it should be. Some of the increase can be assumed to come from the unemployed being dropped from the labor force entirely. This is not to say that these seasonally adjusted numbers do not imply some slight improvement in employment. They do. Here's my calculated estimate of the "REAL" unemployment situation, based upon the seasonally adjusted figures published by the BLS: The real unemployment rate had a peak in July, 2011 of 18.28%. It then dropped to 18.14% in August, to 17.94% in September, to 17.82% in October, to 17.47% in November and to 17.29% in December.
