These are seasonal workers. Right now, all those "jobs" are gone.

These reports are jokes. Its like the monthly report on how many boots got produced in Oceania. Completely fabricated, or at least heavily edited.

Here's a good link that goes into the divergence we all see between what we see around the country with our own eyes and what numbers the the BLS (Bureau of Lies and Scams) generates.

Market-Ticker

The charts taken from the .gov's own numbers show how by massaging the labor participation rate you can actually show a lower unemployment rate even though there are fewer people working.

I personally view any BLS statistics as noise. People still trade on the news, but I don't think anyone with any sense pays attention to the headline numbers other than for a quick trade. I pay more attention to the labor participation rate and U-6.

Your are very much in the right here, government jobs are paid mostly with tax payer generated income for the government so is just transfer of taxable income into government salaries, is an exchange, you are also right is not production of goods to be exchange for income, so It is a big lost.

Here are some Agencies I think have for more Credibility Than Any Obama Agency.
I was going to was this site Real unemployment rate higher than federal figures - MSN Money ...
But when you go there,,,, They've Pulled That Story,,,,, I wonder Why,,, Didn't Want To Offend The White House?
money.msn.com...=New Investor Center

So lets move on to sites and agencies that have Some Gonads, Shall We?
Now these People Here, I think have a better grasp of the real numbers,,, Real U.S. Unemployment Rate is 15.6 Percent, says the American Enterprise Institute
Here is a little of their article:
According to official figures released by the U.S. government, unemployment rates in the country are hovering around 8.6 percent. However, the American Enterprise Institute (AEI) suggests that a better measure of the real jobless rate -the U-6 - stands at 15.6 percent.

Why You Ask?
According to the AEI, the official rate excludes workers who have decided to drop out of the labor market altogether, either because they are discouraged or for other reasons. This rate also ignores workers who settle for part-time work because they are unable to find a full-time job.
