After Training, Still Scrambling for Employment

from the NY Times

Read the horror stories of unemployed workers going back to school for retraining, taking on huge educational loans, and then facing more unemployment. Contrast these stories with government reports that retraining is working just fine. 

Having been employed for about five years in two state agencies, I have seen first hand how government agencies lie about statistics when it is in their interest to do so. 

Governments lies are always about protecting the interests of their managers and overseers--the ruling capitalist elites.
