Don't remind me again today

According to Reuters, White House economic advisor Kevin Hassett stated that due to the 43-day federal government shutdown, the Bureau of Labor Statistics was unable to conduct household surveys, and the October U.S. employment report will only release non-farm payroll numbers, excluding the unemployment rate. He mentioned that the unemployment rate for October "may never be accurately known." Hassett also estimated that the shutdown caused an economic loss of about $15 billion per week, which could drag down the annualized GDP growth rate for the fourth quarter by about 1–1.5 percentage points, and resulted in approximately 60,000 non-federal employees losing their jobs.
