Obama's Budget Cuts

[firstdown]

Unemployment went up last month from 9.7 to 9.9 and that chart does very little to show the whole picture. This link is much better and I wish it looked better but unemployment is still very high. Also I think each time they extend unemployment they are just allowing more people to sit around a few more months.

yuo really believe that people are sitting on their behinds and don't wanna work? What happens when the unemployemnt stops and they can't pay their bills. Blame Obama people are homeless, I can hear it now. Sorry bankers, you made this mess now you gonna help feed the people you manipulated and deceived.

Picking up all those lost jobs is going to take a long time (real unemployment/underemployment is almost 20%) but the fact remains that things are getting better. Just last week a buddy of mine who has been unemployed for almost a year got two job offers and a request for second interview on the same day (I know for sure Boeing, Google and GE are hiring again).
