Unemployment in the St. Louis region topped ten percent in September — the first time in over 26 years that joblessness in the area has reached into double figures.

Hey. Imagine what it would have been if we wouldn’t have passed the stimulus package.This was totally unexpected.
That is the most “Blue” area in Missouri.
How’s that Hope and Change working out for you people in St Louis?
Don’t worry - they’ll raise your taxes and fix it. :)
Small business owners will lay off employees and just bring in their family to make up for lost production.
Considering how Obama intends to pay for Stimulus I/II, I can’t say as I blame them. I sure as hell wouldn’t want to pay all those taxes just to fund child prostitution outfits (i.e. Acorn).
Hope. Change.
Where’s the jobs, Barry?
(oh yeah, keep distracting them with that ‘healthcare’ thing - they can’t figure it out - yet)
While you fiddle, Rome burns with the loss of jobs. Your political chickens will come home to roost and your approval ratings will plummet.
Meanwhile, great job St. Louis, helping to elect this inexperienced poser clown.
How’s that hopey-changey thing working out for ya?
the misery index is still about 8%, with 22% 1980 high. But then inflation is still being kept artificially low with borrowing.

There are some of us that are red state types here in the St. Louis region. You can thank St. Louis County and St. Louis City for their mindless love affair with taxes and anti-business attitudes...

Most but not all, of the relatively small St. Louis city area, perhaps. As well as certain Jewish and black areas of the county.
Much of the remainder of the surrounding Metroplex is as red as any area of the country.

Indeed.
But you can direct your congratulations for electing the Race Marxist, to nearly ANY American urban area.
St Louis unemployment rate:
September 2008 6.9%
September 2009 10.2%
Gotta’ be Bush’s fault for keeping the unemployment rate artificially low...

We ain’t seen nothing yet. Obamao’s Cateresque approach to economic destruction is going to screw over Americans in ways not imagined since Carter. It’s entirely predictable.
No doubt about that. The awakening will be a rude one, indeed.
I just hope we can survive it. America could be totally wrecked by 2012, financially.
Is it just me or does St. Louis look like a nasty ghetto city to the rest of you also?
Where's your Messiah now?
It's stuff like this that gives conservatives a bad name. Expecting Obama to actually make a decision on sending more troops, creating JOBS, boosting the economy, NUKES, health care.../s
Can't you see he is OVER HIS HEAD AND DOESN'T HAVE A DAMN CLUE?!!!
It is honestly so scary to think of what we have in the White House that I must block it from my mind or completely go berserk!

Parts of it are. But that is a limited area of the relatively small city itself, and has nothing to do with most of the much larger surrounding suburban areas.
No different than dozens of other American cities.
Many of the race and class warfare ignoramuses in that crowd were bussed in from other areas of the country.
Not that we don’t have plenty of stupidity here locally....
The really, really nasty ghetto city is just to the east, over the Mississippi river.
The recession is over, the government says so.

I live in the city in “The Hill” neighborhood. It’s the Little Italy of St. Louis and is really a small town in the middle of a city. It’s clean, safe and I love it here. Unfortunately that can’t be said for all the neighborhoods in St. Louis but there are some really great ones.
It’s getting worse, much worse. Many small businesses in our city have close or in deep trouble.
