Since the media has spent the last six years ignoring the decline of the American workforce, and writing comically lunkheaded propaganda stories about how the unemployment picture improved when it was actually people giving up altogether and dropping out of the game, it seems appropriate to switch gears and applaud the small signs of life....

And, let me note, this was an instance where Boehner did NOT give Obama another extension of unemployment benefits.
Soon to end. For every 100 illegals entering the workforce, 65 American employees are displaced.
Since 2000, the biggest job growth has been illegal Invaders, and legal green card holders.
My step daughter got out of her dead end job as the single IT do every thing, just before the economy went bust, started her own business, with every one laying off their IT departments, her boomed and is doing so well she needs part time help, and has to farm out a few projects that do not fall to her expertise. Built her business on great customer service and good pricing, she even recommends free software when it is a useful fit for her clients.
To me, this is the number we should be focusing on.
If only 62.9% of working age Americans are working, that means the real unemployment rate is something like 37.1%.
That's disgraceful.
If there’s any wind at all, the Democrats will break it.
Wind in the sails? Nobody is blowing me.
And Captain Ahab Obama is still obsessed with harpooning the Great White Whale.
