Simple analysis of the jobs situation. A lot of companies cleared the books for three years of as much labor as they could to survive. 2012 budgets included a couple new hires, and did not account for new layoffs. Now, 2012 is settling in, and the economy is still on life support. Hiring is slowing and some companies are now letting people go again as the numbers look worse than expected.

yup, sony announce 10,000 lay offs, Yahoo cutting 15% of staff, banks slashing to hell, if the big companies are slashing to ribbons then you can be guaranteed, the small companies cannot afford the staff either and its only going to get worse.

I expect that the big multinationals are moving more jobs and positions out of the country for many reasons I imagine, the biggest is to shield the companies assets away from confiscatory taxation they see coming down the pike at them.

On the other hand the Book “The Hunger Games” is beginning to look more and more prophetic as the days go by under this Regime.

After a while, the books have to be taken out of the oven .. you can cook them only so long.

Then you blame the stove, the oven, the oven manufacturer, etc.
