More green shoots.

Obama, Bernanke and company, gaming the numbers.

Finished/exhausted unemployment period? You are no longer counted as ‘unemployed’.

I wonder what the masses will do when their year long unemployment is cut off? Maybe they will wake up and see what they did last Nov.

There are no jobs out there. Stores are empty at night. Hope & Change.
