Buncha amateurs.
I live in Forbes list number one small city where it’s hardest to find a job.
This is the cooked number, isn’t it? Where do we see the real deal?
Don’t bother coming to Oklahoma. No jobs, no work, no money here. Nothing but cows, dirt roads, and stinky old o’l wells.
Unemployment rates rose in April for adult men (9.4 percent) and blacks (15.0 percent). The jobless rates for adult women (7.1 percent), teenagers (21.5 percent), whites (8.0 percent), and Hispanics (11.3 percent) were little changed over the month. The unemployment rate for Asians was 6.6 percent in April, not seasonally adjusted, up from 3.2 percent a year earlier.
The black unemployment rate continues to soar--up from 13.3% last month.
Not high enough.
When it hist 20% we will see people retake the nation .
I am in Galts Valley now and only buy foreign goods.
The sooner it collapses the sooner we can rebuild.
That’s a lot of potential hirees for the Obamakorps.
However, the pre-market is up.
Free cars for them in Boston.
0bamanomics in action.

And this does not even include the people that just give up.
Very interesting post/thread. BTTT!
That’s a lower number than was cut in March. It seems to be on the right trend, no?
But of course, I am sure this number is still Bush's fault even though, according to my leftist friend, he was responsible for every job loss during his presidency.
539K lost jobs and 8.9% unemployment — somehow this is called “recovery” and Dow futures are up over 100. Were Bush in office, the “media” would term this “spiraling unemployment with no end in sight.”
This is bad. Has the stimpuke helped you get a job yet?
Although I nearly went broke trying to hold on to valuable employees during recession, as a business man now I would be shedding them. The risk is just too great.
Show them the door and if things don’t pick up or get worse I’m in tolerable shape. If things get better, hire some of them back.
Large companies need to cull the dead wood while also adjusting to a near term worse case.
Please note that the previous two months of data were revised downward. Ooops!

February was revised down from -651k to -681k (-30,000) and March was revised from -663k to -699k (-36,000).
I just love how AP reported this; “Unemployment Claims go down!”, which is a way to fake good news for Obama.
