This is a no-brainer, and not “unexpected”. The country is broke. Obama and the Dems continue a fiscal orgy. The FedGov is sucking all the oxygen out of the economy.

My friend just closed her tanning salon that was making an 8% profit. She can't fund the new 10% federal tax. She let her 8 employees go. They are boarding up the shop and putting the tanning beds up for sale on e-bay.

FUBO

Just wait till the drilling moratorium kicks in.

A guy I know that worked, and I say worked, as a drug rep was laid off last month, though might still be technically on the payroll till August. 6 out of 9 people in the area got axed from that company.

Initial claims for unemployment benefits rose for the second time in three weeks last week. The potential rise in layoffs comes as Congress remains stuck at an impasse over extending federal jobless aid.

Notice how AP - All Propaganda (all the time) immediately shifts focus to an unrelated issue, mainly an umpteenth extension of increased federal deficit spending to extend free money to the jobless who have already been receiving government payments for years, which of course in no way affects those who are filing claims for the first time. Nonetheless, AP leaves you with the impression that without this extension the newly unemployed are somehow screwed (by those heartless and evil Republicans in the Senate).

All Propaganda then goes on to blame the "unexpected" increase in the newly unemployed on the expiration of another federal giveaway funded by borrowed money:

Greater layoffs by construction firms fueled the increase, a Labor Department analyst said. Home sales and construction slumped in May after the expiration of a popular homebuyer tax credit.
The implication here is that the employment situation would be just hunky-dory if only that sweet, sweet, sweet "popular" homebuyer giveaway hadn't "expired". No mention that it was temporary in the first place.

Man, don't you just love the objective "journalism" service performed by our indispensable professional "journalists". No doubt, Western civilization as we know it will cease to exist with the impending collapse of the main stream media. And if "as we know it" refers to the destruction of the Fourth Estate as the propaganda organ for the DNC, then, why hell, that's a good thing, isn't it?

Well, not a total failure.

I am told seasonal employment at golf courses (especially around DC) is on a record pace.

I guess the increase in new unemployment claims will translate into lower unemployment.

Yeah...and at least the rate isn't 13, 14 or 15 Percent!
