Without jobs there is no recovery. How can there be any when they are being outsourced?

"Without jobs"?  Today's news also included word of 29,000 new jobs being created in the past 2 weeks.  This month's unemployment rate is lower than last months.  Dubya's first term unemployment was lower than Clintons.  Yet the lamestream press and the Patsies are whining -- go figure!

You have misinterpreted the data. The report is that 29,000 fewer people than week lost their jobs, or you could think of it as 29,000 more people kept the jobs they had.

But to say 29,000 new jobs were created, and further that 29,000 people were hired into those new jobs is false. This weekly report only covers UI claims for people who lost their jobs (layoffs).
