Did you read your own graph?
The graph shows job losses. We had a small increase in the number of job losses this month. the rate of loss increase is slower than at the beginning of the recession, but with an effective unemployment rate of 22%, there really aren't that many more jobs to lose.
We were promised back when the stimulus package first passed that unemployment would stay under 8%. It has been over 9 for I don't know how long. And huge numbers of those 9% have seen their benefits expire, as did mine.
Since December of 2007, a year into the Pelosi/Reid congress we saw a collapse in employment, and while the collapse is slower, it continues
I DID read my own graph. Can you not see that we are losing less jobs than when Obama took office? Do you not see the light at the end of the tunnel. Making some assumptions, you can continue to chart this trend and see we will move into positive territory very soon. Did Obama miss the mark on his 8%? Of course he did. Do I blame him? For being naive and perhaps a little overzealous? Sure. Do I want to throw him out of office for it? No.
Question for you. What, specifically did Reid and/or Pelosi do to cause this tumble job losses?
