You celebrate people being too depressed to even look for work?
Don't answer. That was a rhetorical question. I already know that you do.
I celebrate 147,000 new jobs
Did you celebrate when Bush was losing 770,000 jobs a month?
When he took office in Jan, 2001 there were 135,999,000 employed. When he left office his last full month, Dec., 2008 143,338,000 were employed. That was a gain of 7 million, 339 thousand jobs. Today, 4 years later under Obama employment is at 143,262,000, a net loss of 76,000 jobs since Obama took office 4 years ago.
Are you using current data? I thought the number had finally turned into a net gain a couple of months ago.
