The United States Unemployment Rate By Year
Look at when it jumped big time. UNDER OBAMA!
Yeah, it's all Bush. Keep running with that liberals. Tuesday is coming!
I did say final year didn't I? Here you go.
NEW YORK (CNNMoney.com) -- The hemorrhaging of American jobs accelerated at a record pace at the end of 2008, bringing the year's total job losses to 2.6 million or the highest level in more than six decades.
A sobering U.S. Labor Department jobs report Friday showed the economy lost 524,000 jobs in December and 1.9 million in the year's final four months, after the credit crisis began in September.
The unemployment rate rose to 7.2% last month from 6.7% in November - its highest rate since January 1993.
The steep annual drop in jobs marked the highest yearly job-loss total since 1945, the year in which World War II ended.
Total 2008 job loss: 2.6 million - Jan. 9, 2009
That was 2.6 million job lost in the last year of the Bush Presidency.
But Barack had already won the presidency so of course the rabid righties have to blame him.
Yeah, that explains the total year being 5.76, whereas the NEXT year is almost TWICE THAT.
Yeah keep this up liberals. Wonder why the country isn't voting Democrats. Oooooooooooooo, let me think.
