Unemployment up because more people are looking for work.

U.S. Gains 215K Jobs In March, Unemployment Rises To 5 Pct.

That is the fifth time in the past six months that the proportion of Americans working or looking for work has increased, an encouraging trend after that figure fell to four-decade lows last year.

The increase in the work force "has been truly astounding - the strongest in over two decades, suggesting that the job market is finally pulling discouraged workers off the sidelines," said James Marple, an economist at TD Economics.

Americans appear to be pocketing much of their savings from lower gas prices rather than spending them. The savings rate rose to 5.4 percent in February, the highest in a year.

And it took Republicans only one ginormous tax cut to ruin it. Their damage was that bad. Just the fact it lasted so many years explains their damage.

Instead instead of cutting taxes we should be stimulating the economy by building infrastructure these Govt. Employees would be spending their money. This would create even more jobs starting a snowball economic effect. We should get this money by adjusting taxes up on the wealthy.
