Well "new" jobless claims finally broke under 600,000 this past week to "only" 565,000. The 4 week moving average is still at 606,000. Although, the critics were saying that it may have been less layoffs and some temporary highering for the holiday weekend. Guess we will see next we if there is a trend building. I hope so for those that need a job and want to work.

I still say it is so sad the money that was spend and after 6 months we are still not seeing any meaningful improvement.

In my office building there is a food court underground that connects 3 buildings together. In the last month, 3 restaurants have closed up. More jobs lost, more tax revenue lost locally and at the federal level.

What is it that Obama does not understand about tax cuts and incentives to small business that actually does create jobs.

This is suppose to be the party that cares more about the "little guy" yet their policies hurt them more. Unless you count more government hand outs as benefiting. But I would think if given a choice between a hand out and a job, they would want the job.
