The April Overall Workweek is also up 0.2 Hour to 33.9 Hours and Average Hourly Earnings increased $0.05 to $16.00. That is likely to translate into an even greater surge in new jobs going forward. Outstanding news for the USA, bad news for DemocRATS.

I read today that Britain's unemployment is lower most other countries in Europe. Also, it's growth rate is supposedly better. Anyone know how those figures compare to the U.S.?

[ElectricStrawberry]

...and, as with every other month....I'm sure they were "higher than expected." Didn't you know that Bush's economy is in the crapper?

[johnb838]

Yeah, well the economy obly expanded at an annualized rate of 3.1%, the slowest rate of expansion in three years. Put that in your pipe and smoke it!

The Bush boom continues!

Over 90% of this increase is due to the Birth/Death Model.
