Like watching the spread of a plague.

Yep...it’s ugly.

Why is Larry Kudlow so adamant that the economy is much better and telling his audience that the jobs situation is greatly improved?

[Dogbert41]

How come I haven’t seen this on CNN, ABC, CBS, or NBC? Haven’t even seen this on FOX...

And these counties are both low population and low unemployment because just about every household remaining there is on the land and largely self-supporting.

I think the self supporting types on the farms owe a bit to FARM SUBSIDIES. Lets see the map minus farm subsidies and see how it looks.

THey are going to need more colors. The colors stop at ten percent. To keep the graphic up to date and relevant, they will need at least two more colors.

Interesting to note that the job situation in Washington DC is a bright island in a sea of darkness.

Gubmint jobs anyone?

[Paraclete]

Note that the only area not changeing is the sparsely populated Great Plains. There were few jobs there to begin with.

The High Plains are not hospitable to corporate farming or subsidies harvest. Save your disdain for where it is due.

Looks like Amidon, North Dakota is the place to move.

There is another aspect ot your observations, those who are self employed never show up on the unemployment rolls.

Even if they are ‘out of work’.

[ProtectOurFreedom]

I saw that, too. I figure that the unemployment rate is zero because the population must be zero, too.

[tbw2]

All the jobs are filled and those needing work have already left.

[ProtectOurFreedom]

Not far off! Amidon, the county seat, has a population of 26. All of Slope County has 767 people.

I received an e-mail depicting the difference in Argentina in 1901 and now. The fall of that country is taking place here, now.
