TOPICS: Culture/Society
KEYWORDS: layoffs
Note that I'm only tracking reported layoffs, small businesses do not fall under the WARN Act and their losses are invisible. Note also that typically business closures are reported as if no one lost a job!

In the interests of saving FR's bandwidth I'm only posting this week's raw data. I will send an Excell spread sheet of all my data to anyone who Freepmails me their addy and requests it.

I know 2 that aren't getting a paycheck this Friday. Sorry. No more free plinking ammo either.

Those numbers won't make any kind of official list, but it's real.

It'll take a crowbar to open my wallet in 2013.

Me, too. I suspect that, if enough of us behave this way, the Dear Leader will look to ban crowbars.

You should be eager to donate to the republican party’s “Defeat Obama in 2016” fundraiser...
