There are so many able bodied— used to be workers — on Socialo Security disability now that we cannot keep up with them.

"Americans filing new claims for jobless benefits rose last week, signaling little improvement....applications for unemployment insurance payments increased by 4,000....That's the highest level in two months....The four-week moving average rose by 2,750.

Let me see if I understand liberal reporting:
New Claims go up
Highest in two months
Moving average, a better measure, goes up

This signals "little improvement"? I'd sure hate to see what "signals" getting worse!

Job gains are of great importance, because they lead to income growth

No way!

Last night we were at a great dinner with a sell out crowd at a 3 year old 5 star restaurant.

Another fine restaurant in the same area was slammed.

However, when we walked from the parking garage to the restaurant, the other businesses in the same area were without customers or closed at 6 pm.

On the way back to the garage, I commented about the two differences.

A lady in our party has a new job with an Aussie company in what used to be a busy office/warehouse complex by our airport. She said that most of the offices and warehouses in that complex were closed and had been for at least a year and some since the melt down. Every restaurant/café/store in that area/comples was closed. The only food service was a Taco truck that came each noon hour. One of her Aussie bosses said this scene was replicated up and down our west coast.

Hundreds of people worked in that area before our financial meltdown. Now, the county jail, and the Aussie corporation are the only open places.
