Great so over a million are losing their jobs each month and last month 78,000 jobs were added, half were part-time.

Time for Obama to pump up some more green jobs.

I know it seems as if it doesn’t add up, but the 1,000,000 people losing their jobs each month, is offset by 1,078,000 who found new jobs during that month, there fore the +78,000 number.

Thank you for stating the obvious! Too bad that the idiots in the media are so star struck by Obama that they are unable to do easy math.

Less than 100,000 NEW jobs are added every month in an economy that requires 250,000 new jobs monthly just to stay ahead of the new additions to the job market. However since 500,000 plus people drop out of the job market monthly, there is a drop in the Unemployment Rate. Add to that the massive mount of early retirees and people jumping onto disability and we find out that we have fewer people actually working today than we did years ago!

This is a disaster and we have been ill served by the fourth estate as to how we can stop it and why we are slipping into third world status.
