"The job market is worse than it ever has been."

That is pure BS, but assuming it was true:

That couldn't have anything to do with the fact that half the citizens of Mexico are employed here while a chunk of our jobs have gone to Mexico-could it?

Have you two economic experts been looking for jobs lately? I have and the market is saturated with qualified people. Two years ago people were calling me at work offering me jobs. I decided to look around for some other opportunities a few months ago (after I looked at my company's real numbers, it wasn't pretty). People that were calling me in 2000 are laying off. Maybe the local economy is good where you are but it sucks here.

Hell, the GOVERNMENT is laying off here!
