Some Pretend Good News
It seems there is finally “good news”! All of the compassionate conservative’s and progressive liberal’s big spending finally is really reaping rewards. New jobless claims fell to only 550,000. Thanks to all the savioring of our beloved politicians only half a MILLION Americans are loosing their jobs every month. Good work Geithner, Bush, Obama, Dodd, Paulson, et al. thanks for all your help.
On the jobs front, the Labor Department said initial claims for unemployment insurance fell to a seasonally adjusted 550,000 from an upwardly revised 576,000 in the previous week. The number of people continuing to receive benefits fell by 159,000 to nearly 6.1 million, the lowest level since early April.
via The Associated Press: Trade, jobless claims figures show recession fades.
Us American’s really appreciate the fact that now for 35 months straight new jobless claims have top 500,000 mark. At this rate another 2 years from now the rate might actually dip below the half a million mark. Usually people look at the the results of their work to determine if they’re doing any good. Not American politicians they look at the words they speak if they say loosing 500,000 jobs is a good thing then it is a good thing. So, hooray only 500,000 jobs were lost this month.
Yet, I don’t feel happy? And why do I get an ominous feeling?
