The last time you were talking about the economy and unemployment you were talking about how your business couldn't get meaningful work and that illegal immigrants were doing it all.
The stock market is only good if you're in it. Millions of Americans were forced to cash out and withdraw down on their "stock market" to pay for perhaps a job loss, or mortgage. Not everyone is a venture capitalist.
As for the unemployment numbers...Liars always figure and Figures never lie...it would be nice if they actually held to the same equation without semantics.
The media only reports on U3 so, you can only imagine. No?

Lotsa other good data...like what? I'd already mentioned home starts...how are those? The President has already stated the recovery is 2 years away. He's had more than 3! He is worse than what I had imagined. Inexperienced beyond all compare. The only thing he's good at is throwing taxpaying dollars at black holes like bankrupt car companies, green technologies that don't pay off ROI, giving banks money to lend and growing the government sector worse than Herbert Hoover!
Glass half full kinda guy...awesome if it's something other than the kool-aid.
