Prediction:
Haven't read the article yet but something tells me all these "jobs" will be in the government sector.
That would be the only thing that would make sense.

Governemnt jobs or public jobs? It seems teachers are being layed off, city workers as well, at least in CA. everyone here knows they lie about everything, so i find this news questionable.

Does this take into account the job lost also? Or just the number of people who get jobs. The article is very skewed and political in nature.

Here's the problem... The unemployment rate is still going up. That's not a gain.

Yes it still is going up. That brings up another point of deception. When you hear that the unemployment claims have gone down for the forth straight month, what it means is first time unemployment claims. That has nothing to do with weather or not jobs have been created or lost. Or the total number of people on unemployment. Which list I heard is still above nine percent.

And if Bush printed useless money by the trillions and dump it into the economy, same thing would happened under his 2 terms.

But the truth is the economy has not really gained any jobs in the last four months, most of the hundreds of thousands of people who found jobs during this time, were in fact hired as temporary workers by the Department of Commerce to work on the 2010 Census.

If you took out those temporary jobs, which are in fact temporary we would have continued to have net losses in employment each month this year, instead of slight gains.

Since it was Benjamin Franklin, John Adams, and John Jay who agreed to a Census every ten years to be mandated into the Constitution as part of the Treaty of Paris that concluded the Revolutionary War, whose terms were in fact dictated by King George, I think in reality we have to credit King George for these temporary job gains.

Three cheers for King George! Hip hip hooray, hip hip hooray, hip hip hooray!

Sad but true the English Monarch we rebelled against over 200 years ago is responsible for these jobs!

Sorry i am not buying into this, the jobs rate is still 9.9

This is nothing more then pro obama crap nonsense, dont believe me? check the data your self.


These jobs are either in the military or government office jobs
since, they don't always tell the truth.


I still see this as an economic collapse or at least would be one.

The true unemployment rate, including those that have lost unemployment benefits and those that are underemployed is almost 20%.

I was going to mention the census workers too, but someone beat me to it.

Sad thing is, they won't be eligible for unemployment when the census is over, so those jobs, once finished, will also go uncounted.

So you see, they call numbers on the jobs, but fake you out on the lost jobs.

Of the people that had jobs prior that did not qualify for benefits the first time, I would even push that estimate closer to a true 25% unemployment rate.
