UNEMPLOYMENT RATE IN US UP IN MOST STATES -

"The changing trend in state unemployment rates reflects a weaker economy hampered by high gas prices and lower factory output. Nationally, employers added only 18,000 net jobs in June, the second straight month of feeble hiring."

PRESIDENT OBAMA SPEAKS IN LOS ANGELES and THE UNEMPLOYMENT RATE IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA is MORE THAN 12 %

I'm wondering if McDONALD'S the fast food burger restaurant announced that they were hiring on the EXACT SAME DAY as OBAMA'S VISIT did that to give evidence to a "recovery." President Obama was in Los Angeles for the afternoon two days ago, on Thursday the 21st of April, 2011.

A friend of ours tells us that 3000 people showed up at a Glendale California McDonald's to apply, some getting there the night before to apply!

The UNEMPLOYMENT LINES of the GREAT DEPRESSION are with us!

GREEDY RETAILERS are IMPORTING JUNK to SELL TO US and THOSE IN POVERTY ARE THE CONSUMERS

GREEDY RETAILERS are IMPORTING JUNK for us to buy, junk that may be a "bargain" until you realize it's YOUR JOB.

Or the job that maintains your mortgage or your health insurance.


Whenever possible, choose the AMERICAN MADE product over the import...

CALIFORNIA DRAGS OUT DEPRESSION AS NATION STALLS IN RECOVERY-

Reading the news lately, it seems that California is remaining in a Depression, with an official unemployment rate of 12.9 % BUT HONESTLY most people I talked to seem to think that it's more like 20% or more.



UNEMPLOYMENT FIGURES ARE BASED ON THOSE WHO ARE ACTUALLY (STILL) COLLECTING UNEMPLOYMENT BENEFITS. Those who ran out of benefits are not counted, though they may be more terminally out of work than most! All over there are apartments for (too high) rent, and foreclosures on homes are in the thousands every month, meaning that families are loosing homes and having to go live in apartments.


The rest of the nation is stalled out, meaning that the economic conditions are not much better and not much worse. There hasn't been signs of a growing economy that would make impact to our overall plight in a while, but even small improvements in the statistics mean a lot to a lot of people.
