Jobs Plunge 308,000 Amid War Worries Friday March 7, 4:55 pm ET By Caren Bohan biz.yahoo.com The following is an excerpt: WASHINGTON (Reuters) - "The U.S. economy last month suffered its worst jobs drop since the aftermath of the Sept. 11 attacks, as worries over an Iraq war led companies to put the brakes on hiring. Payrolls plunged 308,000 in February, the Labor Department said on Friday. It was the biggest slide since a 327,000 drop in November 2001, just after the deadly hijack attacks on the World Trade Center. The jobless rate rose to 5.8 percent in February from 5.7 percent in January. Harsh winter weather and the call-up of military reservists to the Gulf may have played into some of the recent weakness."
