they said it on CNBC. The whisper numbers were 240K jobs or so, which really is not a lot given where we are in this so called recovery.

which most everyone I know thought was nuts anyhow.

We need 150K jobs/month to "break even", John Snow has stated this consistently (yet more reason to think this guy is the dumbest treasury secretary we've ever had, Bob Rubin he IS NOT)... and we can't even come up with that. You thought 150K was nuts, I also think 150K is nuts, but if you watch Kudlow and Cramer you'll see a whole lot of supply side wallstreet people who are in a major state of denial as to the reality of free trade and how it isn't living up to the stated promise of "creating MORE high quality jobs". Of course a quick glance at Germany in the last 10 years could have told you that, I mean really.

The real issue is that even the 50K the created jobs are low pay service jobs, and professional white collar are still walking out the door. Time for some leadership on this issue.
