Lizzie has a good point. Underemployment is a more important issue than unemployment. Many people are only marginally attached to the work force.

jobless claims are actually meaningless now because the white collar jobs have been gone for 2 years and the people displaced in those high paying positions, for the most part, cannot find the same level of work as before and have taken low paying service jobs., Well, at least you admit the jobs were gone before President Bush took office. Have faith, President Bush may change the trend president Clinton established. In spite of all the negative geopolitical elements.
