WTF are the jobs that "O" said he was creating with all of our money? April's loss of 539,000 jobs was the smallest decline since October's 380,000. Job losses in February and March were revised higher by 66,000. Job losses were widespread across industries in April. The only sectors adding jobs were health care and government, which was boosted by the hiring of temporary workers to prepare for the census next year. Private-sector employment fell by 611,000. marketwatch.com

The birth/death model added 220K jobs. I thought it was only supposed to be adding jobs when the economy was growing at 2.5 percent or more. There are almost 500K phantom jobs added over the first three months.
