Thanks President Obama for the Stimulus!!! It's a darn shame that Bush blew the budget surplus and put us into such an economic ditch that we needed to have it to get us out of it. >>" Businesses now hiring at fastest pace since 2006 "<< >>"WASHINGTON – American companies are on a hiring spree. Businesses delivered a jolt of strength to the economy by creating 268,000 jobs in April, the biggest monthly total in more than five years. The gains were solid across an array of industries, even beleaguered construction. It was the third month in a row of at least 200,000 new jobs. The private sector has added jobs for 14 consecutive months. Even a slight rise in the unemployment rate to 9 percent appears to be a quirk. The job growth was better than economists expected and perhaps the strongest sign yet that what they call a "virtuous cycle" has taken hold: When people spend more, corporate earnings rise, leading to more hiring and then more spending."<< news.yahoo.com
