Government jobs are down considerably and so the increase in jobs in the private sector is indeed improving. My brother can't get a job, he gave up and is on welfare, he is no longer counted as unemployed. Those improved numbers are just fiction caused by the way they count the unemployed. If you go off of unemployment and into welfare you improve the unemployment numbers. Besides till the elections the announced unemployment figures will be lower each month. But the hardly reported adjustments will be woopers!
