Jobs Report Much Better Than Expected


We were being primed to expect about 120,000 jobs created in October, but instead:
In its monthly job report released Friday morning, the Bureau of Labor Statistics reported that the private-sector added 212,000 jobs in October, seasonally adjusted. The federal government shed 12,000 jobs, but local and state governments added 4,000, bringing the total gain for the month to 204,000. The official unemployment rate calculated in a separate survey rose slightly to 7.3 percent.
Imagine where we could be if the Stupid Party not been engaged in economic sabotage for the past 5 years.
