Dismal Jobs Report Puts Policy Makers on the Spot
August brought no increase in the number of jobs in the United States, a signal that the economy has stalled and that inaction by policy makers carries substantial risk.
The government report on hiring, released on Friday, provided fresh evidence that the recovery has fizzled without gaining momentum, prompting another round in a relentless diminution of economic expectations. Signs of stasis abounded: the unemployment rate, at 9.1 percent, did not change last month, and the White House said it was expected to stay that high through at least 2012.

Yep.
There was economic growth until Obamacare was passed.
Actually, there was job growth (as many as 458,000 in May 2010) after Obamacare passed.
Heck, job growth was much worse before Obamacare passed.
Feel free to find another scapegoat though.
How does that compare with population growth?
Evidently, the trickle down of the tax cuts never materialized. So we should do away with them for starters. Unfortunately, with Congress being basically locked down with petty , there's probably no outlook for things to get better.
It's not percentages, but actual job numbers. Next question?
Same period, private jobs only:

I look forward to Congress topping 25% approval rating. Maybe they'll get something done then.
Only WC can find a spurrious link between the passage of Obamacare and job creation.
It wasn't my original thought. It was the guest that Victoria Taft interviewed today on radio. He has a great deal of knowledge on the topic.
Must be renowned enough that you can't even remember his name.
that would make him denowned?
can't find that word over here
Yup, those policy makers are really, really scared.... seeing as how everyone accountable for the depression was punished.
The Human-American factor of the Banksters' Great Depression is very definitely, so far and as far as anybody predicts, L-shaped:
Note the 2001/Brown line where the Repugs famously did nothing about jobs so that their 8 years Reign of Error was was worst for job creation in modern times, then was followed by the catastrophe of the Banksters.
So just when does the unregulated, free-market "self correct"?![]()
What, cutting government spending doesn't create jobs?
Ball-less Barry's gonna screw up with his jobs plan, although it will look 1000% better than the Repugs anti-jobs plan.
Boutons' graph is a better representation of the current reality.
I think any sane person would take the brown line over the red one.
Same team responsible for both.
Actually, the same team occupied the WH during every one of those after the 1960 one.
Lol jobless recovery
of course, but dubya didn't have Clintion tripling the national debt (dubya was handed a budget surplus of $200B+) and dubya didn't start his fiasco regime with the worst depression since the 1930s.
