    When Obama in January 2011 formed his Council on Jobs and Compe iveness, unemployment was hovering above 9 percent. Two years president later, more than 12 million people in the U.S. are out of work. The unemployment rate has improved to 7.8 percent, but both parties agree that's still too high.


    Officials said the president always intended for the council to fulfill its mission and then wind down

    Another throwaway gesture in the direction of a problem with distinct social significance -- unemployment -- is permitted to lapse. I don't get what the problem is. Am I supposed to cry, or something?

    the economy and jobs are the two tops priorities in all the nation-wide polls I've seen.

    the "abstract" deficit is WAY DOWN the list

    and of course DC does NOTHING about either.
