Go to ADMIT GLOBAL WARMING AND DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT!

- Go to change in employment
Not to mention that all of this economic spinning going on is just covering
up all the layoffs and severings going on across the country on a time-delayed and incremental basis, like General Motors laying off some 30,000 employees in three years. There are many other corporations doing the same thing. Also, even though the employment statistics show a relatively low unemployment rate, it doesn't show how the average salary in the US has taken a nosedive in the past five years, nor does it reflect that there are a helluva lot of people out there with more than one job. The country would be a lot better off if Dubya found a change in employment, far sooner than January 2009.
