Mostly in retail. More bush inc. whitewash bullshit. Replacing lost jobs with jobs that pay 6.00 an hour. Great.

Bush has a plan. If Americans don't want those jobs there are plenty of Mexicans that do.

The apnews numbers are wrong. Most of the economists were saying that we were going to see 175,000 new jobs in January. As for the productivity growth in the third and last quarter of 2003, it came from consumers serving themselves. Anybody talk to a live person when you called a business during that period? It's all done my voice-mail and computers. That "productivity growth" misses the whole point of productivity growth. It didn't add to existing workers payroll or benefits. Finally, most conservatives are telling everybody that the economy will add 2 million jobs this year. Since January was a low 112,000, that means the remaining 11 months must grow jobs by over 170,000, and that number increases when that number is not met for each subsequent month.

And the layoffs and businesses being shipped off shore continues hot and heavy. If only we could layoff Bush or at least off shore his function. Maybe someone in India could do it for less money. Rolling Eyes Rolling Eyes

I have long said Bush brought us full circle to the days of Hoover. His jobs created record is the final link to make it so.
