its pretty amazing really, losing 700k+ jobs in a month when we should be bottoming. Then again who knows with the BLS b.s., but amazing that the 600k+ from leaving the workforce plus 85k lost is amazing at this point. And thats with all the stimulus, bailouts, cash for clunkers.
It is fascinating to read about the US in a foreign newspaper. You don't often get brutal honesty like that in a major US paper. At least the author is willing to admit that Europe is in worse shape, though.
I was waiting for someone to say it. That poster that mentioned reading foreign newspapers: instead of patting yourself on the back becuase you found a different perspective you should first determine the validity, and integrity, of that perspective.
