Unemployment Claims Lowest Since Bush Became President

Unemployment claims dropped last week to the lowest level since George W.
Bush was inaugurated president, according to the latest jobless benefits
report released by the Labor Department on Wednesday.

New unemployment insurance requests fell to 339,000 for the week ending
December 27. Jobless claims have not been this low since January 20, 2001,
the day President Bush was sworn into office as president of the United
States.



What's the real count of those still unemployed, those who are
underemployed and those who've given up? Biggest numbers since the
1930s, I'd bet.

The Bush Economy is a failure. Just like its namesake.

Or... the dems are a failure and this time next year there will not be many
in office! Good news for America.

That good to hear. I've always admired George H.W. Bush. He was good to the
Coast Guard when I was on active duty. The "coasties" always helped him out in
Kennebunkport whenever he asked.

Of course, 41 would be eighty-four in '08. Hardly likely.

What the heck is "underemployed?"

And, why are you posting through a German news server?

The Berlin server is probably the best text only free news server on
the planet hands down. No binaries, the retention is excellant and
they are right on top of posts - almost no delay.

It's a good server.

Insufficiently employed, not used to the optimum capacity. Chiefly of
persons or machinery.

As when a top industrial designer is laid off, cannot find new work in
his field, and is forced to accept a job doing whatever it is you do for
a living.

Because it is a great news server and offers portability. Why, does it
bother you? If so, why? Why do you post via Comcast?

Nobody "is forced to accept a job", you choose to accept a job. Professions
and lines of work have come and gone throughout time and their is no
guarantee that your particular profession or line of work will be in demand
in the future. How many wheelwright jobs are there today?

Just curious.
