You know, I never know what to make of these kinds of graphs/statistics. So often there are caviats and ommsions that make the information seem worse than it is or better than it is. That being said, it is a sad statement about the economy and a telling statement about the Bush Administration and its efforts to obfuscate the actual the reality that they have done a poor job of creating jobs. If this were the only policy area where is seems as though they made "judgemental errors" I would not be quite as upset. However, it seems that whenever as situation arises that doesn't match their goals or desires they tend to "muddy the waters" in an effort to cover up the facts.
As someone who is looking for a new job, this hits home pretty stongly.
