I personally know that friends of mine that were out of jobs are finding them and people's houses are starting to sell for after being stagnant for quite a while.
President Obama is a visionary. A rare bird in the "I want it yesterday" mentality of this country. He's putting us on the right path for sure. 
Go ahead... start the attacks!   |
The banner headline on this mornings Cincinnati Enquirer, Tuesday November 25 2009, states "Regional joblessness up slightly" and further says " October rate reaches 9.6%."
Usually Indiana and Kentucky and Ohio are very similar when it comes to published unemployment numbers.
I am uninformed on this. Jobless claims. Does unemployment money run out after a certain period for an individual? It could be that people are still out of work and have used up all of their unemployment.Perhaps they no longer can make claims.
I shouldn't be here in political. I really don't know what I am talking about.
I hope you are right Chelsea. I hope things are getting better.
