My thoughts are just about the actual number of unemployed in our country and how inaccurate the reporting is.
ceejay: I actually agree with what you said. I failed to make clear that my posting of these stats does dispel the myth of starving people on the one hand and the movement toward more of a welfare state on the other. You are correct in that we need to get people back to work and many of these folks want to return to caring for themselves.

These stats also speak volumes about how being poor in America is so different to many other nations where people are literally starving to death.

Above all we need a pro-growth pro energy Administration and Congress
