Missing jobs
"The economy shed 63,000 jobs in February, the second consecutive monthly decline in employment." Remember when you read this that the job shortfall is not 63,000 jobs, but 213,000 jobs, once we add in the 150,000 jobs just needed to keep up with population growth. I ask you to remember it, because your chances of being reminded of that fact by the corporate media are minimal.
