So....wait a second, what was the unemployment rate in September? 9.1 huh? How about August? 9.1 huh? So.....you mean in the past 3 months we've gone down .1%?
The media can give facts in ways that are misleading. Remember when you hear a significant fact like a poll number or an unemployment percentage, do your own research. The "tick" down, literally was 1 tick. We have not had jobs grow NEARLY as strong as we have been expecting/promised/deserve. It's time for a change. We were promised a government with accountability, well I haven't seen it. We were promised a government that would do all in its power to help, or at least not hinder, the economic future of our nation, I haven't seen it. We were promised the troops would be home a year ago......yeah. The ideals of this nation's current leaders and those who inform the public do not align with the principles of the founding fathers nor with the public at large. Let's get a new voice in 2012.
