This just keeps looking worse and worse. I could throw in plenty of comments but will just leave it at that.

it'll probably corrected down a little ??? Most were projecting 7.9 so if the 8.1 stands it wont help things out.

You guys probably don't remember, but when "His Grace" Jimmy Carter was in office, the Unemployment went to 10.8% and interest to 22% !!!! And YES, I do remember that SLUG also saying on TV, that AMERICANS will just have to learn to do without, and much less ! What a Loser he turned out to be and he hasn't changed since. He definitely HAS to be Americas ALL TIME WORST President in HISTORY .

I remember, but I thought unemployement rose to around 15%. I was getting ready to say that things were looking up by '83 compared to late '70's, early '80's.

The media loves the fear mongering, and Americans love to believe it.
