This is really a dumb thread.
Experts predicted that unemployment would continue to rise through 2009 regardless of what happens. What's good is that the rate of claims on average is trending down from the alarming rate earlier this year.

Granted, I'm not an MBA but I would think a business needs to see increasing revenues before they can justify hiring more workers and adding expense to their balance sheet.
RIJIMMY seems to be advocating the opposite of this, hire the people to give everybody a job and then see what happens. Sounds like socialism to me
