Post by: guido911 on March 10, 2010, 05:05:14 PM
Meh, what's another $220 billion in deficit spending during the shortest month of the year?

Still cleaning up the mess.

And at the same time, 7.9% jump in jobs.  Not counting the temporary service companies they have been booming for 6 months - have even had a couple call me, of all people!  Can't find enough people to work for low wages and no benefits.  Another excuse for more imports from other countries.
