The unemployment rate, John, is 10.2 %, it is worse than economists 1 have been expecting 10.2 percent. We have hit double-digits on the unemployment rate now. And it is the highest since the early 1980s.The number of job lost: 190,000 jobs lost in the month, that is a little worse than we had thought, as well 190,000 jobs lost to street who've been looking for may be 175,000 jobs lost. Let me tell you though, at 190,000 jobs lost that still is a slowing pace of jobs lost for the year. And it is still, by my count, the least number of jobs lost in about a year, a little more than a year, so you can look at these numbers and say, the number of jobs that we are losing, shedding 2 every month is getting smaller and smaller, but that unemployment rate is worrying, John.
Caring, John, when you have 10.2 % unemployment, in the modern economy that tells you that there are a lot of people out there with good skills, good education, who are hard workers, who are ready to go. But the economy is not giving them the opportunities. So let me continue to go through these numbers for you, but bottom line here, the job losses continue to slow month by month, by month by month. But that's not stopping the unemployment rate, the unemployment rate is at 10.2 percent.
