That's only because people ended up moving away to where they could find work. And how about all the one's that exhausted their benefits? Or the one's that committed suicide because they couldn't get work and lost it all. They don't report on everything, plus they like to play with the numbers to give false hope to the sheeple.

Yeah, really! lol We are headed out to the store to try and scrounge up a Thanksgiving meal for tomorrow, but I won't be driving. I'll just be the annoying backseat driver.

Yes that is some good news but 15 percent to 14.1 is not really in my opinion a huge drop. what’s more likely is what happens in all job markets is that people simply quit looking for work so there not counted as unemployed .Unless the country its self turns around economically it will be awhile until Vegas recovers.

While it greatly pains me to say it, you are right. People are moving away. Eventually, unemployment will stabilize because of people, such as myself, who decided the grass was greener on on the other sdie of the fence.

The turnip greens are greener up here too.
