I love seeing these, although it's kind of depressing.
Just as a thought, not trying to ruin this data (because it is accurate and shows the economic **** reality we are in) I will point out how distorted the government printed numbers can be...
We don't truly have to add a single job to get the headline unemployment rate down to Dec2007 levels [as measured by the U-3/U-6 rates]... The only thing that needs to happen is
fewer layoffs and all these folks
falling off the rolls. 26-Weeks they will be off the U-3 (and so the unemployment rate will "drop" by the ignorant man's judgement). After the 99th week, they are off the u-6 (reflecting a decline in that number).
Does that reflect a better economy? **** no. We will still have 1 in 6 on food stamps and true unemployment of 20-23% (and counting with each college/higherEd class that comes out jobless).
That being said - there is no way in hell we will be adding 262,500 jobs a month... Can anyone tell me when that has ever happend in history?
Never.

The wife said much the same thing last night, as it happens.
And while I, personally, wouldn't engage in massive depopulation (particularly of the elderly and otherwise non-productive) to sort the problem out for the remainder, I'm not so sure TPTB / NWO crowd have my morals. They're already hideously rich and powerful and
still want even more, for one thing. Which I'm sure tells you something about their personalities, or lack thereof?
Fact is, the birth rate in most countries is pretty low, while the elderly are living longer than ever. Simple arithmetic tells you that can't continue indefinitely. But if the governments of the developed and developing world engage in a 'drop a sprog for dollars! (or more likely SDRs)' drive to boost the birth rate to pay for it with taxes, we simply reach the carrying capacity of the planet all the sooner. And there are no jobs for those sproglings to do anyway.
Inevitably, we're going to reduce the population of this rock to the Georgia Guidestones level, whether we want to or not. War, Famine, Pestilence and plain old Death have
always been the simplest way to adjust demographics, whether inflicted deliberately on the unsuspecting populace or with a helping hand from that *****, Mother Nature.

The only way the United States will be able to generate enough jobs is if Henry Ford, Steve Jobs, Andrew Carnegie, and a thousand other industrialists managed to rise from the dead and invent industries that employ millions.
This country needs to move to a different model of how an economy is to be structured since Capitalism, socialism, communism, fascism, whatever, are all failed models because they rely on producers that generate the wealth that can be redistributed to those who do not produce, or produce very little compared to their consumption.
There are too many people now, and that will only get worse while the jobs that are still here migrate, become redundant or obsolete.
What needs to be be done is for the leadership----if anyone can find a real visionary---to charge CONgress with the duty of coming up with a new way for its 400,000,000 people to admit that they can no longer support themselves with work-for-pay and must either be killed off or housed, fed, clothed, entertained, and otherwise leading lives that do not require them to produce something, from the time they are born till the time that they die 100 years later.
Work for pay is only going to work for a part of the population. The rest of the tens of millions that have nothing constructive to do will have government provide for them in some fashion, that mimics vouchers for essentials and perks. And without the guilt that has heretofore been associated with layabouts.
A two tiered economy is the only way forward. Without extermination, 50,000,000 people who now have nothing to contribute to the economy will have to be dealt with constructively.
