We knew they (obama) were manipulating the numbers - all those people they dropped off the rolls would eventually come back to bite them.

Numbers don't lie, but Obama does.

Well the military can always use more troops so there's an option, that's one way the average man can benefit from government depending upon how u look at it.

If only we had money for them. Oh well, we could confiscate gold from private citizens and redistribute among the troops as compensation. Would the military be considered "the enemy" among the people in such a case?

What exactly are you all blaming Obama for, exactly?

The analysis shows revised job losses from April, 2008 to March, 2009.

This only proves more economic catastrophe during Bush's term than previously thought!

Not if the people become soldiers. We do have money for military, Obama is freezing spending, except on essentials like homeland security and healthcare, we the people need to be taken care of.

U are right, I hate Bush. He lied first. But Obama won the peace prize and therefore the pharaoh who deserves my utmost loyalty.

Tax revenues are insufficient to pay for the military + SS + medicare alone.

The title of this article is deceptive. It says the US "may lose" jobs, as if this event has yet to happen. But the article is actually talking about the annual revision of the jobs report covering the period from part of 2008 to part of 2009. It's about an event that has already happened during a time when Obama was not even president.

The title should have read "US May Have Lost 824,000 Jobs...."
