This good news or is it? No jobs left to lay off by this pt. The new way to make a profit in America is firing your employees and re-hiring new ones at half the price with no benefits. Soon the only two classes of people in America with benefits will be the rich and public sector employees.

Its true, we need more information on jobs and job creation not just a big number. People who have jobs with benefits are very fortunate at this point. There's a huge power and wealth grab going on.
