Well, sort of.

They poll companies to count the jobs added when they come up with those numbers. How many of those jobs will be out-sourced?

I don't think it will hold. Too many cuts, too soon.

Evidently Washington and the idiot politicians don't

People don't get rich on unemployment - employment is far better. They lose their homes on unemployment. There are four highly qualified applicants for every job. It's an "employers' market."
