Answer to the Job Number Spin - Storms Can NOT be Blamed!!
Advertisements [?]
The repukes are now saying that the numbers would have been higher, but the hurricanes in FL hurt the numbers. THIS IS BULLSHIT!!!! I am in Florida and let me tell you something - Anyone in FL that didnt have a job before, has no reason not to have one now THANKS to the hurricanes. There is so much work needing done here in the way of debris removal, and general cleanup efforts, if anything the numbers were BOOSTED by the hurricanes. No one lost their jobs because of the storms and if anyone's start of emplyment was delayed from the storm, it would only have been for a couple days in most cases. The storms brought a lot of destruction to FL, but one thing they did NOT do is remove jobs or hinder new jobs from forming. I think it is time for all of us to let the media aware of this and also let them know that no amount of spin will change the fact that they missed the numbers by 32000 jobs (at least - not taking into consideration that this number will probably be revised to about 20000 lower in the coming week or so).
