| How many of the 85,000 new troops is included in the 126,000 new jobs? |
|
Or how many troops are included in any of the employment figures?

If you don't believe it, check out "War Is A Racket" by Marine Gen. Smedley Butler. Eye opening stuff.

A very good question.
I don't know the answer. Anybody got any ideas?

| 4. I was actually thinking about something similar |
|
When the Army Reservists are called up, and their employers are forced to (temporarily?) fill their positions, are the replacement staff treated as "new hires" in the BushCo numbers?

These October numbers only go from Oct 1-31
Figure those in for this month or December.

| 6. Do the figures count "openings" or "new hires"? |
|
Because at our company we are already looking for replacements for people who have just found out they are likely to be called up.
