"It looks like we're still seeing the private sector create jobs, which is consistent with a slow-growing economy. The problem is the government sector is cutting jobs. So it looks like we'll get a weak, but slightly positive, jobs number on Friday." --GARY THAYER, CHIEF MACRO STRATEGIST, WELLS FARGO ADVISORS, ST. LOUIS, MISSOURI

8. Good! They must have held on to the job after Labor Day |

The ADP report is based on payroll data for the 12th of the month or the nearest day after. http://adpemploymentreport.com/PDF/REVISED_METHODOLOGY_DEC_2008.pdf

9. Most of the hires were by small business, so let's be sure to BF them with new taxes |
|
to pay for the jobs bill.

10. Or we could continue to cut out the public sector and its employment |
|
which will reduce demand and insure they don't hire.
