Also, if you can read the report I posted (or ask your grandchild to read that for you), you'll see that in March all the gains came from the private sector which is what you want, i.e. smaller government right?

forgot where I read it, all I know is that it wasn't on CNN...but a huge problem for the unemployment rate seems to be that while the private sector is doing well getting jobs back, the public sector is doing very bad. but yeah, small government!

That is not my interpretation. The report reads:

"Total nonfarm payroll employment rose by 120,000 in March."

Which means there were 120,000 more people who became employed than those who became unemployed, hence 120,000 new job creation.

Let's grant you that this is net jobs. Since 1.4 million were laid off, you must be saying in one month 1 million 412,000 people found employment. Is this what you are saying?

Are you saying all those stimulus jobs used to hire police and teachers are gone now? So we need a trillion stimulus every year. Is this your dream economic plan?

Btw. Flint jan, I'm very sorry, but since my dear friend and your fellow Internet troll ashtar turned up again, and I can freely post pictures of donkeys there and cuss at him and get thank yous and big ups from fellow members, I might just skip our discussion and get over there. I know that you don't really like donkeys, so here's an elephant for you...take care bro!..sorry...howdy partner!
