the other problem with the jobs losses is that these are only the reported job losses.. Remember there are a load of people working under the counter that are losing the jobs too and I am not just talk about illegals.

i expect to see the current trend line to look more drawn out and protruded like the two most recent recessions. we continue to introduce more and more leverage in to the system and it takes that much longer for recovery. don't expect a snap back, especially with the treasury taking on more leverage.

Fortunately that graph is basically bunk, because its not corrected for population.
