I don't think that the data takes into consideration the fact of many people on unemployment are now off the unemployment rolls. Not because they found a job but because their benefits ran out. Who counts those people? The welfare rolls perhaps? It might be worth it to take a look at the amount of people now trying to sign up for other government assistance like state funded medical coverage, food stamps and help with utility bills. That would give a better indication of where our economy stands right now.
We are moving out of recession and No matter what the past looked like we can always rectify our mistakes. Managing your money is not a difficult task if done in a careful, thoughtful, balanced way using legitimate means. The key is to be faithful in making wise financial investment
