The Patriot Post® · 9.4 Jobs

Perhaps Barack Obama slipped, or perhaps he merely stated what reality feels like when it comes to the economy and employment. Trying to boast of his economic record, he said, “[O]ur businesses have created jobs for 51 consecutive months, 9.4 new jobs in all. But we all know somebody out there still looking for work.” We all know Obamanomics have utterly failed to restart our economy. Last quarter’s GDP growth was negative, while unemployment remains persistently high. So while 9.4 jobs isn’t literally accurate, it sure belies the feeling.
