I've lost four jobs this month... my five year old has lost three... and my grandparents (who have been dead for some time now) have each lost two. This economy is horrible. I wonder how many jobs we will lose next month (and this month has only started!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CatherineM Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 I realize that I haven't been in the states in 3 years, but are there really that many jobs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Didymus Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 Mark Steyn was saying how it'll probably be only 470,000,000 or so since February has only 28 days.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Norseman82 Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 Perhaps they are counting all the people with multiple personalities???

So 1.75 * 303,000,000 (the approx. number of people in the US) = 530,000,000. We also think she went to math class with [url="http://failblog.org/2009/02/04/verizon-math-fail/"]These people.[/url] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

add Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 If We Don't Pass The Stimulus Package….. The economy will come roaring back in six months just as strong as ever. In 2008 800 billion was dumped into the economy, it just beginning to take effect, it needs time to work. OB has to get his stimulus package out quickly to make it appear that he saved the day (and take all the credit). I predict the economy will turn around and prosper with or without OB’s great spending plan. PS: his is a spending plan not a stimulus plan.
