Unemployment: You're Doing It Wrong…
The nation’s unemployment rate in September rose to 9.8 percent, its highest level since June 1983, as 263,000 jobs were cut from payrolls, the Labor Department announced FridayThe 263,000 jobs lost during the monthwere far more than most economists had expected. The consensus forecast was that around 175,000 jobs had been shed in September.“One job lost is one job too many,” said Vice President Biden this morning, flanked by chair of the Council of Economic Advisors Christina Romer; OMB Director Peter Orszag; Director of the National Economic Council Larry Summers; and Executive Director of the Middle Class Task Force Jared Bernstein.
Meanwhile, here in the great state of Ohio, Unemployment still hovers around 11% – August’s Unemployment numbers were reported at 10.8%. While that is down from the high of 11.2% in July, there’s still no reason yet to celebrate – One in Ten Ohioans still do not have a job.
Here in Central Ohio, the picture doesn’t look any better. The area (Franklin County & Surrounding Areas) has an average unemployment rate of 9%, with Pickaway County reporting 11% unemployment in August alone. Other areas of concern throughout the state:
- Meigs County: 16.6% Unemployment
- Highland County: 16.3% Unemployment
- Williams County: 15.9% Unemployment
- Pike & Morgan Counties: 15.6% Unemployment
- Noble & Adams Counties: 15.0% Unemployment
- Scioto County (Gov. Strickland’s Home County): 13.1% Unemployment
The Administration may want to call this “Change.” If this is the change the Cult of Barack Obama was talking about…its change in the wrong direction.
