The U.S. job market is showing signs of a sustained recovery. But the country's prolonged struggle with unemployment will leave scars that are likely to remain for years, if not generations. on.wsj.com/wDcXpg

Riskless Return - The graph in the bottom half gives an impression that the current recession has been historically the worst in terms of the increase in the number of unemployed. However, one also has to take into account the increase in the working population over time. I wonder how the percentage unemployment figures look like?

Miguel Mayol - +Benny Castaldo I do not watch TV, I use to watch some TV series at my Linux Mint12 OS based computer in vo in order to keep my English understanding

I'm economist since 1991, high IQ, with MBA, and also Computer System Eng coursed, and not finished, with very good skills in maths I do know very well about what I'm speaking. We can disagree but if you bet for academic standards probably I win and if rarely i do not I can find a lot of doctors explaining the same I've just said.

From Chile Chicago boys failure experiment to deregulation passing by Laffer failure, as every economist knows edge funds - and richer people all over the world beyond them - are winning each day more money and the 99.9% each day less.

But even Laffer failed rich taxation are less all over the world than where in the 80s or 90s and also, since then this failure has been payed with debt instead of put taxes to richer people back.

But it is even worse with this planned crisis. It is similar to 29 one in many ways, but this time the only voice against them is over the net, and internet is not a mass media.

As always not many people can connect the dots.

Spain debt with a financial analysis is a better product than US, UK or even Germany one, but is paid more because it is the actual bet after Greece and Italy.

US and UK are, by far the worse, but for political reasons they have no bets against them.

Michael Baldwin - As a kid I remember going out with my dad every year to get a tree. I continue that now with my son. We will never have a fake tree. Still, the prices have gotten ridiculous.

Toasting the Bad Economy? Champagne Sales Bubble Up

Richard Murray - +The Wall Street Journal this goes back to accountantism. The ability of financial firms to use money and debt unboundedly, allows money to make money. Plain and simple. The goal for the government should be to split big business, public corporation and multifunctional firms by function into sole proprietorships and private corporations. That will grow competition across the board and kill the ability of financial firms to play with money as they do because the huge firms will be gone to give them access to diversified revenue and debt streams under one roof. http://voices.yahoo.com/occupy-wall-street-10278065.html?cat=3 #ows #occupy #teaparty +OCCUPY The Hood +Occupy Wall Street +teamofze Pattanapong
