I will take that as you knowing you are going to look silly with the actual numbers. I thought so.

this is to 2010, (I would assume a sharp decrease flushing the census guys, and unemployment numbers went up with that flush so) and I wonder where they are getting the 2011 from so far, because I dont see them on opm or bls......so is it the conservative think tank putting out those numbers?

help?

Regulation Business, Jobs Booming Under Obama

The numbers in the chart end in March of this year, so I suspect they are part of a quarterly report.  I'm sure that they are out there.

DYB,

Some people, I wouldn't waste my time "showing the numbers".  You are among them.

Others, would check the numbers themselves, so providing a link is redundant. Such as with Ron.

I can have a conversation with Ron.  With you, it's just an insult match.

Ah Ha!!!!!!

Status: offline 		% wise increases sure. But what are the hard numbers.......You want to slip in the percentages as showing a vast growth when real numbers wouldn't show the same affect. Clever sure but it isn't the truth by any stretch of the imagination.

That doesn't even touch that the regulators are needed. Which is another story entirely
