It actually looks good, but it does not correct for the increased size of the population, so the right side needs to be taken down a bit. Looking at the details is important. If the numbers stay high it should affect the political climate. But then we need to look at income and productivity. The main pages contain lots of information. http://data.bls.gov/servlet/SurveyOutputServlet?data_tool=latest_numbers&;series_id=CES0000000001&output_view=net_1mth One issue: is there any political pressure that distorts these figures? ********
