    We must remember...the best way to save money is by not spending it at all. Then we must remember where we keep that money...as the same slogan applies to them too.

      Another one of Obama bin Laden's promises where unemployment wouldn't go above 10%. What a joke. If the health care bill passes then it'll probably go over 50%.

        It took Bush 6 years to create this mess. It will probably take a few years to reverse the trend and a few more years for things to recover.
        Funny that shortly before Bush left office people were trying to blame Clinton for decisions made over 8 years ago. But as soon as Obama was in office the state of the economy was based on what Obama did yesterday.

        The thing is you cannot fix it by raising taxes and making new entitlement programs, taxes need to be cut to spur growth. We have the second highest corporate tax in the world behind Japan. In todays digital world more companies can easily leave and most are for cheaper places to set up shop.

          Also when are people going to stop blaming Bush and start looking at Obamas performance?? Time to step up, his policies so far have done noting positive except waste money!

            It will probaby get even higher then 13% if you consider no actions are being taken to balance trade. Yet many more millions will be without health insurance and the ability to pay their bills. The politicians need to fix the trade policies already. As a society we can not afford to make unemployment benefits a modern day welfare program that never ends.
