I mean, a boy's gotta eat, and what with a rumored Baby Weiner on the way, and that new car for TheMissusWeiner(an Audi A-8 is a good round number), house-complete-with-decorator-spending-money-by-the-wheelbarrow-hunney, the lawyer's fees, the potential alimony and child support....well, it adds up. 'Specially when noooooobuddy's gunna wanna pony up $2500 for the privilege of buying a seat at his dinner, and nooooobuddy's gunna wanna get within camera range of the poh' boy.
Good thing the DemSpinMachine is in high gear to save his ass. Even ABC is no longer impressed.
And, yep, that lil' ole' headwind that Austan Goolsbee assured us about is actually a gale, and a chill one at that. Austan decided to beat it back to academia while he could. Ain't nobuddy gunna wanna be around The One come late November 2012, know-whud-I-mean?
We’ve seen the headline numbers from the monthly jobs report; losing a job means a long stint without employment these days. The median period of unemployment is now at a historic high; 39.7 weeks according to the May Report. That’s the highest it has ever been in the history of the survey.
A new research report from the Bureau of Labor Statistics dug into this trend to offer new details on how long it takes to make the transition from unemployed to employed and found that 11 percent of job seekers took a year or longer to land a new job. Another off-the-chart reading.
Data included in the report shows that between 2000 – 2008 about half of all unemployed people found a job within five weeks. Last year, a little more than a third of jobseekers were able to land a new position in that amount of time.
Hope-'n-Change, ya'll!
