| 105. about those census jobs |
|
when hired back in January, for a job that didn't start until the middle of April, people were told that the the folks in charge had figured it would take ten weeks at 40 hours a week to do the job. Actually it took less than four weeks at less than 30 hours a week... so all those 75k people are going to be right back in next month's numbers, and the govt has lost an opportunity to provide jobs and inject some money into the economy. Maybe they'll make up for it by giving the banks another couple of hundred billion...

I know this because my wife was one of those 75k
