Not a pretty picture.

[Epidemic]

interesting 7.5% black unemployment in virginia.

Not to try and stereotype but statistically speaking those would be the same jobs held by many illegal immigrants ehh?

Interesting the most liberal states have the highest unemployment rates among black and latino. Yep dem dair democrats am surely the benefactors of the minorities.

I wonder if this is 12% of total unemployment or just per each subgroups population. nah cant be that because that would mean all blacks were unemployed.

But Looking a california as a for instance I wonder how many of those latino's could actually be working if there were no illegals Hmmm ponder ponder ponder.

12% black
10% latino
5% white.

Come on. Are you kidding? I'm in Florida, we can't count anyway.

Come on.. I live in Mass it wouldn't be that bad... if they stopped building that darn tunnel

Yeah... educational cuts bite... we probaly will only have 4 sports teams next year... as is we cut 4 this year. One after school bus a week, no sports buses. No money for anything... yet our VP still wants to shut off all of the vending machines.. must be so the cafateria doesnt break even anymore.

New York...................Nuff said

the main thing i also notice was educational cuts...and i can certainly vouch for that. my tuition when i started was around $1800 for 15 hours...this semester i spent $2500 for 12 hours.

i can't really put much validity into the rest of it as it is very biased against bush. (like a projected job growth which is linear!?!)

Here in Florida Jeb Bush just announced that 400 jobs will be cut from the Division of Children and Families and another 10 % will have to reapply for their old job at a lower wage.
The case workers each now have better than 200 cases they must monitor each month.

This is the division that is suposed to check on abused children.

Too bad abused children can't vote. If they could make political contributions like the big sugar corporations can then I am sure Jeb could see his way clear to help them.

The state has set aside enough money to cleanup the polution of the everglades caused by big sugar and this they were ordered to pay for until they donated to an election campaign. The cleanup money would cover the dcf shortfall.
