The United States economy added a meager 18,000 jobs in June, compared with a gain of a revised 25,000 jobs in May, the Department of Labor said on Friday, while the unemployment rate edged up to 9.2 percent from 9.1 percent in May.

The numbers showed the continuing challenges of adding jobs to the economy even at a rate that keeps pace with population growth, two years after the official end of the longest economic downturn since the Great Depression. This is a recovery?

Joe Biden is the man. I'll bet he busted some kneecaps in his heyday.

deregulation in this age doesn't work. All those incentives to corporations and large business does not work. Every single company is tighting it belt and layoff workers while keeping a tidy profit. What need to be focused on his regulation of banks and a greater transparency between government and the people. Stop blaming obama and blame it on the banks and corporations that lay off people when they don't need to.
