Why not—it's a gloomy day anyway

Undernews: Nearly ten million more unemployed under Obama

"Economic Collapse Blog - That headline is not a misprint.  The number of working age Americans that do not have a job has increased by nearly 10 million since Barack Obama first entered the White House.  In January 2009, the number of 'officially unemployed' workers plus the number of Americans 'not in the labor force' was sitting at a grand total of 92.6 million.  Today, that number has risen to 102.2 million."

The snow plow drivers are again unemployed hereabouts; the big old polar vortex and the snow that traveled with it are merely memories and now it’s foggy, drippy, rainy, sloppy all over again. Here. A January thaw. It is soooo tempting to dream of Spring. And also so misguided. January—did we mention January?
