1. They were so proud last week ...

When jobs 'increased' by over 250,000 citizens ....

Yet, over 320,000 new unemployment claims were filed ....

So, what is it ? ... How many NET jobs were 'created' ? ...

There is a mighty game of 3 Card Monte being played on us ...

2. Maybe full-time jobs morphing into two or three part times ones...

You don't have to pay benefits or overtimes that way.
