1. I'm curious as to why
so many states in the middle of the country have lower unemployment.

5. From what I know of people who LIVE there - Houston is one of the BRIGHT SPOTS in the country...
Edited on Sat Sep-19-09 02:24 PM by TankLV
Same with Dallas - they have one of if not THE lowest unemployment rates.

We have many consultants from there, and they have said that most companies have hired back people that were laid off last year.

Now, helmut hair may be an uncaring idiot, but what he says is not unreasonable from his and other Texans' perspective.

Especialy when most other states are in the fucking sewer, let alone the toilet, by comparison...

Just sayin...

7. Depends on the meaning of "bright." According to the latest DOL report
of states qualifying for Federal Extended Unemployment benefits, TX is one of the 40 states that qualifies according to the latest report.
