That is because we now have more people on government assistance and I am not talking about unemployment.
How many employees make up AIG, GM, Chrysler, Citi, BofA, and the other companies that mismanged their fiannces but thanks to Timmy G have nothing to worry about for the next 5 to 10 years.
Our future growth rate will reflect the "green shoots" we pay for today.
I think you're being overly skeptical. There's no way the government takeovers could account for this huge drop in layoff announcement. Plus, you've got to consider that there are tons of green shoots out there which lend support to the theory that the economy is improving.
