U.S. Economy Finally Adds Jobs in October, but Unemployment Rate Still 9.6%

[mEDITate-OR:
miss out on Daniel's unique charts...

The 1st graph shows U.S. the dramatic impact of the EURO crisis on our jobs.
The froze and we hiccuped.
The next chart shows U.S. that things are also shifting - some areas up, some down.

The 2nd graph shows U.S. that while this month those under 5 weeks many have gone down; BUT all other lengths are still going up. For the long term unemployed this is not good.

The 3rd graph shows U.S. the size of the "discouraged" work force - they are NOT counted as unemployed, but they ARE still out there - watching U.S., for their chance for a job.

The last graph shows U.S. how "seasonal adjustments" smooth out the volatility.
