CHART OF THE DAY: THE SCARIEST JOBS CHART EVER

Joe Weisenthal

The latest jobs report was a major disappointment, as the 80K number of net new jobs created was below the 100K that was expected, and well below any pace that will quickly reduce the unemployment number, which remains elevated at 8.2%.

And so we bring you the latest, updated version of this famous chart from Bill McBride at Calculated Risk, which shows the trajectory of the jobs decline (starting at the beginning of the recession) and the recovery, compared to all of the other post-WWII recessions.

Once again, the decline is far deeper than anything previous that we've seen, and the comeback remains bad.

  • Thanks Obama

    Filthy liar and a thief...

    What happened to the $3.2 trillion dollar "jobs" "stimulus" bullshit? Where did our money go?

    Probably enough money to give every man woman and child in America $10,000 each. Wouldn't that boost the economy more than Obama and his conga line of morons spending our money for us?

    Obama is a failure, period.

    To defend his administration at any level one needs to turn their brain inside out...

  • Until folks wake up to the big ol slide towards classical fascism(the state & a select cabal of corporations gaming the economic and political market) not a damn thing will change, except maybe some more fake war, AKA like post 9/11.

  • Yeah that's bad. And when you consider how Obama's policies stopped the bleeding, it could have been a whole lot worse.
