Mixed News On U.S. Economy Indicates Financial Trouble
President Barack Obama
The U.S. unemployment rate went up to 7.9 percent in January 2013.
After Christmas, seasonal hiring ended, attributing to the fall off in
employment. 12,000,000 Americans are currently unemployed. Gas prices
have gone up again, another burden on motorists in tough financial
times. What's odd is the stock market keeps rising, to heights greater
than it enjoyed during America's most prosperous times under former
President Bill Clinton. Something is off there.
