A Picture is Worth.....

Slate has a jaw-dropping graphic illustrating nationwide losses in employment since 2006. See this "interactive map of vanishing employment across the country" here:"When Did Your County's Jobs Disappear?," Chris Wilson, posted April 15, 2009. I watched the bright happy blue dot of Gwinnett County, Georgia, with its 15,085 jobs gained between January 2006 and January 2007, become an angry exploding red dot, with 24,885 jobs lost between January 2007 and January 2008.
