Update!

Martinsville's unemployment rate went up to 22.1% last month. Oh yeah, that stimulus program is REALLY COOKING NOW!

This sounds serious!

In an article from the Associated Press, 1.3 million Americans are scheduled to lose their unemployment insurance benefits before the end of THIS year! (See today's issue of the Martinsville Bulletin!)In a related article - also from the Associated Press, less people are recieving higher payouts from their own unemployment insurance benefits. Seems the President should have worried more about the economy and a lot less about health care - at least for now!
