New Jobs & Unemployment numbers are coming out today ... they are supposed to have a big impact on our everyday lives ...

ADP (payroll firm) for the month of Dec there were 84,000 layoffs just in the Private sector -- worse than expected but better than what was seen earlier in the Recession ... and it doesn't say how many of these are repeats (you know people who have two jobs) or if they are FT or PT jobs.

Challenger/Gray/Christmas (Staffing firm) says businesses are planning on laying off another 45,094 .... but no say if it is just for the month of Jan or if its longer.

While they are seeing a slow down in people losing their jobs -- there is some question as to whether there are jobs for the people out there .... um, nope. Without the jobs, the economic hope is thin. Gee, too bad a person can't be financially independent anymore ... used to be that the farmers at least had a chance.
