THE DOW INDUSTRIALS ROSE 56.99 points to 11727.34, eclipsing a mark set in
January 2000 at the height of the tech bubble. The average also set a new
intraday record, helped by a steep drop by oil prices.

Takes a while to recover from those two steps back, eh?

But it still took three years for the number of jobs to get back to
Clinton levels. And all we had to do was drop our labor force
participation rate from 67.2% to 66.1%.
Funny how our "unemployment" statistics don't bother to include the number
of people driven permanently out of the job market.
Interesting bit from the BLS...
The labor force has grown by 7.898 million while Bush has been in office.
The number of jobs added over the same period has been 6.801 million. But
"unemployment" has gone *down.
Quite a trick that...

Ford Layoffs Could Hit 30,000
Annalisa Burgos, 12.07.05, 1:20 PM ET
NEW YORK -
Topping the headlines at midday, Ford Motor is in the spotlight after
reports that the automaker will slash up to 30,000 jobs and close ten
plants. Next month, Ford will announce details of its restructuring
plan, which The Detroit News said will be more aggressive than analysts
had expected.

GM's big shakeup
Automaker ups job cuts to 30,000 jobs as it shuts plants, facilities in
plan to save $7B a year.
November 21, 2005: 3:29 PM EST
By Chris Isidore, CNN/Money senior writer
GM announces 30,000 job cuts and plans to close about a dozen plants.
CNN's Allan Chernoff reports (November 21)
Play video
NEW YORK (CNNMoney.com) - General Motors Corp. said Monday it would cut
30,000 hourly jobs and close or scale back operations at about a dozen
U.S. and Canadian locations in a bid to save $7 billion a year and halt
huge losses in its core North American auto operations.
The cuts are 5,000 more than the 25,000 jobs GM had said it would cut
in June, and represent more than 22 percent of its union work force in
North America. Many of the cuts would start next year, GM said Monday,
despite job protection provisions in its union contract that runs
through September 2007.
Yep. It'a all rosy, Fred.

Yeah, the automotive labor unions need to elect Democrats to repeal the
law of supply and demand.
Expensive labor = low demand for labor.
