Census Bureau reports third year of increasing poverty and uninsured

"WASHINGTON - The number of Americans living in poverty increased by 1.3
million last year, while the ranks of the uninsured swelled by 1.4
million, the Census Bureau reported Thursday.
It was the third straight annual increase for both categories. While not
unexpected, it was a double dose of bad economic news during a tight
re-election campaign for President Bush"

There it is, do you see it Bush has created 3 to 3.4 million jobs.
We still need about a million more.
But the population has gone up twelve million.
How much of that is immigration. 1/2 to 3/4 (6 to 9 million).
Bush has done one heck of a job to absorb that many poeple and still have
an expanding economy. Cheer up. Start a business. Look at all the new
customers.

We must be developing an awsome underground economy.
