One year post-stimulus, unemployment still high
Uploaded by: RussiaToday
Video Description:
A year ago US President Barack Obama signed his landmark stimulus bill with the goal of creating jobs. Despite the official data that shows a fall in unemployment, a much broader survey of employers shows that payrolls were actually reduced by 20,000 jobs in January. The modest job creation proposals coming from the White House and Congress won't do much to create the 11 million jobs that are necessary to restore US employment to pre-recession levels.
