Unemployment Hits 9.7%

"The unemployment rate jumped almost half a point to 9.7 percent in August, the highest since 1983, reflecting a poor job market that will make it hard for the economy to begin a sustained recovery."

So much for that stimulus, eh?  And that number doesn't even include people who have given up looking for jobs, and those whose jobless benefits have run out.  And all the while, we're printing more and more money...Hmmmm, I wonder if my Monopoly money will be good one day...
