Lol the USA unemployment report just came out. 20 thousand people lost jobs but the unemployment rate actually went down to 9.7% due to people stopping to look for work.

Actually that because of seasonal adjustement. People lost job but less than a typical Dec-Jan period so it's counted as going "up". Naturally if these tempory job weren't there during the holiday season due to a slower economy then it just screw the unemployment figure even more.
