Can anyone clarify the "economy is real good" part? I'm a computer programmer who's job was offshored and was part of the telecom industry
which went down the tubes. Middle aged.....no comparable jobs to what i
had....if and a big if somebody wants you because of your age. Just wondering if we took all the people whos unemployment ran out and no longer count in the unemployment statistics and counted these people
what would the unemployment rate IN NJ be? Each month people roll off
and relatively the same number go on which keeps the rate at a supposed 5%. We could have a fake 5% rate forever that way. And if you look at every economic survey for the state of NJ and do your research on the economy in NJ the economy in NJ is poor....Thats just a fact. We lost all the manufacturing jobs and now all the high-tech jobs. Do the research. So where does this "the economy is good" mentality develop from?
