In a ray of hope for frustrated job seekers, a survey of leading U.S. chief executives released on Wednesday showed 33 percent expect their companies to add jobs over the next six months, up from 25 percent when a similar survey was released in December.
The poll from the Business Roundtable, the country's main association of CEOs, showed 45 percent expecting no change in employment at their companies while 22 percent expect jobs to decline over the next six months.

Factories hummed and consumers kept cash registers busy in the first two months of this year, fresh evidence the economic recovery is moving ahead, according to a Federal Reserve report Wednesday.

This is good news. Slow methodic economic growth is much preferred over rapid growth.

"Even with the pickup in factory activity, manufacturers have lost 3 million jobs since July 2000.
On the jobs front, however, the report found employment "growing slowly" in most central bank districts.
A separate survey of chief executives of the nation's biggest companies suggested hiring could start to pick up. One-third of the executives said they expected to increase hiring in the next six months, while 22% expected to cut payrolls and 45% expected no change"
Yep, 3 million people don't exist. Nearly a quarter of all CEO's will Lay Off more people, yep a lot of hot air alright![]()

The economy can't judged by any one company.
If gateway is laying off, it could be because they aren't competing well with dell.
Even in the late 90s companies who performed poorly laid people off and went out of business.

Yep, all those posts of thousands and thousands never happened even though they are right in fron of your noses.
How can they be performing poorly, if the Economy is booming??? You guys are hysterical.

Dave, I challenge you to find one single post, JUST ONE, where someone (other than yourself) claims the economy is "soaring" or "booming" or "fantastic". Are you up for the challenge?
I think you'll find plenty that say "recovering" or "growing" or "improving" because that is what it is...

Exact words of many articles as well as CAD and Charrison.
Later CAD & Co retrenched to the wuss drivel words you just typed out.
I challenge you to, How long do we have to listen to this "recovering" or "growing" or "improving" crap before ever seeing anything really happening? 2 years, 4 year 10 years , what?

Your "considerably" is a spit in the face and a joke to millions of Americans. Disgusting
"stock market has recovered"
Rich Boys playing Monopoly is hardly "recovered".
"inflation is low"
Not for long, Greenspan keeps yelping he has to raise the rates, his Rich Boy Bankers have been floating everybody too long and they want to crank their profits up.
"GDP is making great strides"
Return to legal slavery is a great thing for Production.
"etc"
You can't even stand on the rest of the drivel nevermind "etc".

Since you never answered in the other thread - what is the current unemployment rate in Georgia dave?
And yes - Unemployment is down considerably since the effects of the Recession. It's at 5.6...but then again you don't believe the gov't number system they've used. Plus you don't believe the other lesser used system - I guess you must be an expert then - no?

I've posted the numbers and remarks from the Georgia Labor Commissioner. He paints a pretty grim picture but that has to be because he is one of the only Democrats left other than the Lt Governor and AG right?
Must be a better expert than the "experts" to not lose millions of people. Go ahead though, you and The President keep spitting in the face of millions of out of work Americans for 8 more months.
Due to incredible demand there is currently a 2 week delay in getting Modems available
Please refrain from calling the Manufacturer's (Zoom) 800 Number.
Some Retail Store Locations such as Microcenter may still have some Modems on the shelves. They may also possibly have a website available as well.
I had someone here in the Atlanta area able to get a X5 from the Atlanta Microcenter store.
--------------------------------------
I know if you are trying to purchase a Modem and hate to see this backlog, it is actually a very good thing for the U.S. DSL Market, that means DSL is growing at a pace that the U.S. should be growing at and people are demanding other DSL Modem alternatives other than what the Phone Companies push onto people. Thank you everyone.

It should expand for at least a few more months, and perhaps even past the election and into next year a bit.
Before the collapse that is.
Credit card economics aint gonna work this time around.
The trick for most people is figure out the peak month before dumping all stocks and funds.
