That's the number of jobs lost in June. It's a bunch worse than last month and it brings the unemployment rate to a 26-year-high of 9.5%. Thankfully, though, I worship CNBC and according to them the recession is over. So screw the jobless recovery. Screw the unemployed. Wall Street's doing better and my investment banker just got a raise. If they're willing to brush the struggling riffraff under the rug then who am I to judge?
