Employment
The employment picture has certainly improved. Guess WalMart has opened quite a few new stores lately!

It's not spectacular at 211,000 jobs created (you need 150,000-175,000 to stay even with population growth) but it is now a pattern of a few months of growth.

Now if we could just get some increases in wages and real wages vs. inflation (have you bought a gallon of gas lately?)
