They have revised the US unemployment numbers, it is much higher than first thought.
Before you post, that there are still jobs and you hope retrogression is over. Please think.
These are my neighbors who don't have a job and may loss their homes.
That hospitals are hurting and nurses are also loosing their jobs.
The the US economy has changed and nurses are looking for more work ( second jobs) and nurses are returning back to the bedside.
The trend of importing nurses has stopped and their are no economic incentives for bringing in new nurses ( hospitals could get tax write offs this has stopped).
It is Christmas time, this is only November's number, my guess is December's will be higher. There are families attached to these numbers. How would you feel if over 1.2 million people is your country one month lost their source of income? At and probably to news will be worse!
