According the Las Vegas Sun: "For the second consecutive month, Nevada placed second in the nation for its unemployment rate, trailing only Michigan.
The U.S. Department of Labor said today Nevada’s rate of 13.3 percent was second to Michigan’s 15.3 percent in September.
The state reported Tuesday there were 190,700 workers who were jobless in September. And the 13.3 percent is a record for the state." http://www.lasvegassun.com/news/2009/oct/21/nevadas-jobless-rate-second-nation-after-michigan/
So, apparently the stimulus is not working for Nevada. Harry Reid, when he is not causing job loss personally, apparently cannot do anything about the unemployment rate, even though he is one of the most powerful person in the country.
The fact is, is no one, whether is the Messiah Obama, Reid or any Republican can do anything about the job loss. The so-called stimulus was a give away to special interests, not job creation. Right now, other than tax breaks for hiring people, there is not much government can do. But they won't stop trying and screwing things up even more.
But hey, while millions of Americans are out of work and suffering, Obama can be partying up at all the different music he is bringing into the White House. http://www.azcentral.com/ent/celeb/articles/2009/10/14/20091014fiesta.html
