Current event

      President Obama said the economy has been creating more jobs lately, but we need to be doing more about unemployment. In April, 115,000 fewer jobs were created than expected, but Obama stated that more than 1 million jobs have been created in the past 6 months. The jobless rate went from 8.2 percent in March to 8.1 percent in April.       I completely agree that we should be doing more to create jobs in the US. I have worried about my future several times because of the shortage of jobs. I think it is encouraging to hear that unemployment is going down. I think the government should dedicate more time and money to solving the unemployment problem. More jobs would provide people with more money to spend. If people have more money to spend, the economy will improve. I believe that the cost of creating more jobs would be paid back in the long run.
