This is pathetic, are we as a country honestly all supposed to rejoyce over the fact that 169,000 payroll jobs where created across the United States, I wonder how many of those 169,000 went to actual Unemployed Americans who are qualified for the job, not some high tech immigrant from another country! All while millions are unemployed or who knows the number of underemployed and just lost hope all together?
They consider a Health Care worker a low-wage sector job? No wonder so much illness is being spread. Why, shouldn't this nations health be one of the utmost important things?

But Lucky Day, I'm happy they created 169,000 jobs last month.
