Overall, U.S. employers added 223,000 jobs in April. The unemployment rate fell to 5.4 percent, the lowest level since May 2008.

Companies in the U.S. boosted employment in June by the most in six months, signaling that the job market is strengthening, according to a private report based on payrolls. The 237,000 increase followed a revised 203,000 rise in the prior month.

“The U.S. job machine remains in high gear,” Mark Zandi, chief economist at Moody’s Analytics in West Chester, Pa., said in a statement.Moody’s produces the figures with ADP.
The current robust pace of job growth is double that needed to absorb the growth in the working age population,” Zandi said

When WalMart closes, you know the economy is VERY BAD !!!

The stores being shuttered account for a fraction of the company's 11,000 stores worldwide and less than 1 percent of its global revenue.

More than 95 percent of the stores set to be closed in the U.S. are within 10 miles of another Wal-Mart. The Bentonville, Arkansas, company said it is working to ensure that workers are placed in nearby locations.

Nope it's just corporate greed.

Yeah it's shame most are in redneck states, LOL.

The economy cannot support these businesses. If these stores were lucrative, they would stay open.

IF the economy was so good, they would have kept these stores open, and STILL opened new ones, cretin.

Edge, you are the one who has their head stuck in the sand, and refuses to believe what you see in regards to the economy.
