Things are getting a little better here job wise, but not by leaps and bounds. Sadly I think they are still battling this law out in the courts. Typical red tape crap.

It's slow all over, Dave. That was the biggest hole we've had to dig ourselves out of since the '30's. At least the Prez didn't let the auto industry go belly up like the Republican party was all for back in '08 - '09.

That's everywhere, Dave. Around here they're sweating the defense cuts. They've finally realized just how dependent they are on the government teet. They Mayor of Norfolk stated that defense spending alone accounts for ~45% of his cities tax revenues. Newport News stated defense and other federal spending related tax revenues at ~37%. This place will drop like a rock if the cuts are deep enough.

You know me better than that, Was.
It must be Obama's fault that the economy is getting better despite the best efforts of the Teabaggers in congress.
