When Did Your County's Jobs Disappear?

1. Speaking of the employment situation, Junior Achievement just put out a new report about how the country needs a more “Entrepreneurial Workforce” to remain competitive. It’s kind of a different way of looking at the problem. Here’s the link http://www.ja.org/files/The_Entrepreneurial_Workforce_full-11.pdf.

2. This is just amazing… Reminds me of what Community Wizard could be like, too. It really sums ups what’s happening to me in job loss… Wow!

3. Excellent presentation of data. Unfortunately, it looks like someone dropped nukes on all of our cities.

   Sorry I haven’t had the opportunity to chase this down myself, but does anyone know an easy way to find total jobs nationally, and in each county. I’d like to get an idea of percentage of job losses by county. In fact, that would be an interesting way to see this graphic presented – displaying percent job loss by county in addition to aggregate losses (would normalize the graphic for a more fair comparison across counties)
