Economy Booming!
Job growth slowed in December - following a big hiring spurt in November - with employers expanding payrolls by just 108,000, underscoring the sometimes choppy path traveled by job seekers.
The Labor Department's fresh snapshot of the nation's jobs climate, released Friday, also showed that the unemployment rate dipped from 5 percent in November to 4.9 percent in December, as some people left the labor market for any number of reasons.
Did you catch that? Unemployment is 4.9%! Should be front page news, but of course it won't be.
