Current Unemployement rates: State Ranking

BanningZ

I just thought this was interesting, because of how bad the job market is here.

The Department of Labor just released the Unemployment rates for June 2009.

Keep in mind this does not include the people who can no longer receive unemployment benefits but are still unemployed.



Oregon is in 3rd place! Or 49th...whatever. We'll strive for #1.
