The remaining states have lost a combined 1.4 million jobs since January 2009.
Even 34 months after the recession officially ended in June 2009, there are still 11 states that have fewer people working now than at the start of the recovery.
The recession officially ended? Always have to scoff at that line.
The article goes on to express that while Texas & North Dakota have been the leaders in job growth, places like California have been the biggest bastions of job loss. Umm, just throwing this out there, but...could we be witnessing the differences between conservative policies and contrasting liberal ones? One more cheer for federalism and free markets.
