On December 31, 1999, there were 130.53 million persons employed in the US

Posted by Brian (aka trav007) Jul 2 '09, 13:39

As of June of 2009, there were 131.69 million persons employed in the US.

If the US loses 1.6 million more jobs this year, an entire decade will have gone by with zero net jobs created in the United States.
