If you want to see a graphical representation of what the last two years have been like from an unemployment perspective, clink on the interesting link below. For one thing, it shows the magnitude of the task before all of us with regard to job creation. If you created any jobs last year, give yourself a pat on the back. But also it shows how the Baltimore-Washington corridor fared much better than most of the rest of the country, with the exception of the agricultural economies in the Midwest. As the holidays roll around, it's well to remember that we reside in a fortunate area and should do our best to try and grow jobs - because it won't be long before people in more desperate areas of the country start migrating here in search of work.
