N.C. Jobless Rate Hits Six-Year High
Statewide unemployment hit 7 percent in September, the highest since January 2002, as the fallout from the national economic downturn seeps deeper.
September was the ninth consecutive month in which the state’s joblessness rose, increasing from 6.9 percent in August. Statewide unemployment remains higher than the national average, which stood at 6.1 percent last month
FACT: N.C. has the highest corporate taxes of any state in the southeast.
FACT: One party has dominated N.C. politics for the last 16 years. Guess which one.
Just sayin’…
