Jobs report shows growth in private sector

The latest jobs report shows that the Obama administration's efforts to spend their way out of the recession -- despite conservative concerns over the method -- are paying off.



Though unemployment numbers went up (attributed to a number of Americans who had given up now re-searching for employment), it appears that almost 300,000 new jobs were created in April.

That's the largest increase in four years. Most of these jobs, too, have come from the private sector.

If ever there was proof that the stimulus package was working, this is it. If these trends continue, the Democrats will have something strong to run on come November of this year.
