Michigan Sucks

Michigans unemployment rate for February was made public this week.

12%

Michigan posted its third straight month of painful, double-digit unemployment in February, with a nation-leading 12 percent of the state's work force out of a job.

The national unemployment rate, meanwhile, grew to 8.1 percent in February, as economic turmoil deepens beyond the borders of Michigan.

80% of the job losses in Michigan have come from the manufacturing sector.

Sucks to be us.
