"Marilyn, from Atlanta, GA writes: I keep reading about how the economy is turning around. However, I see more and more people out of work, more houses reposessed, more qualified people accepting lower status and lower paying jobs. Now we're battling inflation on top of this decline.

John Snow: More Americans are working today in America than at any other time in our history and more own their own home. At the same time, real disposable income is at an all-time high.

The unemployment rate is lower than the average of the 1970s, 1980s and 1990s. In nine consecutive months of job growth we’ve added more than 1.4 millions jobs.

We’re encouraged by this, but not satisfied. There is more to be done and the President is committed to ensuring that every American looking for work can find a job.
