California has lost 113,100 jobs since August 2009, when the unemployment rate was 12%. By Alana Semuels, Los Angeles Times September 17, 2010|9:21 a.m. California lost 33,500 jobs in August, marking the third straight month of payroll cuts and pushing the unemployment rate up to 12.4%. That number of job losses is more than the revised 22,900 jobs cut from payrolls in July, according to data released Friday from the Employment Development Department. There were 2.3 million unemployed Californians in August. Get a daily snapshot of market numbers and trends, delivered right to your mobile phone. Text BUSINESS to 52669. Construction, manufacturing, financial activities, government, leisure and hospitality, trade, transportation and utilities lost jobs over the month. Government has lost 47,700 jobs over the year. Educational and health services, mining and logging and professional and business services gained jobs over the year. The state has lost 113,100 jobs since August 2009, when the unemployment rate was 12%. The unemployment rate in Los Angeles County rose to 12.6% from 12.4% in July. Eddie Karimi, 25, lost his job as a security guard in April 2009 and has only found one or two day-long minimum wage jobs since then. His father also lost his job recently, which means there's no income to support their four-person family, or pay the $1,100 a month rent on their Tujunga apartment. They're just one of the families that, because of unemployment, has fallen into poverty. The Census Bureau released data Thursday showing that one in seven families in the U.S. live below the poverty line. "I've been looking for every single type of work out there," Karimi said. "But we're barely making ends meet." DON'T SHOOT, THEY'RE CALIFORNIANS, LET'EM BURN"

The loss of 47,700 gov jobs I would think would be considered a good thing by most here. The state was plainly overbuilt during the Bush years as he must have had plans to clothe, house and feed most of Mexico here. But hopefully you will be moving out soon. That will get rid of another deadbeat goldbricker.
Hey, I pay taxes to this state as my business is here, yet my family resides in another state. BURN MOTHERFUCKER, BURN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
BURN MOTHERFUCKER, BURN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Stupid is as stupid does.
Yeah darling, keep telling yourself that. I fleeced this state when I sold my home for nearly $700,000 in profits. Unlike you, I got out while the going was good. You're all going to shit ming.
Good land for growing wine grapes didn't depreciate, dummy.
Sorry, the guy who bought my house is now underwater on his loan. Leave the economics to the people with the cowbell between their legs Mini. Your place is in the kitchen.
Yep...YOU caused the financial crisis more than Clinton or Cuomo ever did.
And how is that? This should be worth a laugh or two.
