Ship Of State Needs A Bailout

(Actually, at this point, I think I'd settle for an acknowledgement from Bushco that we even exist.)

This story shouldn't surprise me in the least. I think this paragraph is the most telling one:

"The cuts are not necessarily an indication of economic weakness, but rather the by-product of numerous trends, including changing consumer demand, outsourcing, mergers and acquisitions, automation and consolidation. We are also starting to see job cuts resulting from higher health care costs as well as higher oil and natural gas prices," said John A. Challenger, chief executive officer of Challenger, Gray & Christmas.
Just look on the bright side, though. If this affects you, you can just take whatever you may get in unemployment and stay longer at Morry's Pier in Wildwood and blow it on rides for the kids, since you won't have a job to go back to.

Grrrr.....
