It was the largest percentage increase in 22 years. The jobless rate for African American rose from 8.6 percent in April to 9.7 percent a month later.

 One of the great ironies of the current campaign season, is the assumption by so many Black voters that by supporting Barack Obama for president, they are making a real contribution to African American self-determination. Nothing could be further from the truth. The candidate, himself, is mightily opposed to the principle of African American self-determination, as he revealed in great detail and beyond doubt in rejecting Rev. Jeremiah Wright's narrative on America's origins. Obama also has no more respect than other corporate politicians for ObamaLecturnprinciples of international law and the sovereignty of nations. Should he win the presidency, U.S. militarization of African will continue, as will American bullying of its Latin American neighbors.

Many people believe that not making enough money is the reason for their financial problems. Yet of even high-wage earners, those earning over $100,000 a year, nearly 20% live paycheck-to-paycheck and 30% save less $250 a month.
Furthermore, of those workers earning over $100,000 a year, 18% could only continue their lifestyle for a month or less if they lost their income.
