Household Survey Shows Employment Continuing Swiftly Down

From Aug to Oct 2009, the Household Survey shows employment falling 1.4 million (sic).

This is one of the largest two month drops during this recession. That measure of employment hasn't been this low in six years (back when the population was significantly less).
