While earlier this week, I shared Murphy and Bishop’s reporting on job losses affecting urban more than rural areas, their posting this week shows that in December, things got worse in rural America:
In the last 13 months, the number of unemployed people living in rural America has increased by 297,000. All but 15,000 of those jobs were lost in one month, December 2008.
