About This Episode

This morning we learned that 2.5 million jobs were added in May, and that the unemployment rate fell from 14.7% to 13.3%. That was a surprise to virtually all economic forecasters. That has led some to conclude that this recession, which has not been officially declared, may turn out to be the shortest on record.
