Good morning, Freepers and DUers alike. It is time once again for the weekly unemployment insurance initial claims report.

Here for your viewing pleasure are this week's data, brought to you as a nonpartisan public service. This is just one example of the good work your civil servants are performing for you.

That word "initial" is important. The report does not count all claims, just the new ones filed this week.

Claims went back up this week.
