Justin Bieber Featured on Anti-Minimum Wage Increase Billboard

Justin Bieber is featured on a billboard in Los Angeles. For a local tattoo parlor? For a new album? For the Chris Brown Fan Club ? Nope. For MinimumWage.com, an organization that believes a raise in the minimum wage will discourage business owners from hiring, which will negatively affect the unemployment rate among today’s youth. Reads the sign: “Why is Justin Bieber so sad? Could it be because 24% of teens who want a job can’t find one?” We’re guessing it’s because Selena Gomez has left him lost and alone, but hey. The ad then states that “teen unemployment makes us all sad” and that “raising the minimum wage will only make things worse.” It’s unclear whether or not Bieber approved of his visage being used in such a manner, but we strongly doubt it.

Unemployment Rate Drops To Below 8% The Bureau of Labor Statistics has released the latest batch of unemployment numbers and the jobs report, and it seems like things might be finally starting to look up. Think Progress According to the latest data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics, 88,000 jobs were created last month, and the unemployment rate ticked down to 7.6 percent largely because the participation rate dropped. Analysts had expected 190,000 jobs. The private sector added 95,000 jobs, while the public sector contracted again, losing another 7,000 jobs. The February job numbers were revised from 236,000 to 268,000, while January’s numbers were revised from 119,000 to 148,000. Although these actual numbers don’t quite add up to those that were projected, it’s certainly an improvement from where we were last time this year. Shutterstock

Mitt Romney "Day One" Ads Preview Presidential Goals

Mitt Romney’s “Day One” ads, outlining what he’d do in his first 24 hours on the job, sure make it sound like he’d be a good President of the United States. But are they realistic? Some things he promises in the TV spots, such as expediting the Keystone pipeline and ending Obamacare, he probably could do, or at least play a major role in. Others, such as lifting job-killing regulations and lowering the unemployment rate, are more nebulous. It’s easier to run for President than to be President. Watch the ads below and see what the Republican’s presidency would look like … or at least how he envisions it in an idealized campaign commercial.
