this word about illinois jobs

Julie Johnson has a take on the loss of jobs in Illinois. I took a look at the numbers just released.

Here it is:

Last released: Illinois' unemployment rate: 6.8%, 25% more than the national average (5.5%), and at its highest point since June 1993. Since the last decade 727,000 people have moved from Illinois. Illinois could lose another congressional district as a result.

ILLINOIS RANKS AS THE 45TH STATE IN ATTRACTING COLLEGE GRADUATES.

Illinois DID lose another Congressional seat as an effect of the 2010 Census.
