So that's less than half of what economists had predicted would be created,” said Thomas "Danny" Boston, professor in the School of Economics. “It's bad on the surface and better underneath. [There is] a net increase of almost 1 million people having come into the labor market over a period of two months and the unemployment rate only ticked up by 0.1%. That means some significant jobs have been created.” Source: CNN – June 1, 2012
