and tony bashara, president of babich and associates. author of, the job search solution. a dynamite panel to start with. thanks for coming in. bob, first to you. why is it that 47 people thrown up their hand on getting a new job? >> gerri, many of them out there looking for work and they just haven't found the right opportunity for themselves. many would need to be reeducated for the jobs that are available and they're not willing to do that. but more than that, i think the government and we need to concentrate on job creation, not job deprivation. the job creation is out here with the medium and small sized companies. 9% of the companies in america have less than 100 employees -- 9%. with more government regulation, small and mead women business is just not going to add jobs. >> bob, are you saying it is the economy? >> it is the economy and the economy is in worse shape than what is determined. the unemployment rate at 6.3 is really unrealistic, if you will. i think it is probably more like 10% plus. gerri: wow. >> and as we see people coming in looking for jobs. last y
