That's not unusual for the labor force to drop like that in January.

When those projects started, the builders, the developers could not find the labor force. And as the word got out it traveled fast, and so people started coming. As people started coming, they said, 'Hey, there's a lot of work here,' and so that's what sort of triggered it.

It's a statewide battle. When businesses started to hire back, we see a corresponding increase in the labor force. It makes it hard to bring down the unemployment rate.

The labor force remained constant. There weren't a lot of changes.

We think there is a missing labor force.

The disintegration of organized labor as a major force in the legislative process often means that there is no counterbalance to their views. You have an 800-pound gorilla battling no one.
