Voice of the People: March 18, 2013

(WTNH) -- Tonight many of you have a lot to say about a new state labor report, that shows good job numbers for Connecticut. Here's tonight's Voice of the People.

David from Bridgeport said, "I can't believe this, good job numbers. It must have gotten so bad that today, having part-time jobs, minimum wage jobs are coming up as good job numbers. Minimum wage, you can't live on it, get us some real jobs guys."

Eric from Oxford said, "On the job numbers that the state came out with, that's all malarkey, nobody knows what's going on. Every time you find an application you need to wait two or three months for a phone call if you get one. Connecticut is not doing too well people."

Janet from Milford said, "They're basing that on the Department of Labor, how about all of the people who have exhausted their benefits and are still not working. There's probably 150,000, I just thought I'd let you know."

Don from Branford said, "Being a former supermarket manager, I can tell you that supermarkets lose hundreds of thousands of dollars from people who take these carriages. If a policeman saw someone coming out of the store with $20 worth of steaks, they'd arrest them. Yet, you see these people walking around with these 150 to 200 dollar carriages on the street. They're obviously stolen and nobody does anything to them."
