The bright side of unemployment: "According to new data unveiled by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics last week, there were 4,430 workplace fatalities last year compared with 5,214 in 2008.

I'm sure those spared by a future on-the-job accident by being laid off found another way to die.
Hey, the film industry gets to claim bigger and bigger movies by ignoring inflation, instead of using something logical, like percentage of the population that saw said movie. So, yeah, numbers can tell you anything you want.
You're burying the lede: That's 4,430 positions that need to be filled!
