Unemployment in South Carolina reached 11 percent in February, a “dramatic increase from January’s 10.3 percent.” Five counties in the state face more than 20 percent unemployment, with the highest, Allendale County, at 23.4 percent. Even as he is being warned about enusing “chaos,” Gov. Mark Sanford (R-SC) continues his efforts to block $700 million in federal stimulus aid to the state, a move that could result in at least 4,700 teachers and prison guards being laid off.

It's up to the people of that State to do something as it gets worse everyday. Not only is the Govenor refusing the help but even Senator Graham. It's like they want these people to have nothing while they live it up. Look for the Law Makers who stole big bucks to buy up the property of those their denying help. Yes the South really knows how to bring back the pass. It's land these guys are after and it's time the people remove the trash and crooks from office. SC might be the first US Pottersville.
