State unemployment figures released yesterday show the unemployment rate for Berlin is the highest in the state at 9.5 percent.
The January figures show the state unemployment rate is 5.7. Coos County registered a rate of 8.4 percent.
The city's unemployment rate is expected to get worse in the next two months as the impact of the Isaacson closing shows up in the statistics.
Isaacson Steel, one of the big employers wasn't able to reorganize after filing bankruptcy, and so 100+ more folks will be out of work - with no end in sight, and certainly no plans to help these people is forthcoming.
Meanwhile our legislators concern themselves with repealing marriage equality, passing right to work, and ensuring that women are discriminated against by their health insurance companies THEN lied to by their doctors, should they chose to avail themselves of the LEGAL medical procedure known as abortion.
