Description

The US economy is gaining steam, according to new figures released today by the Labor Department. More than 170 thousand jobs were added in August and consumers are gaining confidence. But for some, the effects of the recession are still being felt longer than by others. More than 4 million Americans have been out of work for at least six months. Al Jazeera's John Hendren reports from Chicago.
