At this time, March of 2012 the unemployment rate is going down. This is a mixture of new jobs added to the economy and persons who were actively looking for work quitting as discouraged and are no longer counted as looking for work.

People lose their job all the time. People will lose their jobs for a variety of reasons, but they go on to find another job. They may find a better job or they may be forced to take a worse job (by some measure) than they had.

So to answer "how many people are losing their jobs?" would take quite a feat of mathematical juggling. But in February 2012 the Bureau of Labor Statistics (WWW.BLS.GOV) estimated 12,806,000 unemployed persons.
