Why?

The last time I used Dept of Labor data, it was 2-3 years old!  Why would this app help anyone?  And why can't the Dept of Labor simply host a website where data can be searched / downloaded?

    We tend to expect the Government to do everything for us unfortunately that is not going to happen there is no way that it could happen to serve everybody. It is to our advantage to take advantage of such opportunities.

    Tim, the data provided for this challenge is updated annually and is the most comprehensive data available. We DO host a website where the data can be searched and/or downloaded, but the idea here is to encourage the public to find innovative ways to make the data more consumer friendly.
