So THAT'S why Obama said the path isn't easy and he needs more time in his acceptance speech last night (since he KNEW what today's jobs report would say before anyone else did last night--Presidents get this info 24 hours earlier than the public).
The economy only created 96,000 jobs last month and the unemployment rate dropped to 8.1% because people are giving up on even LOOKING for work not because more people are employed.
AND the June and July figures were revised DOWNWARD by another 41,000 jobs compared to what they were first reported. Worse news?? Only 63.5% of those of working age are either employed or even LOOKING for employment, meaning that near 40% of the people you meet EVERYDAY are just sitting at home, doing nothing...
Epic fail via demonstrable facts...not opinion.
August unemployment report...
