because of 2008, not because of Pres. Obama, who did not take office until 2009. From 2009-2011, the employment-to-population ratio has remained roughly the same, no worse, no better. If Pres. Obama is to be criticized, then (per said statistic) the criticism would be for not improving things morethings are worse now than before Obama took overDue to 2008, the percentage of the (working age) population employed fell -5%. From 2009-2011, with Pres. Obama in office, that percentage has stabilized. Pres. Obama may not have made things better; he has not made things worse.

The decline was mainly due to 342,000 people leaving the labor force, meaning the BLS had stopped counting them as unemployed. The number of employed people in the nation actually fell by 169,000.
About 12.5 million people are still unemployed, and a record 88.4 million people are considered "not in the labor force," according to the BLS. The labor-force participation rate -- the percentage of the work-age population either working or looking for work -- dropped to 63.6 percent, the lowest since December 1981.

Actually, for the past 29 months, there has been steady job growth.
But still...............there is positive job growth.

You said 29 months positive job growth, I don't think so. Hell just because it's obama you would say 1 job a month was positive job growth.
But not as easy as a CON$ervoFascist lying about it. The BLS keeps track of the number of discouraged workers and when Bush left in Jan 2009 there were 734,000 discouraged workers and in June 2012 there were 821,000, hardly enough to raise UE 4 points. But assuming it does, then it did for Bush too so you must add 4 points to Bush's UE numbers.Gallup polls or surveys households just like the BLS to get his "hard numbers." CON$ have been saying only Gallup is accurate because he does not adjust the hard numbers, so the accurate UE number is 7.9%.Why would I look at a poll VS hard numbers? I mean, why? The only point you have is "look at what a conservative POLLING agency has to say." Thats like comparing polling of an election to the actual election numbers. Here we dont even have but 80k jobs created, UE should have gone up and yet somehow it managed to go down How is that possible, can you tell me?
Think how great Bush's UE numbers would have been if he could subtrack 300,000-400,000 people a month? That's all Obama is doing.
In fact unemployment is 12% if you count the folks who quit looking after BO took over!
It must be easy to get discouraged about finding a job in business when you have the most anti-business president in American history

Are you saying that +1 is actually negative? How does that math work?
From the chart it looks like Obama is doing a good job. With everything that is going on in this country and around the world and we are starting to gain traction into a stronger future. Not too bad I would say. He's seems to be a pretty smart guy. The country might just do pretty well to keep him around for another 4 years.

Things are not like you said they are. You hope people would believe that but what you forget is they believe their wallet, more than any bullshit lie "obama is doing a good job."

It's not good if that's your argument.

Didn't say it was good. But a + is positive and a - is negative. That's how it works. Jobs have been positive, but it hasn't been good.
But it's still positive. And while bad, it's better than negative.It's not good if that's your argument.

1 job a month growth is not good it's bad very very bad.
Depends on whether the "down" parts are negative or just lower positive.Positive job growth would be like steps going up not like a saw blade teeth going up and down.
And mind-numbed fools will consider it the truth.The decline was mainly due to 342,000 people leaving the labor force, meaning the BLS had stopped counting them as unemployed. The number of employed people in the nation actually fell by 169,000.

Obama will consider this a success.......
Why should retired people and the disabled people be counted as IN the workforce????
