Note: date on the website says 10/21, but numbers were released today - so I'm assuming that is wrong.
So less jobs were created than expected (drink!) and the unemployment rate goes down instead of remaining steady. Are they even trying to make the numbers realistic anymore?

Hallelujah!
BTW, the working age population increased by 175,000.
So that's only a net shortage of 27,000!

How many of the jobs added recently are busywork government jobs or contractor jobs related to ObamaCare?
Whatever the number is, it’s too many.

What percentage were part-time jobs? The Democrats call these “burger flipper” jobs.

Economists had predicted the addition of 180,000 new jobs last month < /snurk> And which economists are these? I want the names of these useless idiots.

And laid off over 1.2 million. How many of those found jobs and how many have now been “written off” the unemployment books?

“and the unemployment rate goes down instead of remaining steady. “
That is why the Dow is up. Wall Street now sees the Fed not tapering bond purchases. They see low interest rates continuing and see that as supporting stock prices.
In other words; yes they see the fact that people are dropping out of the labor market; and see it as a very bad thing.
