Did CBS leave out a critical fact? Nah, they wouldn't do that.

Record 94,031,000 Americans Not in Labor Force; Participation Rate Stuck at 38-Year Low for 3rd Straight Month. Sept. 4, 2015.

Well, I lost my job — for not being Hispanic, never mid bilingual. Medical field jobs in texas, forget it. Press 2

The Labor Department says the unemployment rate fell to 5.1 percent

Interestingly, they don't say, "the unemployment rate fell to 5.1 percent," just that Obama''s minions claim it fell. Even the media no longer believe the whoppers told in DC.

And just how many of these jobs are 40 hrs/week and pay benefits?

They never say, do they?

Besides 189,000 new jobs over a population of 315 million is anemic.

Too many of them are service jobs. Nothing wrong with them - except they are low paying. The people doing them want better jobs and there aren’t many opportunities for them to move up the employment ladder.

Trading good paying jobs for low wage jobs is like buying stocks high and selling them low - a good way to go broke.

Those working are going to say frig it soon enough. Will they then say the unemployment rate is zero because no one is looking for work?

I really never understood “added new jobs”.

Are these positions that didn’t exist prior to August 1st ?
or are these open positions that were filled since August 1st ?
