236,000 jobs created, and 336,000 people dropped out of the job market. Or something like that. 8.5 Million less jobs now than when the community organizer was anointed. What a great country!

It is worse than that. The JOBS numbers are monthly....the unemployment claims numbers are WEEKLY! You never hear a media mouthpiece for Obama EVER say this. Only that the “jobs created” numbers ‘seem to be’ ‘look like’ ‘show a trend upwards’ and the rest of their lying BS.

I don’t believe anything, any representative of the government who is under control of the Executive Branch says, period. They are liars.

I'm sure my daughter is part of the uptick. She just got a second job to make up for her first job cutting her to 39 hours per week to avoid ObamaCare. This new job is 28 hours per week.

I wonder if she counts as 200% employment (2 jobs) or only 168% ([28+39]/40).

FWIW, neither job pays very well and, as a social work major, she is well aware of government programs which would enable an equal or better lifestyle than she gets working two jobs. But we didn't raise her that way.
