So it bothers me that people don't get it that when unemployment is under 5 percent, that is is not a true number and it doesn't reflect a feel good number or improvement. There has been improvement but not as much as the rate says it is. And more people are only part time instead of full time, that sucks and has to do with health insurance and benefits I'm sure. Others gave up looking for jobs.

Only 62.7% ( 62.6% in May) of Americans are working, doesn't that bother people?

The middle class is not getting ahead, just barely getting by as reflected by wages that are stagnant and have not improved in 20 years.

So 92 million do not work

When you own the media you report your agenda !
5% is bulls hit

More about nothing ... it been the same for decades Historically has noting to do with the POTUS

Critics of Obama think it shows that his supposedly liberal policies are damaging the economy and prompting Americans to drop out of the job market en masse. They think it shows the Democratic neo-welfare state this president constructed is rewarding laziness by doling out government handouts. They think it somehow shows that the sharp decline in the US unemployment rate is a fraud.
