I know how inconvenient it is that the labor participation rate magically dropped precipitously in the last three years because it does not fit the template. Face it dude, without those millions leaving the workforce unemployment numbers reported by the govt media would be up, up, up. Man this is a hard one for you. I understand, grasping at straws with the only so called piece of good news that you can come up with regarding your beloved messiah and his failed economic policies. I give you credit, even the looney leftists on TV don't make up as much stuff as you.
Heres the table from BLS for non farm job growth or loss by month. Add all the numbers from Jan 2009 to December 2012 and you get -368,000. And yes, I will preempt you and say all the losses came in 2009-2010 but just look at the pathetic, paltry numbers in the last two years. Most of them were below population growth. My whole point, which is not in dispute by anyone but you is that this recovery has been pathetic as evidenced by job growth, GDP, unemployment, dependence on food stamps, unemployment insurance extensions, people going on SS disability, foreclosures, etc., etc., etc. Archie, if you could only set aside your blind hatred of me and all conservatives and admit what is blindingly obvious we could probably have a more constructive dialogue.
