Just when liberals were cheering the anemic employment numbers for September (142,000- we need 180,000 to 200,000 to "break even" with new potential employees entering the market), the real numbers showing the disaster of the Obama economy were revealed.

90,609,000: Americans Not in Labor Force Climbs to Another Record | CNS News

90 million unemployed

10 million "new" unemployed citizens under Obama

workforce participation at 63%- the lowest since the Great Depression


The apparent Obama plan- achieve "equality" by making everyone poor.

LoL, so if you are retired and disabled now...you are considered unemployed?

Talk about just making up numbers.

Why are the retirees not being replaced by the young people and females as mentioned?

The 5 year old Cerebral Palsy patient that my wife cares for and my 92 year old father have both been unable to find work. Thanks Obama!

The flailing and desperation of conservatives is embarrassing.

3 of the 5 posts are not even responding to the story, I guess better to deflect than talk about it....

For shame posters!

You are not to read past the headline of the article, or the title created by the OP.

It is considered rude to apply any type of 'critical thinking', or to mouth such things as "But the Baby Boomers are now retiring at a rate of 300,000 per month, so why are they included in the number", or "But women in the USA are giving birth at a rate of 1.89, or below the rate needed for the population to increase'.

I shall join Hawkeye in condemning President Obama for people retiring, or women not giving birth at a sustainable rate. Ah! If only Senator McCain had been elected, or that other guy (I forget his name) in 2012, then you would have seen some vastly different numbers!

That would have required their conservative readers to read the last two paragraphs and we all know the Cons only read the headline and the first paragraph, so retired people are all Obama's fault in the eyes of the Cons.

Did you read the article or just the headline? It tells you the truth in the numbers at the end of the article.
