@602Sounder The reason the unemployment rate dropped today is because 368k Americans stopped looking for work.

@602Sounder If millions of Americans hadn't dropped out of the labor force under Obama, the unemployment rate would be 11.2%.

All the unemployment figures are averages..what about the states where it is 20 to 25 percent?? A LONG way from 8 percent. Get real!!

I'm tired of the snide remarks from Obama &

Has Krauthammer ever done an honest day's work ? Just why is he qualified to talk of unemployment numbers?

Unemployment rate only dropped because more people are out of labor force &

Unemployed As Of Now..But Not For Longgg! (:

@ninakillen @jreedmp EG Labour always quote female unemployment when male unemployment is higher in every constituency in the country.

Ugh stupid little boy. I was the only thing between u and unemployment and you went and pissed me off!! Oh well, ta ta!!

@602Sounder Instead, the unemployment rate is 8.1% because there are fewer people being counted in the labor force. It's a disaster.

This is impossible, I am currently unemployed. #college @d0nvu

That nigga with a million followers that same nigga sitting at home , unemployed, asking his mama for money..

Unemployment went down because people quit checking in at the DOL and gave up. That's #Economics101. Don't fall for the hype.

@MittRomney 8.1% +8.1%+8.1%+8.1% = 4 yrs of Obama Unemployment. #DNC Bill Clinton forgot to carry the One Term President Obama..tsk tsk

@ewerickson Were the 'thank you' signs at the DNC for unemployment still over 8% or the $16 trillion in debt?

@OlivierPoinsign France should follow Uk, Germany. Despite slow even shrinking economies labour market reform has made unemployment fall.

So, if we wait till there is a WORK force LESS than a WORKING force, will there be a zero percent unemployment? #tcot #teaparty #gop

Unemployment Drops to 5.1 Percent—For Government Workers

@anantucketlady You're right. Much of the drop in the jobless rate was due to more people dropping out of the labor force
