Re: U.S. Adds Only 88,000 Jobs; Jobless Rate Falls to 7.6%
Yes, they are dropping, however if you look a graph you would see them trending down beginning in 2000. So, I don't think you can put the blame on President Obama. The baby boomers are beginning to retire and people are retiring much sooner. Also, it appears as though more and more young adults are seeking college education.

So tell me how anyone can claim Obama's record as positive with the labor participation rate dropping?
