It does not take into consideration people who have stopped looking for work or who have run out of benefits. Of course the rates were going down, so many people were out of work for so long that they ran out of unemployment benefits. They were reporting 3% unemployment under Obama when the real rates were well into the double digits. It's sad that they have to use such a misleading statistic to even hope to put Obama in a good light.<img src="/community/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/frown.png"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":(" title="Frown    :(" data-shortname=":(" /></p></blockquote><p></p>
