Obama can lie about the unemployment numbers all he wants but this chart tells the truth. The labor force has been shrinking all the while Obama has been in office and that is the only reason unemployment is not over 10%.

This is true. I run a side business where I offer an affordable opportunity to own your own business. More and more people are getting tired of the up and down--high risk with the least reward--that the job market has become under Bush and Obama. I try to help anyone who is interested because this is becoming an epidemic.

It has been shrinking for years, many I know have given up.

It's the discouraged workers not being counted in unemployment numbers that have shot up dramatically. Real unemployement is still above 20%.
