The percentage of the workforce has been so low, I've pointed it out before and I get immediately attacked by the Huffer crowd.

The cold hard facts show the economy is still in the dumps.

Let the spin doctors start their wailing!!!

The phony unemployment number still goes down, yet the workforce participation rate still goes down as well, as it has done under the entire Obamalama regime

But Obamabots will continue to praise the phony numbers

Obamacare certainly adds to the "uncertainty" as these news headlines attest!

Nancy Pelosi waxed rhapsodic in 2010 as she imagined the benefits of Obamacare: “Think of an economy where people could be an artist or a photographer or a writer without worrying about keeping their day job in order to have health insurance.”

The College Art Association website posted a notice this month: “The New York Life Insurance Company recently informed CAA that it will no longer offer catastrophic healthcare coverage previously available to CAA members.” Why? Because it “is no longer an option”
