In January 2009 According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the Workforce Participation rate when Obama took office was 65.7%. That means 34.3% of the workforce wasn’t even trying to participate, through discouragement, disability, etc. Add 7.8% unemployed, and 57.1% of the American workforce was actually working.

October 2009: The participation rate was 65% just in time for unemployment to hit an even 10%., 55% of the American work force was working.

January, 2012: With unemployment at 8.3%, the workforce participation rate was 63.7% â€" the lowest since records have been kept. That means that overall employment in the American workforce is now 55.2%, marginally higher than at the lowest point of the Obama recession, but nearly two full points lower than it was when Barack Obama took office, and five full points lower than June of 2003, the worst month of George W. Bush’s presidency.

So yes, those of us who can do math are complaining. Decline isn't "slow growth" by any reasonable reckoning. This dismal and outrageously expensive track record should indeed give voters something to think about.
