THE EMPLOYMENT NUMBERS ARE WORSE THAN STATED

Notice the big drop since in the past 2-3 years. Go back to 66% civilian participation and the unemployment rate skyrockets. If the job market was indeed getting better, this chart would not be diving. Or maybe the ATMs are the culprit.
The biggest drop in this chart since 1950 seems to occur since the current president took office. The only other noticeable drop appears to occur during the Clinton presidency but not near as severe. I guess change is all we will have left in our pockets.
