The headline says,

'Unemployment Drops to 8.6%, from 9%'. Sounds good, huh, until you look at the numbers.  The US added 120,000 jobs last month. It takes 150k/month to break even, with new workers entering the workforce. 300,000 gave up, or exhausted unemployment benefits, so they 'no longer count'. Wonderful, what the gov't can do with figures, in an economy with unemployment actually approaching 20%, with many working part-time and min wage jobs. Where's it gonna end, after GW killed our economy?
