More folks back activity looking for employment, I expect that one of key reason the number edge up to 7.9% vs going down or staying at the same rate. Not great but not total disaster. More slow steady muddling progress.

It is really bad. This long into a recovery we should be adding jobs at a rate to move unemployment down. Obama can barely add enough to avoid this being another recession. Seriously we are like 1% growth away from going the wrong direction.
Country needs a change.
