It's interesting to note that more people are gainfully employed today than
during Bush's entire first term.

It is also interesting to note that the population has increased
almost 10% but the number of employed has only gone up about 3%.
27,000,000 vs 1,000,000. I wouldn't call that sucess.

"Gainfully" is another gotcha. More may be employed, but a higher
percentage of them are in low end jobs with non-livable wages. It's only
going to get worse since the damage to the economy has consistently
occurred under administrations left and right for decades.
