How could the government be this "inefficient?"

Unemployement drops again, the stock market is regularly going up, the housing market is increasing and GDP is going up again.
I blame Obama.
Just think of how much farther along the recovery would be if we had a congress that actually wanted America to do well, not just obstruct Obama.
If Obama can create growth with this congress, he is the man.
Now Mitt had a great debate, but debates don't create growth.

Presidential candidate Mitt Romney did not have anything good to say about Friday’s jobs report showing unemployment down to 7.8 percent.

I clicked on your source to get the proof and guess what? Nothing.
Just sour grapes from the Right Wing. The American public should be disgusted by them. Instead of cheering for improvement in the economy, they are wishing it was worse.
How low can they go?

Truly shocking in the report was that the number of unemployed people dropped by 456,000 to 12.1 million.
Maybe more shocking, total employment, as measured by the Household Survey, rose by 873,000 in September to 142,974,000. That's the highest it's been since December 2008 before Obama was inaugurated.
So the Household Survey showed a gain of 873,000 people employed in September - resulting in the surprise drop in the unemployment rate - while the Establishment Survey only showed a rise of 114,000.
Hmmm.

So Obama magically made 351,000 working Americans simply disappear from the jobs roll. Where did these 351,000 people go?

No they went into previously existing jobs, jobs that were vacated by layoffs etc.. I'm not even suggesting that the numbers are 100% accurate but there's some serious disconnect from logic going with reaction to the claim.
