It's time to cut the entitlements and cut the excuses and get people up off of their couches and working.

ARe there details about what kinds of jobs? Isn't the biggest issue that most of the jobs lately have been low paying?

The issue has been that most jobs created have been part time.

Only way to change the Participation rate, unfortunately.

I linked the article, mofo. But here. It also notes that wage gains were stagnant.

The January results were helped by hiring in construction, retail, finance and professional services. The 36,000 increase in construction payrolls was the largest since March.

Private employment, which excludes government agencies, rose by 237,000 in January after a 165,000 increase the prior month. Government employment fell by 10,000, with state and local agencies subtracting 14,000 and federal payrolls adding 4,000. Factory payrolls rose by 5,000, after an 11,000 increase in the previous month. Compared with manufacturers, service providers including restaurants, business services and health-care are typically less exposed to headwinds such as the stronger dollar and the health of overseas economies. Retailers increased payrolls by 45,900. Employment in financial activities was up 32,000, professional and business services rose by 39,000, and leisure and hospitality was up 34,000.

Thanks, sumbitch. I appreciate the extra work you did for me. I'm trying to work and post worthless posts at the same time. It's challenging.
