i mean, elaine is right about the participation rate. but for this particular month, jared, i wouldn't even look at the household numbers. the payroll numbers advance really tells the story. how about that? i'm defending your position. >> you're both right. and the key number you said there, larry, was over 700,000. i don't think anyone and i include secretary chao here believes the labor force dropped by over 700,000 last month. that's anomalous. i looked at the nonseasonally adjusted data. i think four times has the labor force fallen in october in the nsa data going all the way back to 1960. that was very anomalous. should be discounted the way you said. but secretary chao is right. it has been a declining trend and that is a source of concern. >> i think the labor participation rate, regardless when you're talking about 72.8% 63.4%, this is very low. basically the years 2001 to 2009, the labor participation rate was about 67%. over a workforce of about 150 million people, those four percentage points mean a great deal. >> for people

joining us to talk about it, former chief economist jared bernstein and elaine chow. this is a pretty good report, didn't you think? >> i think we're always glad when there's positive job growth and creation numbers. what is really distressing is that, number one, the unemployment rate ticked upward from 7.2% to 7.3%. and the labor participation rate dropped .4%. this means that conditions are still softer than what we would like and that a lot of workers are still very discouraged and they've left the workforce. >> but, you know, let me make one point. i know a lot of republicans are making the point you made, the participation rate. you are factually absolutely right. let me go to jared on this. jared, i'm going to defend the numbers because the participation rate comes out of the household survey. and the household survey counted
