The job's picture _1_ to be much better than it was a month ago, even though, the unemployment rate has dropped to 8.1%.NPR's Steve Martin reports the decline _2_ to more people giving up their job search.

就业率和一个月前相比没有好多少，甚至下跌8.1%。NPR的史蒂夫·马丁报道说就业率下降的原因是更多的人放弃找工作。

When those without a job stop looking for work, they _3_ in the unemployment numbers. The Labor Department says more of them did that in August, _4_ the nation's jobless rate from 8.3%. Employers added 96,000 jobs and the economists including DanHerzang a micro advisors say that is far fewer than what's needed. It feels like things were turning around the big way, we have to sitch up growth and hire 100 or close to 200. Job gains sustained and that paste was certainly put the unemployment rate on the downward _5_.

当那些失业的人停止找工作，他们将不被计入失业人数。美国劳工部说八月份更多的人这么做了，使得国家的失业率从8.3%往下降。尽管雇主增加了96000份工作，但经济学家们，包括经济顾问丹·赫芝认为现有的远少于需要的。由此看上去经济会有大的转变，我们不得不保证持续提供工作机会，雇佣100到200个人。就业持续增长，这种状态会使失业率处于下降趋势。

经济学家认为在下周的会议上美联储很有可能会引导更健康的经济。史蒂夫·马丁，NPR新闻，华盛顿。

国会议员保罗·赖安称另一个美联储货币刺激不是一个好政策。共和党副总统候选人在CNBC（美国全国广播公司财经频道）上称这一政策的花销将大于所获和保底金额，因此说它不是明智的财政政策。失业问题在今天的总统竞选活动中是一个棘手问题。
