U.S. adds 243,000 jobs in January

Jobless rate falls to 8.3%; Companies in the U.S. hired many workers in the past nine months which made the unemployment rate drop to 8.3%, which is the lowest it has been for the past three years. Many people believe that the weather might have helped to create more jobs in construction. The unemployment rate dropping has also helped President Obama's probability of reelection improve from 2.2% to 56.8%. As more people keep their jobs or more being hired, it will help the economy improve and bring it back to pre recession levels.
