The editorial's reasoning is most vulnerable to criticism on the grounds that it
presumes, without providing justification, that the government is at least partly responsible for the improvement in the employment situation
relies on data from a period that is too short to justify an inference about a general trend
fails to take into account the possibility that many unemployed workers who still desire jobs may have stopped looking for jobs
fails to take into account that the sorts of governmental efforts that reduce unemployment may not be effective in creating more high-paying jobs
ignores other economic indicators, which may not have improved during the past two years
