@rbreich there are 2 different numbers, Robert, and as the ex labor secretary you know this better than most of us.
UNDER-EMPLOYMENT, Rob, vs UNEMPLOYMENT. Unemployment is calculated based on CLAIMS FILED that quarter. When they stop coming, unemployment is down, right? Wrong.
UNDER-EMPLOYMENT - people who cant find work, have given up, are outside the workforce is higher than ever! Nearly 1m people living in tents, and rising daily!
