So much for that much anticipated rebound in the participation rate.
After it had managed to post a modest increase in the early part of the year, hitting the highest level in one year in March at 63%, the disenchantment with working has returned, and the labor force participation rate had flatlined for the next few month, ultimately dropping in November to 62.7%, just shy of its 35 year low of 62.4% hit last October. This can be seen in the surge of Americans who are no longer in the labor force, who spiked by 446,000 in November, hitting an all time high of 95.1 million.
As a result of this the US labor force shrank by 226,000 to 159,486K, down from 159,712K a month ago, and helped the unemployment rate tumble to 4.6%, the lowest level since August 2007.
Adding the number of unemployed workers to the people not in the labor force, there are now over 102.5 million Americans who are either unemployment or no longer looking for work.
By looking for work they mean on unemployment. Their accounts ran dry as aliens of all sorts have taken every new job created in the USA by numbers since 2000. Arrest the traitors in government and make them work in one of their FEMA camps for a change.
Make their kids go to school with illegal barbarians and ghetto bastards. See how long it takes for things to change.
AGREED!!!!!!!!!!
