#missingworkers

I believe that this statement, although asserting a claim based on contradiction (a person who isn’t working, but is documented as working??), encourages an examination of the reasons for a major decline in jobs-seekers throughout the United States.  I’m also encouraged to ask questions such as:

- What is the national unemployment rate?

- What are the most consistent reasons for national unemployment?

- What is the demographic profile of people who are claiming or considered to be unemployed?

- In which occupations do citizens tend to be employed? How much money can people in these occupations expect to earn?

In a complex economy, conventional measures sometimes fall short.
