Why people insist on deflecting from the actual thread topic shows a lack of focus.

Having said that, here is the reality.
Labor force is at it's lowest in 38 years counting people of age to be in the labor force.

The govt.'s own statistics (they changed the way they do the unemployment rate a few years ago to stop counting people who give up on finding jobs):

Bureau of Labor Statistics Data



The govt. is cooking the books on the unemployment rate by changing how they count it.
If they were counting it the way they always did from the beginning...the rate is double or more what they are claiming. There are over 93 MILLION people unemployed. That's not a good thing.

But again, this isn't a thread about the unemployment rate. It's about media bias.
