Not in the labor force

Persons who are neither employed nor unemployed are not in the labor force. This category includes retired persons, students, those taking care of children or other family members, and others who are neither working nor seeking work. Information is collected on their desire for and availability for work, job search activity in the prior year, and reasons for not currently searching. See also Labor force and
================================================================


this is from THE GOVERNMENT'S BUREAU OF LABOR STATISTICS:

it says retired people are not counted in the labor force. but AGAIN RETIRED PEOPLE ARE STAYING IN THE LABOR MARKET LONGER; NOT LESS
so left-wing losers need to find another excuse for the low labor market participation rate

Yeah, up from 15.5% staying in the labor force to 18%. That means that 82% of Boomers are retiring by age 65!!!!!

Americans Working Part-Time After Age 65 - US News

Americans Working Part-Time After Age 65
Don’t count on full-time retirement, even after age 65. About 15.5 percent of Americans age 65 and older were still working in 2008, according to recently released data from the Census Bureau’s American Community Survey. Most of those seniors (62 percent) have cut back to part-time work. But over a third (38 percent) continue to work 35 hours a week or more during the traditional retirement years.

In 1985, 10.8% of people over 65 worked full-time or part-time. By 2011, that figure rose to over 18%, according to the AARP Public Policy Institute.

Economy adds 288,000 jobs; jobless rate, 6.3%

Employers added 288,000 jobs in April as milder weather continued to lift the labor market from a winter slump.

The unemployment rate fell to 6.3% from 6.7% -- the biggest drop since September 2008, the Labor Department said Friday.

Many economists expect the economy and job market to accelerate this year because of higher household wealth and reduced debt, as well as more modest federal government spending cuts

there are fewer Americans with jobs in obama's sixth year than at the height of the "Bush" recession


true story

libs are losers who lie to themselves

At the height of the Bush Depression there were 138,013,000 employed and today there are 145,669,000

No one is unhappy, it's more that you're happy that you can finally show a number worth a shit... But it didn't stop you before from claiming 100k jobs was FANTASTIC!!!

Now, trillions in stimulus later (non stop stimulus). Almost 6 years later and lie after lie after lie Obama finally gets a somewhat kinda sorta reasonable job number.

 

[edthecynic]

How many of the 288,000 were part time?

Part-time for economic reasons DECLINED in April from 7,455,000 to 7,243,000 and part-time for non-economic reasons DECLINED in April from 19,732,000 to 19,707,000

Excellent news for Americans, bad news for the far right, which is good news for Americans

How predictable...progressives rejoicing in positive job number developments...conservatives disappointed in same.
If concerned about ur kids and America's future...which party would YOU vote for?

How predictable; left-wing losers rejoicing in phony numbers that tell half a story at best; and are almost ALWAYS REVISED DOWNWARD. look it up if you dont believe me; this is the trend under obama.

a 40-YEAR LOW in participation in the labor market is the number that matters; and it is nothing to rejoice about


libs are losers who lie to themselves

The LPR is the most meaningless labor stat because it is affected by demographics like Boomers retiring, but since it is the ONLY stat the Right has, in desperation they elevate it to the highest level Of course, the LPR was declining throughout the Bush Regime, and Bush didn't have Boomers retiring, but there was not a peep from the Right about how terrible the Bush economy was with Bush's LPR declining!

82% of Boomers retiring from the workforce is hardly a canard. As a result of the Boomers retiring the LPR is even more meaningless now then when it was declining under Bush without the Boomers retiring, and the Right thought it was so meaningless under Bush that they never even brought it up once!!
