The people you mention are those age 16 and older who are not in the military or prison, or in an institution. So yes it includes students and disabled not living in an institution.The number I mention was people of working age not students or handie cap.Where do I say anything about retirement age? But that's 23.6 million non-disabled age 65+
Then there are 23.1 million disabled (all ages). 14.3 million students age 16-24.
6 million of those not in the labor force say they want to work, but half haven't done anything to get a job in over a year.
Are you suggesting that these people are freeloaders? living on government welfare?

"of working age"did you not comprehend that? Don't bother using the link for the cooked numbers.
