    Sep 2019 (Trumps Best Month)
    US Population: 328 million
    Labor Participation Rate: 63.1
    UnEmployment Rate: 3.5%
    Total Labor Force: 207 million
    Unemployed: 7.2 million

    Dec 2023 (Last Month)
    Us Population: 340 Million
    Labor Participation Rate: 62.5
    Unemployment rate: 3.7
    Total Labor Force: 212 million
    Unemployed: 7.8 million

    Ok boys.....tell me which number I need to adjust to make your math work. How in God's name did you get 7% or 10%? Arbitrarily?

    Please tell me you guys arent the dipshits those 3 Oregon fans are.

    Refresh my memory…if the current unemployment rate isn’t 3.5 as reported by the BLS….whats the exact number?

    Following what been disclosed in this thread, probably 3.5 + 7.

    What’s that, 10.5%?

    No its just the 7%. But it's way higher when you include the illegals.
    That would be extremely hard to nail down in all honesty, I would guess that aside from "sanctuary cities" the illegal immigration participation numbers would be higher per capita but would be lots of grey and black market employees.

    Then again, most of them use fake broken ladder identities of the deceased to work so maybe they are counted. Who fucking knows.

    It would be a fun regression worthy of doing my PhD in.

    All that being said, Joe Biden's economy sucks ass. It's why even the Whitehouse gave up messaging on it. If it were doing well we wouldn't hear the end of it from the msm.

    Lol you are this fucking dense. Go reread the thread however many times you need to and maybe put the Adderall down, or snort another line. Whichever.

    Your clue should have been when Margaret @HHusky gave the talking point up and conceded.

    I'm responding to Bob and just musing about the effect of illegals on employment numbers. Hth.

    None of it has to do with the 5.7 million long term unemployed in Biden's roaring economy.

    When illegal immigration is flat and low, I agree it's probably not super material. But when it spikes like it has, short term it has to be going up. It's also quite inflationary to have people sucking up services, spending money and producing nothing.

    Same link I've posted at least 3 times. BLS.

    I'll clean it up when I'm not on mobile and make a nice chart maybe. I'm happy to compare apples to apples.

    It's been fun but I killed my morning. Need to get real work done now.
