    All of this has been refuted...why do you continue with this misinformation? You really need to let go over Barney Frank's memo

    That leaves about 94.6 million Americans not in the labor force. But a lot of them are not working for understandable reasons.

    44.1 million are retired.
    15.3 million are disabled.
    14.7 million are in college or job training.
    12.9 million are taking care of a family member.

    So, of the 94.6 million Americans not working, 86.8 million are retired, disabled, taking care of a loved one, or in school.

    Maybe democrats conspired with China to unleash a new virus to thwart this amazing Trump economy. Just kidding but I wouldn't put it past them.

    Democrats intentionally lose wars for politics. They open the borders for politics.

    So no I wouldn't put it past them.

    Probably self inflicted stupidity or simply unemployable due to mental/physical reasons. It’s usually how it is. Some hard cases from companies closing down, but hard workers find work.

    School and retirement are great. Lots of folks can afford to do that now in the booming economy.

    trump had a Republican congress as well yet the unemployment rate largely followed the trend set during the Obama administration — as did the overall growth rate... Republicans (the politicians — not our dear wonderful informed Republican members — so you can’t get my post deleted) must be the most incompetent group of people on the face of the earth — they are literally responsible for nothing, ever.

    Trump has had full employment thanks to the Republican Congress since he took office yet is still creating jobs at a phenomenal rate and has the LFPR trickling back up which NEVER happened after the Democrats crashed employment and created the worst unemployment situation in modern history. Do show me how Democrats were more competent? The Republicans handed them a 4.5% unemployment rate and a measly $161B deficit and an economy in growth in 2007. How'd they do the next 4 years?

    Some people chose not to work and don’t rely on government. My wife doesn’t work and stays at home with kids. I earn enough to afford this.
    There are also lots of people who live by gigs and small scale entrepreneurship. My wife has friends who do skin care and hair cutting from home.

    Republicans handed them a full blown recession.
    They are working on creating the next one.
