Approx figures in millions -
US population 300
Employed 145
Working age not
employed 90
Other 65
Sum of Employed and Working age not employed 235
Percent of Employed to Sum above 62% (labor participation rate)
Observations -
Your friends fall into the "Other" category above (children, retired, etc) and are not considered unemployed, unless they are actually seeking employment.
If the 90M figure is a hoax, so is the labor participation rate. Is it a hoax too?
