"I think it has a lot to do with how they measure "people who have left the workforce". How do you get raw data on that anyway?"

Require employers to report the SSN's of all released, current and applying workers. Then, you have actual data and software could determine the actual unemployment rate. You'd have an ever growing pool of people who had at some point just quit trying. Subtract those retired on SS.
