GZ, what you FIRST said (that "there are less people employed today than in 1970") was flat-out WRONG.

You failed to consider the huge increase in America's population since 1970.

However, (in your LATER reply), you *switched* to talking about the RATE of employment, which you correctly point out has been dropping for decades.

Are you aware that you switched what you were talking about, i.e. you are trying to fool folks), or was it just a mistake, an oversight GZ?????????????

Like I pointed out all along, there is a somewhat lower work force participation level today than prevailed in 1970 but because the population has increased vastly since then there are FAR MORE people working in America today then there were in 1970.)
