1 - No we aren't. Not with the labor force participation ration where it is.
What labor force participation rate would you expect??? Go back about 50 years....women didn't work then, they stayed at home as moms and home makers.... So decide what participation you think ideal and pick your unemployment number...remember it's Republican business men who need women's labor.

The baby boomers and fulltime students are why participation increased....do you really know of ANYBODY? who had given up looking for a job??? If you do you run with a low class crowd.....and participation percent is in the 60s where it's been for decades.....the recovery from great depression two was a lot quicker and better than the first eh??? And like I said...we were lucky to even have a recovery from that republican fiasco....and your deficit is the direct result of two wars and the economic disaster left by BUSH that cost us trillions....not from food stamps like the simple minded tea baggers think...lol!!! no charge for this education!!!! :-)

heres ur participation rate nonsense...well within 20 year ranges even with the boomers hitting retirement lmao!!!
