Being a high school, college or graduate student, a senior citizen, a stay-at-home parent, a job-training participant, or having a disability is no excuse for not holding down a job, or for working less than 40 hours in a week.

Now get out there and WORK.

1. high school students arent generally counted as part of the work force
2. how are college students able to survive without working where in the past they often worked their way through college?
3. senior citizens are more than ever choosing to REMAIN in the Labor Market; meaning you have to ADD THOSE BACK INTO the calculations. thanks for nothing idiot
4. how are stay-at home parents able to stay at home now when that was a disappearing trend dummy??
5. have we never had jo training participants?
6. RECORD numbers are collecting a federal disability NOT RELATED to military service. why is that??

Indeed. Part-time and underemployment are both at an all-time high. Also the numbers on EBT, SSI, Social Security, Medicare, Disability, Medicaid, free school lunch programs, and other entitlement programs are at an all-time high. It's all Bush and Cheney's fault. LOL!!

I fully agreed that the economy is roaring and it's the vast majority of the citizens in the country struggling to pay bills or find work that is not low paying service work whom are stupid ignorant conspiracy haters.

I'd say we have completely surpassed that quality economic security feeling any other generation had felt. These are great times, just look at the stock market... Because the stock market hit 1800 points you know the middle class and poor are getting real time rich. So if they claim otherwise we all know it's bullshit, they just wana hate the black man.

We have more workers in the system as we have a higher population with a larger number of retirees.

Some of you, particularly on the far right, don't do well with numbers.

yes loon; we've always had those numbers. but as i explained to another idiot the number of ABLE-BODIED and WORKING-AGE Americans not participating in the Labor Market is higher than it has been in the past.

no amount of crybaby whinning by left-wing losers is going to change the facts

As the economy slowly recovers from the Great Recession, many of those men and women are eager to find work and willing to make large sacrifices to do so. Many others, however, are choosing not to work, according to a New York Times/CBS News/Kaiser Family Foundation poll that provides a detailed look at the lives of the 30 million Americans 25 to 54 who are without jobs.

Many men, in particular, have decided that low-wage work will not improve their lives, in part because deep changes in American society have made it easier for them to live without working. These changes include the availability of federal disability benefits; the decline of marriage, which means fewer men provide for children; and the rise of the Internet, which has reduced the isolation of unemployment.

Dear Donald Trump: China, Japan and Mexico are not ‘killing us’

Last quarter, the U.S. economy grew at a 3.7 percent clip. Annual growth now is almost twice that of Europe and four times that of Japan. Unemployment is at 5.1 percent, the lowest in seven years. The deficit as a percentage of gross domestic product (2.8 percent in 2014) is at its lowest since 2007.

“The U.S. has come out of the 2008 crisis better than all the others,” says Ruchir Sharma, head of global macro investing at Morgan Stanley. “Americans have reduced their debt burden more than the Europeans, while China’s debt has skyrocketed to extremely dangerous levels. If you look outside of China, U.S. growth is actually faster even than the emerging markets. Since the 2008 crisis, U.S. equity markets have outperformed all others — in fact 9 out of the 10 most valuable companies in the world are now American. The dollar is the currency of choice. Global growth is not what it used to be, but in a bad neighborhood, the U.S. has the best house by far.” Sharma points out that for the past four years, the United States’ share of global GDP has increased while Europe’s and Japan’s have moved down.




The Wall Street Journal notes that in the past five years, JPMorgan Chase, Bank of America, Citigroup, Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley have increased in value by $254.6 billion. In the same period, their European competitors, Barclays, Credit Suisse, Deutsche Bank, UBS and Royal Bank of Scotland added just $9.5 billion. In July, Barclays Chairman John McFarlane was asked by the Wall Street Journal if America’s banks were eating European lenders’ lunch. He replied: “They are doing a good job of it.” He added that the U.S. banks “are the only ones that really claim to be global and successful.”

To compare the United States’ performance and leadership to Mexico’s, Japan’s and China’s is particularly ill-timed. Trump might be stuck in a 1980s time warp on Japan. When his “The Art of the Deal” was published in 1987, Americans were envious of Japan’s brilliant leaders, who were said to be outsmarting the United States at every turn. Since then, Japan has become the poster child for economic stagnation and political paralysis. Prime Minister Shinzo Abe has been unwilling or unable to get his promised reforms enacted, and the country’s economy continues to shrink.

Mexico is watching its growth collapse. While its president, Enrique Peña Nieto, is a courageous and intelligent leader who has made some very bold decisions, he has also made some significant missteps. Most important, the country was ill-prepared for plunging oil prices that have battered government revenues and growth.

China has had three decades of supercharged growth and competent government policy. But in the past few years, Beijing went on a borrowing binge, running up its total debt to levels that are unprecedented, according to Sharma. And in the past two months it has made mistakes in managing both its equity markets and currency — mistakes that have cost $400 billion, theFinancial Times reports.

i guess that appears to makes sense in your world nutjob; except that in the modern world, including in America, many of the "American corporation" ARE MULTINATIONALS THEMSELVES who have operations in china. so when you try to contrast the emerging markets with what America has done you ARE TALKING ABOUT companies WITH OPERATIONS IN CHINA AND THEY ARE THE SUBSIDIARIES that are making money. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
