As I have already shown, LFPR is the highest since 2007.You dumb Moon Bat.
Lies by the Potatohead administration, just like we saw when Obama was president.
Here is the real story:
More Than 105 Million Working Age Americans Do Not Have A Job Right Now
Our long slide toward economic oblivion continues, and survey after survey has shown that most Americans are deeply unsatisfied withtruthbasedmedia.com
More Than 105 Million Working Age Americans Do Not Have A Job Right Now
Our long slide toward economic oblivion continues, and survey after survey has shown that most Americans are deeply unsatisfied with the current state of the U.S. economy. Inflation is out of control, most Americans are getting poorer due to the rapidly rising cost of living, the housing bubble has started to burst, and the commercial real estate market is a giant mess. But employment is supposed to be our bright spot.
The Biden administration continues to tell us that the unemployment rate is less than 4 percent and that there are lot of jobs available for those that want them. But is this really true?
To answer that question, it is imperative to understand that our government places unemployed persons into one of two categories…
Jobless people are classified into one of two categories by the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS)—either unemployed or not in the labor force. To be classified as unemployed in the month they are surveyed, people must be actively looking for work. If they are not actively looking, they are classified as not in the labor force.
Over time, the definition of “officially unemployed” has gotten more restrictive, and today only 6.097 million working age Americans are considered to be in that category. Meanwhile, a staggering 99.800 million working age Americans are considered to be “not in the labor force”.
When you add both categories together, you get a total of 105.897 million working age Americans that do not have a job right now.
Let me try to put that into perspective. During the Great Recession of 2008 and 2009, that number never even got up to 90 million. So that means that the number of working age Americans that are not employed at this moment far surpasses anything that we witnessed during the Great Recession.
Please do not believe the garbage that the federal government is trying to sell you. Unemployment is not low. In fact, John Williams estimates that the real rate of unemployment in this country is somewhere around 25 percent.
Try again, loser.

Nope. It's the lowest it has been in at least 50 years.

It was right there in my OP, dipshit:
Labor force participation rate for people ages 25 to 54 in May 2023 highest since January 2007

Notice your trick, you dishonest sap
"for people ages 25 to 54"
I go to FRED and get LFPR. No funny business that is hard to check.
The civilian labor force participation rate is the number of employed and unemployed but looking for a job as a percentage of the population aged 16 years and over.

Don't try to Trump my data. Your source says its source is the BLS, which is where my data came from and I posted the link. My data was accurate within the hour that I posted it.Nope. It's the lowest it has been in at least 50 years.

Your post, which shows unemployment rate, has the same conclusion anyway...
My post is correct, and the data is provided.
Your statement that unemployment is the lowest in 50 years, based on your own data, is wrong.
Both the Black unemployment rate (your data) and the total Black unemployment (my data), show Biden latest numbers do not yet achieved Trump's levels pre-pandemic, don't you agree?

At the time the pandemic hit, black unemployment was 6.3 percent.
Here is black unemployment for April 2023:
4.7 percent. That's the lowest in at least the past 50 years.
You chose the best number from the Trump years, and I chose the best number from the Biden regime.

Bidenomics: 90% of Jobs Created Were Lost in the Pandemic
Joe Biden, the 81 million vote man, is running on his economic record, which is abysmal. Democrats don't seem worried about him losing, which is baffling since Bidenomics are a disaster. Steve Bannon spoke with E. J. Antoni of Heritage, who clarified how bad Bidenomics is. This Congress continu
