18% sounds closer to it.
I was thinking it was in the 20’s.
How many fakers are collecting disability when they could work?How many couch-sitters out there sponging off friends and relatives?Gaming the system has been elevated to an art form.

I would guess its in the 20’s too. I don’t think 18 % is high enough. It really depends on how you define “employed” and the feds knows this. Control the language; control the narrative.
It does sound right, and everybody knows it. The government claims 5%, using various statistical tricks. But no one can possibly believe that out of an average 100 working-age people, only 5 cannot find good employment.
And this is why Trump is surging. What he says makes sense to almost every American. No wishy-washy crap from him.
I think they should report welfare and disability percentages. How many able bodied, working age people who should be the bread winner are not working and not even looking?
