The participation rate will logically lag behind unemployment given the horrific numbers we have seen for a decade. As more jobs become available with higher wages it will begin moving in a positive direction.

The economic performance of this administration has been nothing short of AMAZING.

Continued improvement in the economy and continued/acceleration of deporting of illegals wii result in more “discouraged” workers coming back into the labor force.

Labor participation is very poor. When you look at people 40 years old and above, it’s horrific.
