Obviously, people are avoiding entering the labor force or dropping out of the labor force right now because jobs are scarce. People who don’t think they’ll find a job either don’t look or give up looking.

Some retire, some go back to school, some become housewives, some are living with relatives. You don’t need much to get by if your needs are simple.
