Actually, the Labor Force Participation Rate collapsed for the entirety of the Obama disaster and stopped falling immediately upon Trump’s inauguration.

You can see it for yourself here:

What are you doing? Work your fingers to the bone so we can take it all to give to invaders and the wife you’ve been oppressing with your male privilege peon.

Many of them probably are active in some sort of money-making activity. Just because they don’t report anything to the government doesn’t mean they aren’t out doing some sort of work.

If healthy men are unemployed in this economy, it’s because they don’t want to be. Everybody is advertising job openings.

Has the increase in female participation rate surpassed the decrease in male rate?

The article linked is dated October 18, 2016.

Nicholas Eberstadt published a book “Men Without Work” in September 2016. It was dealing with statistics from the Obama era. I would hope things have improved in the Trump era.

sooner or later the lack of qualified labor will force the labor marker to bring back older, experienced workers ... at least those who still need to and/or want to work ... i myself am quite content to live off of my accumulated wealth and work when and for whom i want to work for ...

Does this count the many drawing pay to protest against the President?

How many were thrown out of work during the Obama economy?

It doesn’t shock me that many guys who were unemployed and who had no prospect of becoming employed again thanks to the worse economy since the 1930s turned to opiods and any other escape they could think of.
