5% unemployment = full employment. Very damn good.

We should insist on reporting EMPLOYMENT numbers as:

95% OF THE PEOPLE WHO CAN WORK ARE WORKING!

It's considered full employment.

I distinctly remember the NY Times trumpetting the unemployment rate of 5.4% when Clinton was president as if he had turned lead into gold. Something tells me they won't be quite as kind to President Bush

Not just your opinion but fact! The average Unemployment figure over the last 40 years is 5.7%.

5% is damn good!
