In March, the civilian labor force participation rate held at 64.2 percent, and the employment-population ratio, at 58.5 percent, changed little.

If anyone thinks that things are getting better, they should see these figures in context.

You and I and all FReepers know that the only figure the MSM will report is the 8.8% and dropping figure. They will not report the underlying figures. If the Bozo admin had said the figure was 6% they would have just reported it with glee and said no more. Not even one scintilla of skepticism from the media. Not even an eyebrow raised or a cough of slight surprise, just a smirk of condescension and a wink of “I got your back, Zero”..............
