So, what the libs say in response to the evidence of lowest job participation rate is that there are much higher numbers of elderly,

and are you heartless enough to insist they go back to work in order to increase the participation rate?

It’s BS of course. Parallel evidence would be in the enrollment numbers in “disability”. People aren’t suddenly becoming disabled - they just can’t find jobs in the Obamaconomy.

The higher elderly population excuse is such obvious manure. And by the left's own words.

Isn't the leftist narrative constantly that society is becoming more "liberal" because young people are displacing the older, conservative people? Now, they want to conveniently contradict that narrative, hoping we don't notice, by saying that there are more and MORE elderly non-workers? As if elderly people product their own kind. They can't logically have it both ways.

The enduring fact over the past 6 or 7 years is that college graduate unemployment is THROUGH THE ROOF. They just aren't looking.

ADP numbers are always too high, and they say 180,000. These numbers are good for the roses.
