Although this recovery is sluggish by historical standards, I somewhat question that stat.

Is that number Americans in general or the number of those of working age?

Working age. Although you got me wondering. Does that include people of retirement age too?

It says those 16 years or older. I do not know if that includes those on SS, or retired otherwise.
