Did you look at the charts? I thought they were pretty self-explanatory. Check the second chart. The number of natives not working between the ages of 25 to 54 has increased from 18.1 million to 23.4 million.
We really have a serious structural employment problem that casts a giant cloud over our future. We are destroying the middle class and creating a permanent underclass. This does not bode well for our future as more and more people become dependent upon the welfare state. Workers are becoming disposable commodities mainly due to the fact that we have a massive surplus of labor. Yet we continue to import 1.1 million permanent immigrants a year along with 640,000 guest workers annually. Wages are stagnating or declining and the native born are being pushed out of the labor market. Over 25 million foreign born are in the workforce.
