>We have close to 30% unemployment in the United States.

The unemployment was recalculated under the Obama administration so that it was made to look good. Same thing happened in the Clinton administration.

There are large swaths of the country that haven't grown economically since the Reagan administration. Many places are contracting.

Wow, you're so knowledgeable and above the rest, anonymous 4chan user l4slkJm! This is why I like, comment, and subscribe to all of your posts!

Go ahead and demonstrate the "correct" calculation then. We'll wait. Should be interesting to see what you come up with.

Fucking alternative facts. This entire post is complete bullshit. Obama was great for the economy. Clinton balanced the deficit. Bush crashed everything with deregulation. End of story.

The problem is that unemployment has turned into a frankennumber. I don't understand why we don't just track the employment number instead.

The gov't knows who's drawing a salary because they pay taxes. Much easier to do and more accurate.

The issue I think is that it would be quite high because it would count the elderly, kids, the disabled, etc. as "unemployed".

So, the actual raw number wouldn't be so much of an interest as *changes* to that number.
