Gov’t Admits Millions of Unemployed People Were Not Counted in Latest Job Stats
When the June jobs report came out, President Joe Biden crowed that it was “Bidenomics in action.”
But behind the happy talk of the White House statement, buried in the depths of a report from the Bureau of Labor Statistics, is the revelation that more than five million Americans who are not working were not counted in the unemployment rate, which stands at 3.6 percent.
Every American willing to work hard should be able to get a job no matter where they live – in the heartland, in small towns, in big cities – to raise their kids on a good paycheck and keep their roots where they grew up.
That’s the American dream.
