What is your perspective on the current unemployment rate in the United States?

It's only 4% that's nothing. Same for UK which is why I don't understand retoric about pushing people to work and saying benefits should be tighter. It's 4% who cares that's an average stable low as a society.

Over here they are whining about too many being unemployed and in health situations like myself but in reality it's nothing when you look at the actual percentage.

[Kaneki05]

Oh yeah and it's even lower that number, because this includes those who are actively stable with money so not looking for jobs.
So this 4% don't mean all people on unemployment benefits.

There still seems to be long wait times in restaurants and phone calls. “The due to a higher than normal call volume kind!”
Plenty of help wanted signs in windows. Seems like there should be plenty of vacancies if people wanted to work!
I am almost 70 years old. I still turn down job offers!

Thank you Scarlett for the MHO!

My guess is that the US unemployment rate is about to get a lot higher with our Genius In Chief personally handling the economy. And by "handling" I mean fucking it up beyond all recognition at a furious pace.

It is holding steady at 4%. The recent jobs report showed better than expected new job creation , mostly in the healthcare and transportation sectors. Also, investment in equipment had jumped 22%. Businesses are showing optimism for the future.

I called Vocational Rehab, cause I'm having a hard time getting new job. They told me that it's hard to get a job even for those who don't have a disability.

[BonzoInBitburg]

The unemployment rate is low but new job postings are falling and are also low.

[Ironco]

It's not as bad as the last 4 years... Don't believe the propaganda from the left... I know, here comes the hate

[Staximus]

I don't know. I have two jobs and don't have time to think about it

[beefcakebradybatson]

The gig "economy" skews the unemployment numbers.

[Agape93]

It's funny, and it's about to get worse
