The data is one month behind. And the gap has never been this wide in the past.

Unemployment should be at 4.5 percent now! The author is just saying the economy is opening up. That’s obvious. And obviously the unemployment rate will fall at the end of the year after the enhanced unemployment ends. You seem to be ignoring the two FRED charts that show open jobs and...

the economy is reopening. Businesses need people. Job openings are very high. Unemployment is very high. Why aren’t all those jobs being filled by all those unemployed people? Initial jobless claims are low means few workers are being laid off right now. An employee can’t quit and get the...

Look at the 10 year trend and compare it to the unemployment rate, you will see how these jobs should be gobbled up and aren’t. initial jobless claims will be down because companies are net wanting to hire and can’t. an employee who quits doesn’t get unemployment. So you don’t let them go and...

Here's an anecdotal store from a guy named FRED: https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/UNEMPLOY Unemployment rate (which will be dominated by all those people laid off because of COVID vs the fewer jobs for them to take) is at the same level it was in 2014. Why wasn't Obama offering $600/week to...

Go nuts because you have presented so much quantitative evidence so far.
