We all know who to thank for the bulk of that trend

About time they get off their lazy asses and do some actual WORK. Fancy that! Real, honest, WORK! OMG!

All this is great and wonderful but we all know the FED and government have "tweaked" the formulas over the decades...what is real unemployment and underemployment? Does anyone else follow original stats on this such as the ShadowStats economists.

Would be interesting to see a shadowstats version of the workforce participation chart above, factoring in real & structural unemployment, underemployed part-time, and working age population not counted.

I am sure you did not intend to use the word twist. Undoubtedly, you meant to say the Bible can be interpreted to support any position you desire.

Is it cause of Trum politics lately or something else LOL ? ) Personally it may give many opportunities if you know how to use that info with some markets. Think about family goods or something else concerning about currency. Just use your brains

Yes, this whole post reminds me of when Jacob worked for seven years to earn Rachel's hand in marriage. [Genesis, 29]

He was probably about 25 at the end of his indenture; there's probably an economic cycle here if you look close enough.
