Your conclusion seems to be that as long as there are some jobs being created all is well since every other jobs classification measurement is holding steady ... they ain't, my brother.
I've said nothing of the sort.
Nope ... the definition tells the story.
Your conclusion is simplistic ... faulty.
Tells what story? Because your original premise is dead in the water. The U4 rate is always higher than the U3, by definition. The number of Discouraged workers has not increased, while employment has. These facts do much to explain why you've glaringly failed to provide any documentation for any of your claims in the way of supporting data.
Did you know that currently the Government considers you to be in the U3 group only if you've been looking for work in the last 4 weeks?
That should help disguise how crappy the unemployment really is and enable Administration supporters to keep the scam going.
The bolding of the term currently is rather unnecessary. This is the definition that has been used for many administrations prior.
