The Labor Force Participation Rate

While the Unemployment Rate is down to 8.5%, the Labor
Force Participation Rate also fell. What
is going on here?

If a 67% Labor Force Participation Rate is more
realistic than the current 63.96% Labor Force Participation Rate, then the ‘Unemployed’
are understated by 7,304,000 people, so rather than 13,097,000 unemployed the
adjusted number would be 20,401,000!
