Those damn retired people....
I don't see where the retired are identified as these people being described. How is it you make that leap?

How many retired people you know with jobs?
No...but read my first reply again. If there are higher percentages of populations on food stamps in red states, then that obviously means that it's more likely that red states may well have generally higher percentages of families that don't work.
me and wife are retired and have no jobs..... but we work harder today than ever.How many retired people you know with jobs?

And yet....it is the blue states that always prop up the red states who are the ones who take more from the federal government than they pay in. Imagine that!
oh jeez, not that old meme again.
it's hilarious that lefties are incapable of understanding why it's a dumb meme.
They don't work.

they are not delineated, but are included.
me and the wife are part of that 1 in 5 number.... we are officially unemployed.
No dumber than the 93 mil number of unemployed the righties throw out there every month.
Well, that's kinda my point. Retirees aren't specifically included in the statistics.

Odd. I've never seen that.
May 1st is a Sunday. So the monthly Unemployment Report will be released on May 2nd. Check in on any threads about the report on the 2nd, it'll be there. It is every month.

nah, it's far far dumber...for a number of reasons.
Then it should be easy for you to cite an example.
Unemployment Rates for States
seems as the states with the highest unemployment rates are both red and blue....6 of the bottom 10 are blue states.( and once again,I need to voice my opposition to the idiotic red/blue state bull**** that so many dullards subscribe to)
how can that possibly be Glen?...you are here telling us it's a red state thing, but the facts don't line up with your ultra-partisan narrative.
May 2nd isn't here yet, I will, on May 2nd.
I'm not JUST talking about dumb. I'm talking about being purposely disingenuous. Implying every one of the 93 mil number are unemployed and 'looking for a job' is disingenuous.
Because of the Boomers that number's been rising for awhile, and it ill keep rising for 10+ years. Short of killing all the Boomers, there's nothing that can be done to stop that number from rising.
And NO, I'm not in favor of killing all the Boomers. I am 1.
I think I've taking this thread far enough off-course.

you're talking about the labor participation rate..correct?
so it's your argument that boomers retiring is the only cause for that numbers being at or near historic lows?
