How about you add the under employment rate as anyone working one hour a week is considered employed.
Add all the very low paid workers into the mix in all those burger flipping type jobs.

Employment figures like most government figures are simply manipulated by not including the above.
Then there is the participation rate.
How about falling wages in real terms just like it is in Australia.
48 million on food stamps and the nutrition program.
Then there is the homeless problem in states like California.
The bankrupt cities like Detroit and numerous others.
Company tax cuts have never lead to higher wages just the same in Australia.
Now you have the problem of probably the biggest importer of oil China ceasing to import oil from the US.

Lets not talk about the Government debt, if the country was doing so well why the enormous debt.
I include Australia in all the above.
