: 62.8%: Labor Force Participation Near 37-Year-Low for 11 Months

Lorrie GoldsteinVerified account ‏@sunlorrie

The labor force participation rate hovered between 62.9 percent and 62.7 percent in the eleven months from April 2014 through February, and has been 62.9 percent or lower in 13 of the 17 months since October 2013.

Prior to that, the last time the rate was below 63 percent was 37 years ago, in March 1978 when it was 62.8 percent, the same rate it was in February.

So it's all inflation producing the illusion of recovery. I'm not really surprised.
As long as we have the petro dollar it's going to slowly slip downwards.

Losing the petro dollar would send us crashing

Unemployment in my County of residence is still above 10% and the sagging Real Estate market is still depressed. Our purchasing power is diminishing monthly and all I can say is the situation isn't improving much for me yet.
