- sologoub 15y agoIf you deliberately take yourself out of the labor force, you are not unemployed according to the rules used to gather official statistics ;)
- steve-howard 15y agoTrue that. If we pretend they're not talking about frictional (between jobs) or structural (tech makes people redundant) unemployment, they seem to be claiming that they can eliminate the kind of cyclical unemployment that happens when the world economy goes down the drain. I'd be fascinated if the Power of Social Marketing can fix that.
