- johnnyanmac 3y agoCare to elaborate on this line of thinking? What jobs and where?
- HarryHirsch 3y agoDude is saying that someone who is works for 1h in a week is not included in the U-3 statistics. The wife is reviewing job applications for a teaching position at her institution. There are people applying who did decent work in the past and are now writing assignments for study.com. That's some serious underemployment visible there.

- HarryHirsch 3y agoIt's lack of industrial policy, really, the fact that these people did good science until outsourcing started proves it. It's not cases of "got useless PhD at university no one ever heard of".
- kemotep 3y agoThese people are counted in the U6 figures. U3 is only people without a job who have been looking in the past 12 months and haven’t found a job.
- laidoffamazon 3y agoUnderemployment historically low right now, your anecdotes are meaningless against the real data.
