Oh, wow, just noticed that labor force participation is actually up. How long has it been since that happened?


Baby boomers retiring and Gen Y not jumping in at the rate 18-29's used to is depressing the rate.

1.) The unemployment rate increased sharply for those without a high school diploma (from 12.5 percent to 13 percent).

2.) While it decreased for those with a BA (from 4 percent to 3.9 percent).

3.) It also increased for those with a high school diploma but not college (7.9 percent to 8.1 percent).

4.) It also increased for those with some college (7.6 percent to 7.9 percent).

Basically people who went to college saw their rates decline very slightly. It increased notably for the others.
