It’s nearly 63%; right around what it’s been most of the last decade.
It was nearly 63.5 under trump and biden has it a nearly 62.5 now. That is a huge amount of people.

One in graphic design. Another in finance. Two others that are consultants. My wife's company, a fortune top 25 is in a hiring freeze.

Wait, I’m starting to get the impression that people here don’t like the low unemployment rate because they don’t like Biden.
How is unemployment rate calculated?

Do people here not like Biden or something? I didn’t realize this statistic was being politicized.
You mean you didn’t realize Democrats kept their States locked down long after they should have been opened, leading to high unemployment rates that the Democrats then used as a political issue during the presidential election?
Or do you mean you didn’t realize Democrats opened up their states after the election and used the fact people were going back to the jobs Democrat locked them out of so they could claim they were creating jobs?

Now do labor force participation rates. Many left the job market after CoVid and are no longer part of the unemployment data. Before CoVid the LFP was 63.4%, after CoVid 60.2%.
I hate to tell you this, but your factual presentation will do nothing to dissuade this leftist loon. He see’s it as only being a few percentage points off and has absolutely no understanding as to what it represents.

There you have it. He knows several people who can't find a job.

It represents a number of people. Pretty straightforward
Do you know how many people that percent-change represents?

It's at 62.4% now and the trump term average was around 62.8%. A few percentage points

Of course they realize it. They championed all of it and wanted it to happen.

They realize this too, but they are programmed to lie, then mock anyone who dares point it out. It is how they operate.

Then why was your response that it was only a little bit off when presented with the original graph?

There are certain posters that don’t deserve to be engaged with because they’re not operating in good faith to begin with. Better to tell them to frick off and move on.
That’s you.
That’s you.

You’ll notice I’m not going to address your OP because it’s a bullshite premise and you know it. Hopefully I can distract you for a few pages until this thread gets an anchor.

So you’re not addressing the OP by letting me know you disagree with the premise of the OP?
Got it
