What's the labor force participation rate looking like? It still stinks but it is slightly better than it was under Obama.
My exact thought. This is never really discussed. Of course the unemployment rate, regardless of race is down when the LFPR is near historic lows. And of course the LFPR is near historic lows when we bend over backwards and make it easy and comfortable to not be in the labor force. I'd imagine minorities have lower participation rates though. It would be interesting to chart the minority LFPR, white LFPR, and total LFPR since maybe the beginning of the Clinton presidency to today.
