Full time employment is still abnormally low in the eighth year of painfully slow recovery

On an average basis through October 2019, just 50.37% of civilian noninstitutional population works full time.

A simple return to the rate of 51.3% which still prevailed throughout 2008, before the black communist got elected and scared employers half to death, would mean almost 3 million more working full time at current population level than do.

It took Reagan only three years to dig out of similar depths to which we sank in 2009, 2010 and 2011, but here we are in the eighth year of recovery and can't crack 50.5%.

Pathetic.
