    Here is the unemployment rate for January:

    Rate: 4.8%
    12 MMA: 4.84%
    Crossover: rate still below 12 MMA

    With the promise of jobs from this administration, watch this number rise. More Unemployed, a.k.a. gave up looking, may be coming back into the count. I think you will see skewed numbers for a bit. (Not a political post)

    Will the number of employed (paid) protestors offset the number of unemployed protestors in unemployment reports?
    Are there more shepherds than sheep?
    It appears "protestor" is fast becoming a job title. Will the Trump administration be credited with creating those jobs?
    it looks like a solid 4-8 year full-time occupation.
    I wonder if they can apply for unemployment when the gig is up?

    The High Cost of a Home Is Turning American Millennials Into the New Serfs - The Daily Beast

    Article is as much about lower/stagnant wages and less than full time employment opportunities as it is higher housing costs.
