Basics On How Many Americans Are Unemployed

By Amy Peterson


Donald Trump was recently sworn in as the 45th president of the United States. The thing that has been top of his agenda even during the campaign period is giving people jobs. The rate of people without jobs has grown slightly higher according to the department of numbers but the question remains how many Americans are unemployed and what are some of the reasons.

There are more things to be tackled to make sure that this issue fades away slowly. There are fewer adults in the job market and a huge number is retiring to go take care of families. The young generation of people who are supposed to be working and contributing to the growth of economy are opting to go study instead of looking for a job.

Most youths who have gone for further studies are doing so due to fear of remaining without jobs. The number of dropouts also keep on raising each year because a lot of people are not satisfied with the kind of jobs that they are doing. Sometimes these dropouts too are not counted among the people without jobs therefore making it hard for the exact number to be collected.

Another category that is sometimes ignored or never counted is for the missing workers. These are people who have gotten job opportunities that are not good enough for them. When people feel like the opportunity they have is weaker than their qualification they choose not to work. They should also be counted to get the total number of people without jobs.

Missing workers being the largest pool means that they could either pull the economy up or down depending on how the job opportunities are presented to them. To get the specific number or percentage they should be categorized in terms of gender and age to make the exercise simpler. These are the people who weaken the economy for choosing not to work.

There is a rate of people who have a part time job and could be termed as jobless too. If anything can happen they would remain without a source of income just like everyone else. If asked they would love to get a full job but for some reasons like the few openings they are not in a position to get a slot. Personal business are pushed out of the market due to high taxes.

A lot of people who have been looking for jobs for a long time and have not been in a position to get jobs. This means that middle class families are not moving ahead instead they are just passing each day at a time. Department of numbers does not count people who have chosen to leave their job because they want to take care of their families as jobless not unless they had tried searching before.

Giving the exact number of people without jobs could be difficult because it cuts across all ages. However figuring out the issues leading to the rise is better as it will help job provides and the government look at this issue at a different perspective. This in return weakens the economy of the country making it not perform well economically.
