You can try to make this out as a bad thing, but it seems to me the unemployment rate is a somewhat accurate gauge of our true unemployment figures. Six years ago when our unemployment was at it's high, a large percentage of my local friends were out of work and looking for jobs. Oddly enough, now that the unemployment rate is down none of my friends are looking for jobs.

Richard, Wrong as usual
Don?t blame waves of retirement for that fact: the Census Bureau reported that, from 2005 to 2010, older Americans actually became more likely to be employed. The percentage of 65-69 year-olds remaining in the workforce jumped from 26 percent to 32 percent over a ten-year-period ending in 2012. Among those 70-74 the jump was even more startling: from 14 percent to 19.5 percent. Meanwhile workers in the prime of their lives have simply left the playing field.
And Richard, the world doesn't revolve around your group of friends!

Carbon is not the problem, it makes up 0.041% of our atmosphere , 95% of that is from Volcanos and decomposing plants and stuff. So people in the US are responsible for 13% of the carbon in the atmosphere which 95% is not from Humans, like cars and trucks and stuff and they want to spend trillions to fix it while Solar Panel plants are powered by coal plants
think about that
