Yeah I didn't mean to shit on Biden or anything; just seems like we're not quantifying this in a very meaningful way.
It'd be like celebrating that food insecurity is at an all time low! woohoo!! ......because access to affordable food is now so bad that 75% of the people dealing with food insecurity have starved to death since it was last measured.
(numbers pulled from ass for demonstration sake)
Yeah, for sure. My point is just that any under-count has probably been relatively consistent for at least 20 years, so the number is most likely reliably wrong if it's wrong. If the numbers say unemployment is down under Biden, it probably is down under Biden, even if it's not as low as the report says.
