Back then, according to BLS, 145,534,000 Americans held jobs. This November, according to BLS, only 144,386,000 Americans hold jobs. That is a drop of 1,148,000 in the number of Americans working.
This decline in the number of Americans who actually have jobs has come even though the size of the nation’s civilian non-institutional population and the size of the nation’s civilian labor force have both grown significantly over the last seven years.
