Abstract:
The unemployment rate has fallen to dramatically low levels, and some economists believe that low labor force participation levels make this a misleading indicator of the economy's health, but jobs are available for virtually every worker who wants them. Rather than wondering what has gone wrong, policymakers should look for ways to keep the economy strong and growing.
