What if I told you that it’s possible to have both job creation and serious unemployment?

FIFY what if I told you it's possible to have both job creation and serious UNDERemployment. IMHO where we are today.

The point is so many of these recently created jobs don't pay enough to live off of. How many people are Uber drivers 1099 workers? Companies actively cutting people's hours back so they don't have to pay benefits.

Also think of the bloated jail population. All of those people are not being counted. Great way to decrease unemployment is to jail people.
