Note that the data includes all citizens age 16 and older. To find the right number for unemployment, we must remove students, retirees, handicapped, etc. from this pool. Any policies to do with unemployment directly on this data is meaningless and misleading. If you wanted to significantly reduce the 37.3% you would have to put all retirees and students to work. Between 37.3% and 42% proposed by Trump is 18 Million people! That's almost twice the population of NYC.
