Original Note:
The 1960s BLS used a broader definition of unemployment that included those who were discouraged from seeking employment and who worked part-time. To compare the current unemployment rates to those prior to 1994, use the U6 which is currently at 6.6% - a 32 year low. https://www.bls.gov/cps/cps_htgm.htm#employed https://www.bls.gov/news.release/empsit.t15.htm
