Original Note:
The 14M incorrectly includes furloughed employees who simply returned to work post COVID. While a furloughed employee is considered unemployed per BLS, the job itself is not eliminated. If a job is not eliminated, it cannot be created. https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/furlough https://www.cbsnews.com/news/furlough-versus-layoff-unemployment-aid-coronavirus/
