>There are millions of Americans who have given up looking for jobs, because they are unable to find a job that pays enough for them to stop caring for their children/relatives/take time off schooling/pay for costs of working.

>They are not represented in unemployment numbers ...

Depends on the set of numbers you're looking at. DoL produces different numbers that encompass different assumptions. Normally these people are not considered unemployed, so putting them to work wouldn't change the unemployment statistics.

And I don't believe having 30% of the population carrying the other 70% is at all an economic success. That's an unstable situation that can't continue.
