The monthly jobs report is out. The headline numbers tend to bounce around a lot, so today on the show, we take the long view. We look at three groups that got hammered especially hard during the recession and ask: How are they doing now?
Those groups are:
People who are working part time but want to be working full time:
/ U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics
African-American workers:
/ U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics
High-school graduates who did not go to college:
/ U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics
