The only nerve you struck is the one where people don't like hypocrisy. Again, I remember in 2016 Trump repeatedly talking about the "real unemployment rate" and that it was near 20%. Oddly, after Trump was in office that talk disappeared completely and Trump openly bragged about the low unemployment rate, that was not much lower than Obama's rates -- and never brought up that the "true unemployment rate" would still have been near 20% (if that statistic was actually true).
The same was repeated here by Trump supporters, claims in 2016 about the "real unemployment rate" and in 2017 of how low unemployment was -- ignoring the claims that something like 15% were unemployed but not included in the official statistics. Now, suddenly a Democrat is in office again, with low unemployment rates, and we hear yelling about the "real unemployment rate." You seem to have admitted that you are using this as a political talking point, and not out of any real concern that the unemployment rate is actually higher than claimed.
It is also interesting that you never provided any support for asking the question, even as you've been challenged for asking it. Instead, you have tried to make it about you, not anyone else -- my original comment was a general one about Trump supporters and you have pushed me to try and apply it to you in your subsequent responses.
The fact is, what we are hearing tends to support that the official unemployment rate is actually relatively close to the "real" unemployment rate. What we know is that not only is the unemployment rate low but we have business owners who are talking about having to lower the job qualifications in order to find people to hire. From what I've seen, the US is near "full employment" (as economists calculate it), just like the official numbers would indicate.
