The fact that US laobr force participation rate has dropped to the lowest level in 50 years - which most seem to attribute to “people giving up on getting another job” - may also help explain why so many people feel bad about the economy.

Is it age adjusted? LFPR has been dropping for well over a decade despite it rising within age cohorts for some time because people are getting older. Prime age (25-54) doesn't look that down.

Nah, they are using this one which is not age adjusted or prime age (25-54)
