January private sector jobs increased by 257,000? How did this happen while the civilian labor force participation rate fell to a 30 YEAR LOW?

When more than 1.9 million first-time unemployment claims were filed in January?

How did employers hire a quarter of a million people without adding one minute to average hours worked?

A record 1.2 million dropped out of the labor force. Spin that.

Most any government employee that can retire and lock in a defined benefit pension is. Florida is filling up with early retired city/state/fed employees from the Upper Midwest and NE. These are people in their late 40’s to mid 50’s and they will be retired for 30 years. They will bankrupt us.
