The Real Numbers: DECEMBER, 2024
Author's Comments: The point of these employment numbers is the P. P. C. is MULTIPLES of present GDP, I. E. tremendous slack in the economy. ‘Exploding’ the economy with my reforms is possible with the potential for 101.6% increase in full time workers and I don’t know how to calculate whether the G. D. P. could ‘explode’ by quintupling or more to about $105 Trillion from present $21 Trillion.
The
official number reported by listed sources are (www.bls.gov):
0.256 Million
more
jobs, both part time and full time.
My number is -0.162 Million (both FT and PT) and labeled is known as
Not Seasonally Adjusted
Also note decrease of 0.239 million (-0.239) full time jobs (Jobs Lost)
These are my private recalculations of employment numbers that changes the appearance of the official numbers.

Can this be my postmortem legacy for the future as I solved poverty and established the concepts of Star Trek Economics? (Right click only.)

179.711 million not working.
135.873 million able and not working full time.
101.6% potential increase of full time workers.

6.0% of ‘Idle’, are the only ones looking for work (1 of 16.8).
16.207 million 'Underutilized' versus 'Official' at 6.452 million and 9.755 million more.
Official number: 4.1%.
9.7% is the 'Real, Underutilized rate' and is 5.8% points higher than official and is 251.2% of official.
WHEN
WILL THESE NUMBERS BE SATISFACTORY?
When
about 65% or
more of 'Able' work full
time.
When
about 10% of

My point: The U. S. Economy will dither for the coming years... and keep lumbering with onerous growth.
I suggest inflation is from destruction of Aggregate Supply from firms stopping operations. I. e. sudden increase in demand and decrease in aggregate supply.
A Conventional Solution:
Econoclasts: The Rebels Who Sparked the Supply-Side Revolution and Restored American Prosperity
With my reform, I envision a >50% increase in the workforce and much, much more for underdeveloped countries with e. g. 5% FTW. The economic system would require nearly all people to work and, expecting it to work as envisioned, there’d be massive labor shortages. In the system, it is THEFT to take any products without working for it. But when one works, he or she is entitled to the benefits of the economy. There would be every incentive to work and every disincentive not to work.
A real great bonus to the system is that there are no taxes; the government won’t have its hands in citizens’ pockets. The government will have priority to acquire products and merely takes products only out of the market.
If you see a metric that seems indicative, please Contact Me.
