Georgia’s unemployment rate reaches record low of 3.3%

Although the U-3 unemployment numbers look great; one must also look at the U-6 - total unemployed, plus all marginally attached workers, plus total employed part time for economic reasons, as a percent of the civilian labor force plus all marginally attached workers. The U-6 number released for October for the state is 7.1% compared to 7.3% for the nation. We still have a lot of people working part-time seeking full-time thanks to Obamacare.
