From the whitepaper:

"Furthermore, LISEP calculates the “True Rate of UnemploymentOut ofPopulation”, using the same statistical definition of True Rate of Employment, but instead taking this number from the entire working-age population (aged 16+) rather than the BLS-defined labor force."

So am I right that this includes retirees, college students, kids still in high school, stay-at-home parents, etc? Doesn't seem super useful.
