Monthly Comprehensive Reporting of Citizens Financial Status
(by Don Baham on May 12, 2015)
The federal government’s monthly reporting of national employment numbers is inadequate to provide a comprehensive picture of citizen’s financial health.
To remedy this, we need the federal government to pass and enforce a law that provides the following information to the citizenry on a monthly basis:
a. The combined monthly income of both the employed and unemployed for the last three months.
b. An authoritatively-compiled estimate of a livable monthly income.
c. The monthly income of the employed alone for the last three months.
d. The non-employment monthly income of the unemployed alone for the last three months.
e. The length of time that the unemployed have been unemployed by age group.
f. The length of time that the unemployed have been unemployed by race.
