Responses:

LOTS of talk about the reasons behind on CNBC this morning: whether it's lack of opportunity or it's people reluctant to return to the workforce - Baron Nefcy May 7, 07:22 4
- There is lots of reporting going on out there about people avoiding the workforce because of the high unemployment payments. I tend to be skeptical - pmb May 7, 08:06 3
  - There's definitely some that are not going to take some low paying job just to go back to work when UI is giving them more. My friend is one. - Krusty May 7, 08:24
  - Also under appreciated is the impact of the unavailability of regular child care and access to schools. -- nm - znufrii May 7, 08:21 1
    - That is a huge complicating factor for sure. If your kids have nowhere to go during the day, you can't just leave them. -- nm - Baron Nefcy May 7, 08:34
