The opinions expressed by columnists are their own and do not necessarily represent the views of Townhall.com.

While it's true that the unemployment rate is falling, that doesn't include the millions of nonworking adults who aren't even looking for a job anymore. And hiring isn't strong enough to keep up with population growth.
