Stay in School

For John, BLUF:  More education, less unemployment.  Nothing to see here; just move along.

Unemployment rate 3.7 percent for college grads, 6.7 percent for high school grads in March 2021

Bureau of Labor Statistics, U.S. Department of Labor, The Economics Daily, Unemployment rate 3.7 percent for college grads, 6.7 percent for high school grads in March 2021 at BLM.

Here is the lede plus one:

The unemployment rate edged down to 6.0 percent in March 2021.  The rate is down considerably from its recent high in April 2020 but is 2.5 percentage points higher than before the pandemic in February 2020.  For those with a bachelor’s degree and higher, the unemployment rate was 3.7 percent in March, down from a high of 8.4 percent in April 2020.

Finishing High School makes a big difference, as does finishing a college degree.
