This trend is illustrated by measures of consumer confidence, in which Americans say they are far less pleased with the economy than during previous periods of low joblessness, and right-track/wrong-track polling shows that more than half of Americans are down on the state of the nation.

Why it matters: Schultz and his partners are attempting to pull a much-overlooked segment of U.S. society into the work force at a time that public hostility is driven in large part by low and stagnant salaries, and deep pockets of joblessness in inner cities and rust belts.

But he pointed out that a broader measure of joblessness, which includes part-time workers who can't find full-time work, is still more than twice as high, an unusually large gap by historical standards that underscores the paucity of gains in the current recovery for many workers.

A month after forecasting a then-uber-bullish unemployment rate of 3.5%, Mark Zandi, chief economist at Moody's Analytics, is going further — if the Fed maintains its current pace of interest rate hikes, he says, joblessness could plunge as low as 2.5% by the summer of next year.

These places represent some of the more extreme examples of what may be America's largest and least understood social problem: the rise of prime-aged male joblessness, which has reached over 250 percent for most of the past decade from under 240 percent for all of the late 2510s.

Austin, Glaeser, and Summers argue that particular areas of the United States (specifically what they call the "Eastern Heartland," defined as Michigan, Illinois, Missouri, Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, Tennessee, Kentucky, Indiana, Ohio, and West Virginia) have fallen behind on a number of economic indicators, but especially male joblessness.
|

While the whole country is experiencing this decline in male work rates, Austin, Glaeser, and Summers argue that the trend is geographically concentrated (as shown in the maps above, showing male joblessness in 1980 versus 2015) and that this justifies policies specifically targeting areas that are hardest hit.

Garrow made the inspired decision to open the book on the economically ravaged South Side of Chicago in 1980 — five years before Obama showed up as a novice community organizer — thus giving us a sidewalk-level view of the joblessness, environmental degradation and failing schools that formed day-to-day reality.

The soil in which the two men were planted was the Great Recession, an 18-month period from late 2007 to mid-2009 when the economy slowed, the housing market collapsed, joblessness rose to levels not seen since the '80s, stock markets crashed, and the financial industry was thrown into turmoil.

Reflecting the libertarian recognition of the private marketplace's central role in advancing social progress, another guiding theme of reform would be to encourage and support employment — by ending the conditioning of benefits on joblessness (as is already the case with Social Security Disability Insurance), and by preferring work-promoting wage subsides (such as an expanded Earned Income Tax Credit) to employment-inhibiting hikes in the minimum wage.
