    With fewer than 2 million people and plenty of jobs to go around, Nebraska had the country’s lowest-ever state unemployment rate of 1.8% in November. Some people haven't reentered the job market. Gov. Pete Ricketts is trying to bring them back.http://apne.ws/hNtA9HI

        Many older people retired early if they had the means. They’re not going back- they don’t need to. So this all can’t be pinned just on younger people “unwilling to work.”

        The analysis I saw said there have been about 1.5 million early retirements during the pandemic. Plus the ~200k working age adults who are dead of COVID.
