Something like the U6 counts *underemployment*, which matters more if you're specifically trying to argue that employment is a meaningless statistic. However, I'm not entirely sure whether something like the U6 would be able to track people who were switched from unemployment/welfare to disability under Bill Clinton (which was how he "solved" unemployment) Archgoat posted...
