According to a new study by the Pew Research Center, 52% of American adults under 30 live with their parents, and the number of households headed by 18 to 29-year-olds declined by 1.9 million (12%). At the same time, the August 2020 jobs report shows that workforce participation rose to 61.7% from 61.4% while unemployment declined from 10.2% to 8.4%. It's worth noting, perhaps, that 29 million Americans are receiving some form of unemployment compensation although the $600 extra per week expired at the end of July. Happy Labor Day!
Alex Kudera’s award-winning novel, Fight for Your Long Day (Atticus Books), was drafted in a walk-in closet during a summer in Seoul, South Korea. Auggie’s Revenge (Beating Windward Press) is his second novel. His numerous short stories include “Frade Killed Ellen” (Dutch Kills Press), “Bombing from Above” (Heavy Feather Review), and “A Thanksgiving” (Eclectica Magazine).
