Says it all.  From http://townhall.com/political-cartoons/lisabenson/2013/07/10/110634.  All jobs are not created equal.  The BLS household survey only asks whether someone is employed or not.  Someone who has two jobs is only counted as employed once.  And people who have a part-time job but would like full-time work are also counted as employed.  The BLS says the latter group is “underemployed.”
