I think a more accurate number is the labor participation rate, i.e. the percentage of able bodied people who have a job. I believe the percentage today is something like 66%, but historically has been above 70%.
However, the US economy today is certainly stronger than it has been dating back to September of 2008.
That being said, the videogame industry, and the economy in general will have greater earnings this year than any year in the last 6 years. Hell, just look at the consumer reception to Destiny....
The sales of that new IP alone confirm the US economy is on solid ground and should only strengthen in the years to come.
