So thats 157 Million?, out of what of a population in America, 327.2 million (2018)
The gap is the number unemployed, which peaked at 15.4 million in October 2009 and fell to 7.4 million by November 2016.
As many as 22 million U.S. workers can be considered “underemployed” — that is, they have a job that doesn't put their education, experience or training to work, or they are working part-time when they'd rather have a full-time job, according to a new report from PayScale.
According to the US Department of Housing and Urban Development's Annual Homeless Assessment Report, as of 2018 there were around 553,000 homeless people in the United States on a given night, or 0.17% of the population.
How many Americans are homeless in 2018?

Clearly the post states this is based on the BLS report. Unemployment is defined by the Bureau of Labor Statistics as people who do not have a job, have actively looked for work in the past four weeks, and are currently available for work. Also, people who were temporarily laid off and were waiting to be called back to that job are included in the unemployment statistics. Employment is anyone 16 or older who worked 15 hours during the past week. Anyone under 16 is not included in the labor force, even if they are working. The BLS also includes people who didn't work during the week if they were temporarily absent due to vacation, illness, or other reason.
Anything outside of these parameters is off topic and does not apply to this post.
