Jobless Rate Hits 53-Year Low, unemployment rate fell to 3.4%

Do they count gig workers into this #?

Example

If i sign up to door dash, uber drive and grubhub , does that count as 3 new jobs ? Even though im 1 person

Or is it based off unique persons? Example above counting as 1 total job since signed up with same social security #? Although 3 different companies

The average American's economic reality has long been decoupled from all of these statistics.

no matter whose in office they inflate/deflate the stats to look good
