1976 Economic Shifts and Policy Debate Amid Unemployment Readings
The data show unemployment mainly declined among adult men who left the labor force, with jobless rates dropping from 6.5 to 6.2 percent. In 1976 the yearly unemployment average was 7.7 percent, down from 3.0 percent in 1975, while wholesale prices rose 4.7 percent year over year. Domestic price trends included a 2.7 percent rise in farm and food wholesale costs, and coffee prices jumped 11.4 percent from the previous year. A one time federal rebate helped ease some energy price pressures, and discussions surfaced about FBI leadership as Kelley nears retirement amid broader justice department turnover.
