Only 47% of Working Age Americans have Full Time Jobs

If you count the "part time employed for non-economic reasons", you get 126.8 million Americans who are unemployed, underemployed, working part time or "Not in the labor force".

That represents 53% of working age Americans.  So only 47% of working age Americans have full time jobs. While the official unemployment rate is 9.4%. Something's missing somewhere.
