Almost one in five young adults in the U.S. was neither working nor studying in the first quarter as Black and Hispanic youth remain idle at disproportionate rates.今年第1季美國幾乎每5名年輕成年人中，就有1人沒在工作也沒在就學，非裔與西裔年輕人賦閒率更是不成比例。
In the first three months of the year, about 3.8 million Americans age 20 to 24 were not in employment, education or training, known as the NEET rate, the Center for Economic Policy and Research said in a report. That’s up by 740,000, or 24%, from a year earlier.
「經濟政策與研究中心」在一份報告中說，今年前3個月，約380萬名20歲到24歲的人處於非就業、就學或接受培訓，即所謂「尼特」率，比一年前多出74萬人，或者24％。
Inactive youth is a worrying sign for the future of the economy. Further, high NEET rates may foster environments that are fertile for social unrest.
年輕人閒閒沒事做，是經濟前景一個令人擔心的徵兆。而且，高「啃老」率或許助長醞釀社會不安的環境。
