What’s scary is that unemployment statistics don’t count people who have given up looking for work, or those entering the job market such as teenagers or spouses who previously depended on a working spouse for income.

Well, some of my family moved to Oregon to get work, how do you count them?
I think that the only honest way to calculate jobs is to count the ones that have them. I guess that’s just too dismal…

Ok, my third comment…..
Whatever information comes to the public, has first been manipulated. we all know that, of course. it would very easy to know how many people are really out of work, or on the street. but that wouldn’t serve the cause of the “Domestic Enemies” so it is minimized, and minimized.

Sorry to be the word police, but one in ten of you IS employed. Technically, subject(one) and verb(is, not are) must agree in number(singular). Oh yeah, and like anon says above, the 10 percent would be much higher if they counted “discouraged” workers.

And how many have just run out of unemployment benefits? I bet that Humboldt is nearing 15% this month!
