    Number of comments: 2
    This video explains why the real unemployment rate, including “marginally attached” labor, is at 17.2%, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Thanks to d3ft punk.

  • Wow – Back to 10%?

    Number of comments: 5
    As noted yesterday, the pundits were predicting that November’s unemployment rate would be unchanged from last month’s, and that only 100,000 jobs would be lost in November. But the numbers released today show a much rosier scenario: the unemployment rate has dropped to 10%, and non-farm employment barely changed. Here’s [...]
