if you want to compare apples to apples we can discuss discouraged worker's and include them in whatever stats you want.

do you think unemployment (10% or 17%, your choice) would be higher, the same, or lower, had there not been massive government intervention in 2008/2009?
Maybe, but I guess where I am is that the assumption that we have stopped getting worse in terms of employment is an assumption I'm not willing to make....I sure hope so. I see a lot of people really hurting but the state issues are just beginning, not ending.
