[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There may be 9% unemployment in this country but that means 91% are working![/quote] No, it means that 9% (9.1%) of the people surveyed by the BLS reported that they had not worked in the past four weeks, were available for work, and had performed certain specific job-seeking activities. Unpaid family work, say in a family business, makes a person count as "employed", as does part-time work, underemployment, and so on. The official unemployment rate is the tip of the iceberg, and I can only hope we're not on the Titanic. [/quote]
