New York Times announced today that the unemployment rate is 8.1 %
That doesn't include the people that have been unemployment long enough to run out of benefits, or the people who took part-time work while they continue to look for full-time work. I have seen speculations that the actual unemployment rate is between 9 and 10 %.
I can't even comprehend these numbers. I just can't.
