"Do the French leave out (from their statistics) those who stopped looking for a job after 4 weeks or 8 weeks or whatever?"

Who the hell knows? All I know is that I wish I could stop looking for work. If you don't need to do it, life ain't that bad. If you do need to do it, you should be able to join the 94.4% of us that do work.

"Those who say this country's unemployment rate is 5.5% or thereabouts are employed in the statistics fabrication industry"

It's all a ruse, right? We are all unemployed most likley, and those of us who work are probably just dreaming.
