I put the statistics because the talking heads report around 3.6 million unemployed when actual the number is almost 7 times more.

If the total workforce is about 150 million then 14.5 million people willing to work but with no jobs bring the unemployment to around 10% and not the 6.2% reported ....... big difference.

Germany who is supposedly in recession has similar % in unemployed workers
