anecdotal data that I see says no way the rate should be going down. The job market is dead and unemployment claims haven't gone away.

In other words, what good is this published unemployment rate?

<<the desire for work>>

Measuring it would make the employment stats accurate?

I wasn't aware that merely having a desire to work produced income.
