I am sorry, but what does it explain? We have unemployment statistics for the past 3 months. We know what they are - they are up because of the recession. It also shows that there are long-term unemployed (a small percentage) and there are people working part time.
I am at the loss what point you are trying to make.
I’m not trying to convince you of anything. I think you should make your bets according to your own best judgment.
