Can someone explain to me, how this 9.1% unemployment rate can remain steady, when we have to create a certain level of jobs to stay even, and we’re not hitting that level month after month after month after month...
They only count those who are signing up for unemployment for the first time. Farm workers, self employed, college graduates, those already unemployed, and those who ran out of unemployment insurance aren't counted.
In other words, things are a LOT worse than 9.1%. (9.1% only represents the new ones.)
