Unemployment numbers are faked.

We have a population of about 315,000,000

Statics say that we have 204 million employable

We have 92 million who have left the workforce.

204-92 =112 million people working

112,000,000/204,000,000 = 54.9% unemployment rate.

Or it could be just like they say 6.7%

We have 92 million who have left the workforce.

I don't agree with that number. Many of those who are neither employed nor looking for work were never in the workforce. They may be career welfare, full-time parents, disabled, or for a number of other reasons outside the job market. A more relevant number is the "civilian labor force participation rate", which shows a 3.2% decrease since the communist took power, or a little less than 8 million people who dropped out of the workforce - in large part because of Obama's incompetence.
