For several million "unemployment benefits" have run out.
Do the math.. it's much, much higher than the manipulated numbers report.
No Longer? Many of them were never in. Of the 94,228,000 not in the labor force (meaning not working or trying to work) 88,525,000 do not want a job now. We’re talking retirees, disabled, stay-home spouses, students. Here’s the breakdown: http://www.bls.gov/web/empsit/cpseea38.htm
Unemployment benefits are not used to calculate the unemployemt rate. If you’re trying to get a job, you’re unemployed.
