“A record 20 million Americans collected unemployment benefits last year,”

Wasn’t unemployment peaked out at 10.8% in the 1980’s?

This alone reveals that the 9.whatever percent UE rate we have is bogus if 20 million is a record.

It looks like the states have borrowed about 38.5B dollars to date to help keep their unemployment insurance programs going.
