  • If you have a PhD in physics and you bag groceries, you are unemployed. It is that simple.

  • I didn't know what unemployment really is until I learned Macroeconomics..

  • U-3 unemployment reports the winner of this parody, expressed as an ~8.5% unemployment rate. The real report encompassing all the other contestants to this parody reflects ~17% unemployment rate for the U.S. Just so you know, California is at Great Depression level unemployment. Here is the takeaway be calm, don't panic, it will all be okay, be calm, don't panic, it will all be okay........ pacifier......bottle......paci­fier......pacifier......

  • People need to understand this. Between this and the Federal Reserve system, our economy *IS NOT* getting better! You put this together with a police state and the US global empire and the whole system is a mess. We need to try a free market for once. Ron Paul 2012!

  • If you do not look for work for 4 weeks you will be dropped from the numbers. If you work 1 hour a week you are considered employed.

  • Guy #3 is underemployed

  • I enjoyed the video! I don't mean to spam your comments, but I wrote "Unemployment Doesn't have to Suck!" on Amazon. If anyone wants some useful information on how to save money and gain other resources, I tried my best to list them all in a short guide after finding myself unemployed for a short time.

  • Ron Paul 2012 is the only one who can save us !
