Unemployment stands at the highest it has been in 25 years and the forecast for the future looks even grimmer.  The unemployment rate in the U.S. now stands officially at 8.1 percent.  However, the government does not factor disgruntled/discouraged workers into its unemployment figures.  It only includes those actively looking for new employment.  If it were to include the number of people who have simply stopped trying, as well as the number of people who work part-time but are well below their previous employment standards, American unemployment figures would be a depression-like 15 percent or more.

  • @digitalflava what did you say?

    Tiny

  • Man, this is one of the few videos that I have faithfully watched from beginning to end and had me wanting to see and know more. Great Job.

  • Hey, I've got a great idea to fix the unemployment in America. Let's deport the 29 million illegal freakin mexicans that are working American jobs. If Americans don't want these jobs, then take away their welfare and food stamps and let them starve. What's so hard about that??? Enforce the freakin immigration laws and you fix the problem !!!!

  • Great Video!! Peter Morici For President 2012.

    USA is not doing nothing, they are only entertaining its citizens with the actor called savior Obama. he is just another puppet put there by the elite. The 1% of the citizens that run the country.

  • don't forget independent contractors, small business owners, kids out of high school and college, and those that cannot qualify for unemployment insurance...try 20-25%. All government intervention is useless and you know it. We are already beyond repair (were 30 years ago. wishful thinking though.
