The Unemployment Rate Bullshit
Unemployment numbers only count those on UNEMPLOYMENT. Most people have drained their unemployment eligibility. They all fell off the unemployment rolls. Hence the drop in unemployment. I guarantee you there are more people unemployed than there were last year.

hesright

Most states only allow 26 weeks of unemployment, and yes, only those collecting it are counted in the statistic. Unemployed and not collecting, or already got your maximum benefit? You aren't counted in the statistic. Working 2 jobs? Not counted. Underemployed? Not counted. Disabled and trying to get disability? Not counted. The numbers really don't give an accurate picture.
