  • Example: "As of 2010 in the United States, 123 million women age 16 years and over have worked in the U.S., 72 million, or 58.6 percent, were working or looking for work." That means over 41% were in effect unemployed, either unable or unwilling but over time more are unable as there are no jobs. That's the REAL unemployment rate. Don't let 'news' papers lie to you or shame/stigmatise those not working.          ☞
