Every American should get on the BLS web site and see how this group measures unemployment as well as the other stats they put out. It’s a joke! And very misleading and thus highly inaccurate! Studying payroll numbers is probably a lot better measure of reality.
I would not doubt that real unemployment is closer to 10%.
Then go look up unemployment in the last couple of recessions…1980 to 1985, 1990 to 1995.
