Slicing unemployme​nt.................from Rico

OK, with the 'offishul' unemployment numbers cooked/jiggered by the government, what is happening is hard enough for many to understand. Many likely 'think' of unemployment as a monolithic number, and accept the 9.1% figure as 'not that bad'...especially if it isn't them yet.

It would be different if the 'real' number 23% were admitted to, and used by the presstitutes. It won't be.

Slicing the 'official' unemployment numbers by level of education, something else becomes apparent. It explains why some seem to be faring better than others
...and it has nothing to do with which farm animal you vote for (the jackass or the elephant):
- The unemployment rate for BA degrees and higher is 4.3%.
- It's almost double for HS graduates at 9.3%.
- Doubling-down yet again it is 15% for non-HS graduates.

Equality of outcome is a problematic and elusive 'dream' for our "progressives." Some people are harder-working than others, and some are smarter than others. This is why such great efforts are made to 'lobotmize' the general population, and to place them into dependency [serfdom] on the government's plantation...this is easier than actually motivating people to improve their lot in life, and to be capable of critical thought. Besides, what would happen to our self-annointed 'leaders' if independence of thought and self-sufficiency were the order of the day like it used to be? [read: who needs 'em?]
