According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, in March the national rate of unemployment in the United States was 9.7%, but for Americans younger than 25 it was well above 18 percent.


If it runs at double the reported rate as according to shadow stats, that would put it somewhere in the 30% range.

Thanks MN

You can start to see the "slight of hand" through the years only if you pay attention

That one must be ancient.

Inflation does some funny things. Anyone remember that part of the constitution that guarantees a trial by jury if the controversy is valued at more than $20? Here it is:


In Suits at common law, where the value in controversy shall exceed twenty dollars, the right of trial by jury shall be preserved, and no fact tried by a jury, shall be otherwise re-examined in any Court of the United States, than according to the rules of the common law.

I don't know why, but that old FDIC sign reminded me of this. Soon the FDIC will be insuring everyone up to $1 million or more.
