You will not see it in the media but the latest unemployment figures say that there are now 91 million people in the United States that have given up looking for work and have been unemployed for longer than 1 year. Out of a country of 314 million people that's almost 1/3rd of the country. When compared to the total working age population (ages 15-64) of the U.S. of 2,103,800 it almost 1/2. The U6 unemployment number today after 58 months of the Obama administration is higher than when he was elected tohis first term in 2008. His last campaign slogan should have been "No I can't!" not "Yes we can."
