28. Unemployment wise, we are probably worse off than in 1983 if we honestly examine unemployment.
Personally, I follow U-6 unemployment numbers, not the U-3 numbers the government reports.

U-6 unemployment number is about to breach the 16% threshold pretty soon, likely within the next couple of months if things do not swiftly change.
