People that no longer receive income from the jobless bureau are tallied off, this means if you can't find a job one year after being canner, or released, you don't count towards the jobless statistic anymore.
In effect, the percent might be an all time low 7.8%, in reality it's more like 15% , solid and unfortunate. Let's not forget that in the eyes of the people, the homeless are no longer tallied either. So, don't even for a second think the economy is getting better.
