shouldnt the weeks unemployed side of the chart reflect up to 99 for all the "99ers"?

The shaded areas would cover all the upticks if those cozy smug cunts defining recessions based their definition on productivity and not the amount of counterfeit dollars circulating.

Thats funny, after every other "Recession" (note they still refuse to call it a Depression), things get Better, not WORSE.

I guess the defenitions of Recessions and Depressions has jack shit to do with Main Street, only the greedy Banksters on Wall Street.

I passed 99 weeks two years ago. They kicked me off and quit counting me.

Given, I have work now, but it's at a 75% paycut. I am now permanently underemployed.

But I don't count.

Neither do I. Neither do my neighbors, the guy that I had a Business with, his wife, at least half of my friends and family.

10% Unemployment My Ass! Try 35 to 50%!
