Will the Real Unemployment Rate Please Stand Up


Halloween is right around the corner, and if you’re looking for a costume idea to really scare someone, consider dressing up as the real unemployment rate

That’s because economist John Williams is saying the rate is actually at 22.5 nationwide, instead of the 9.6 percent the government is reporting

Scary stuff, but I think it’s worth noting that Williams has been singing this song for awhile, even back in 2006.
