This sends misleading message. People are running out of their unemployment benefits & are dropping off the rolls. Did you know that if a person is let go on Monday morning, they are counted as employed that week? If a person is too sick to apply for a job for the week, they are not counted as unemployed statistically? If an existing job is refilled, it is counted as a NEW job. Remember 'figures lie and liars figure.'
