U6 unemployment is at 12.5% which is the #s the gov’t use during the depression.

The BLS—We didn’t start excluding discouraged workers from the #s till Clinton. If you include that number, we’re over 10% now. If you include part time workers who want full time work, that number was at 12.5% in Novemeber and rose by .7% alone in November.
