lets also not overlook the number of "underemployed," that is to say, those who aren't technically laid off, but are either forced to work less hours (4 days a week instead of 5, or etc. etc.), or are forced to work at a job that they are totally overqualified for; i.e. a laid off teacher working at mcdonalds or something.
I read that the "underemployed" numbers are as high as 12%, if not more.
