I didn't look to see how the numbers were computed, but do you know how these were drawn and how they would compare to the U.S.?


Europeans compute their number by including the underemployed and part-timers seeking full-time work.

Our number by that measure is 16.2%. It's why we use two numbers for the unemployment rate. The oft-mentioned one (9.1%) and the European-like one in order for economists, policymakers and the markets to be able to compare apples with apples.
