Unemployed and Uncounted

The 9.8% unemployment rate in the United States may
be closer to 20%, or 30 million Americans without a job.
Those measured are those who had a job before, are
actively looking for work and are immediately available
for work. Despite Washington DC having a somewhat
healthy economy, so many residents here are left
behind without a job, an income or any hope that
things will get better.
