No, it's not coming down. You see, when Reagan was president, the unemployment stats were recorded and reported differently by the BLS. So right now we're at around 16-17%. And no, it's not coming down because unemployment benefits are running out for many unemployed. That doesn't magically make them employed. Try again.
