The biggest factor about how many people are unemployed has nothing to do with the economy and everything to do with a person's pride.
If a person has convinced himself that he is worth $25/hr and will not work for less, then he's going to be unemployed for quite a while.
If on the other hand, he accepts that it's his responsibility to pay his bills regardless of what he thinks he's worth, then he'll be unemployed for about 24 hours.
In my mind it's better to be delivering pizza and getting tips than sitting on your ass collecting a check because of your stupid pride.
In the end it doesn't matter what your job title is - there's no shame in being responsible and providing for your family.
