    I watch most of the news chanels and out of most of them RT seems to cover a lot of storys from around the world which are not being broadcast on the likes of the BBC and CNN.

    Either one of two things will happen with this occupy situation, It will either fade and disapear or turn very nasty.

      Where the fuck have you been for the last... your entire fucking lifetime.
      If he used the Alternate numbers than that's not very fair... those include people looking to upgrade a job, people with more skills than the job is (ie those with jobs) and of course long term unemployment people - which it assumes all want/need a job rather than just left the job force, like a mother might do.

      Basically it's the number opposite of full time employed people.

        Agreed, RT comes out with some damn good news that you can't find anywhere in mainstream news.

          In the parallel universe; that is like using Matt Drudge or Rush Limbaugh as a news source ...

            The ones who are in denial of the U6 numbers and the reality of whats going on in US and around the world will be the first to succumb when it gets nasty here...so no worries, let them think all is fine...the sooner we get rid of them the better.

              Prove that unemployment is 22% and heading towards 30%.

              The fact that you don't instantly understand thats impossibe and unrealistic tells how little you understand about economics.

              Links?

              Credible proof?

              22% unemployment heading towards 30%?

              So, maybe instead of being a retarded dickhead, you could provide some credible proof of anything that guy on a known anti american/anti west propaganda news station said is even close to accurate?

                You are talking about a difference of .5%-1%... not 10X greater.

                Check local, county employment offices, county and state provide much better stats.
                Las Vegas was above 20% last year. God knows what it is now. In Charleston, SC where I lived til recently, it was above 22%. These numbers are semi-hidden.

                  On top of the Las Vegas Valley's new 15 percent high, statewide unemployment was 14.4 percent in September. Nearly 200,000 Nevadans lacked jobs in the month and were looking for work. Add in discouraged workers who've dropped out of the labor force and underemployed part-timers who want full-time jobs, and unemployment in the Silver State easily exceeds 20 percent, experts say.
                  i was curious so looked up quick search...

                    Yeah, i care enough to debunk a retarded claim so much that I'm going to check 100s of local unemployment offices.

                      Currently 1 job for every 4 people looking.

                      When you take old fuckers out of the stats that went back to school to learn a new trade or add to their portfolio of skills the unemployment rate for those graduating college is 24%. We are in bad fucking shape and it's amazing that so many don't even realize how bad it's gotten.

                        A state with a runaway construction industry and housing boom coupled with the fact that its primarily a tourist destination which suffered greatly when the housing market/economy collapsed, its a unique case. Not the norm.

                        that said.. the article says 15%

                        Attempting to say the nation is at 22% and headed towards 30% is retarded.

                            The right likes to ignore the part time workers as if you can raise a family on minimum wage for 20 to 35 hours per week with no benefits. They like to ignore those that have given up because obviously they just want all of their tax dollars to live a luxurious life of poverty.

                              There is an UNDER employment rate: A15 = 16.5% Nationally Sept 2011

                              http://www.bls.gov/news.release/empsit.t15.htm

                              Some cities (and their youth rates and inner-city rates) could push 22%.
                              You can easily twist the statistics but there is a jobs problem in the USA and no one should dispute that.
