My advice might be instead of making things up to read the link below which tell you EXACTLY how the unemployment number is arrived at. This is from that link.

"Persons are classified as unemployed if they do not have a job, have actively looked for work in the prior 4 weeks, and are currently available for work."

Certainly not enough and if you are going to discuss it, I STRONGLY recommend reading how the number is arrived at...It is not a simple formula
