according to Gallup its at 9.1%

PRINCETON, NJ -- U.S. unemployment, as measured by Gallup without seasonal adjustment, increased to 9.1% in February from 8.6% in January and 8.5% in December.

The 0.5-percentage-point increase in February compared with January is the largest such month-to-month change Gallup has recorded in its not-seasonally adjusted measure since December 2010, when the rate rose 0.8 points to 9.6% from 8.8% in November. A year ago, Gallup recorded a February increase of 0.4 percentage points, to 10.3% from 9.9% in January 2011.

In addition to the 9.1% of U.S. workers who are unemployed, 10.0% are working part time but want full-time work. This percentage is similar to the 10.1% in January, but is higher than the 9.6% of February 2011.

yes I am very aware but I dont trust government numbers.

If you do then you are the fool.

But I ain't white trash
I'm wild and a little crazy too
I have seen a lot of things in my life time.
That is why I walk the line I walk.

I'm just waiting for congress to grow some balls and put a tax on companies who have more than 30% of their workforce out of country and add a tariffs to all goods imported by "U.S. Companies" who have outsourced to other countries. They also need to implement tax breaks for U.S. Based companies who keep 100% production and employment inside the continental U.S.

You're such a bad troll though, it's almost embarrassing to watch you attempt to work. Terrible use of free time. Try the Sun.
