Tegal, are you posting the above definition to illustrate that when someone says that we have full employment, it is a nonsense, as if that person had worked one hour last week he is deemed to be employed by the above definition?
Please elaborate.
And how would anyone know if I was actually searching for a job?
The real unemployed are those whom are on the dole. There are thousands whom are not who should be recorded and are not.
My uncle's has been self employed as a film editor for a number of years. He got sick for a bit, got better, had lost his contracts and basically hadn't worked for a year. He thought blow this I've been paying tax all my life, I'm going to be a statistic recorded. Attempted to apply at WINZ, not eligible for anything as his wife earned too much and he had a mortgage free house. He has never officially been recorded as unemployed. For all the government knows he has been having a holiday for the last year.
Hopefully this sort of crap will change your Farmer Bill and Don Key gone.
