How are the national unemployment numbers added up?
Q. I have heard that when you see statistics for instance that 9.5% of Americans are unemployed that actually the number is much higher than that. That the 9.5% spoke of only represents people who have been laid off from a job for no fault of their own and are actually drawing government funded unemployment compensation. The people who have lost their jobs and for one reason or another do not qualify for unemployment or maybe their unemployment has ran out, they are not added into the national unemployment average. Thus a actual unemployment statistic could be as high as 15%. Is this true? How are the unemployed workers tallied up?

A. It's true, there are a hell of a lot more unemployed than the government can count because of the reasons you've cited; and other reasons as well. I think if we knew the true numbers we would claim a depression and that would send the markets into a tailspin, the government would quickly follow. I believe the numbers are fudged and have been since the 1930s.

Q. Was it after the first gas shortage that caused long gas waiting lines that the National Speed Limit became 55 MPH? My Dad said it was early 70's? But we are not really sure of the dates.

A. The speed limit was reduced to 55MPH following the 1973 oil embargo. The Arab members of OPEC decided to stop shipping oil to the countries that supported Israel in the Yom Kippur war with Egypt and Syria. As a result of the decline in oil imports into the US, gasoline because more difficult to find... there was gas rationing and long lines to buy gas and as today- the price of oil and gasoline skyrocketed. The Federal government enacted some laws to reduce oil and gasoline consumption. One of these was the reduction of the speed limit. Before that the typical speed limit on federal highways (interstates, US routes) was at least 65MPH. In the western states, with low population density, some roads had speed limits of 75 or 80 MPH.
