No less than 14.5 Million Americans are unemployed (we believe the number is substantially higher than that - use the Search Bar and type in 16.7% and see what we mean), and no less than 6.4 Million of those have been unemployed for more than 6 months. Further, Studies have made clear that those returning to the workforce are doing so at rates of pay that are significantly less than what they had been earning at their previous job.
