Tears and fears as EU austerity takes Spanish unemployment to 25%

http://www.thestar.com/opinion...t-to-25

There were 24.7 million unemployed in the EU in April, of whom 17.4 million were in the eurozone. Both figures are far above the 12.7 million unemployed in the United States, which has a population about 6% less than the eurozone.

I have a clarifying question, just so I understand what you are saying.  It sounds like you are saying the economy is doing poorly because of a lack of public sector job growth, which would mean that you want more government jobs created.  Is that correct?

Do you just disagree with the methodology or are you saying there is actual fraud in the unemployment numbers?
