In the US of A:
July inflation 0.6%, annualized 7.2%
August inflation 1%, annualized 12%
September inflation 1.9%, annualized 22.8%.
Current "official" unemployment: ~5%, based upon unemployed for 3 months
Current traditional unemployment: ~10%, based upon unemployed for 6 months
Current unemployment: ~15-25%, based upon everyone out of work looking for work
It doesn't really matter if you're a Republicrat or Demican, everything we're being told about our economy is a lie. The purchasing power of the dollar is down, the overall value of the dollar is still down relative to other currencies despite its tewmporary planned gain to place its planned collapse inline nicely with other whammies to the dollar that will hit at the same time to discredit it as a world reserve currency and for someone to inaugurate dictatorship in America, and "real" GDP/c is going down. Such whammies include using Fed Chairman Bernanke as a scapegoat over the "superior" Greenspan when Bernanke DOES screw up, the targetted collapse of the dollar, the world switching to the Euro and Yuan as reserve currencies, massive bank collapses as people can't make payments on their bad loans, and the world's nations calling in all their US debt for payment.
It may be hard to accept the unemployment figure, but everyone I know that's out of college, and everyone my parents know who knows someone out of college says that nobody's getting hired even after the 1000th job application and after their 1st year out, including my dad's boss' son. Even their friends whove developed software for 15+ years are getting fired left and right. My brother has a PhD in molecular biochemistry working at a drug discovery firm, it took him 2 years to get hired from his last position in a floundering pharma company, PhD's and veterans everywhere are being fired.
I've applied at Microsoft, Amazon, you name it, I've probably applied. Nobody will e-mail me or call me back. I apply at all the local stores, nobody's hiring. NOBODY. I can't beleive that a dual-degree in computer science and English, with my own independent work, isn't good enough to get me hired at Arby's making roast beefs, let alone Microsoft writing code or even tech docs for God's sake.
It might just be that I'm listening to "Hymn of the Soviet Union", "Communist International" and "Lenin Dal" over and over again right now, but even under capitalism it just doesn't make sense to outsource everything from manufacturing and software development, even burger-flipping, to China and think it's okay for a Socialist State to buy up all of the few real assets that we DO have left. They're all fulfilling Lenin's prophesy that capitalists will be hung by the rope they sold to the communists.
Normally I would think just that the socialists manipulating our economy are screwing it up, but I've come more and more to the conclusion from my investigations that they mean to supplant capitalism for world Bolshevism. Both Republican and Democrat parties are under Bolshevik control, but it should be noted that the "Bolshevik" faction is so named mostly for historical purposes now.
There is a Russian joke that goes "Under capitalism, man exploits man. Under communism, it is the other way around." It seems that all that's left for me now is slave labor under the guise of "open-source software development", "community service" and other such high-sounding nobly-named causes. I would much rather die than live in a world of shadow-Bolshevism.
