Even in 2000, when the official unemployment rate was at the natural unemployment rate of 4.0%, the real unemployment rate was just about double, at 7.1%. In 2010, when the unemployment rate was its highest at 9.8%, the real rate was still nearly double, at 16.7%
Now search for the number of jobs available for all those people. They can't all work in MacDonalds. Especially when MacDonalds are looking to go automated.
