Unemployment

So the short - term unemployment here in the United States has fallen back to where it was back in the year 2007. Although short-term unemployment has fallen the amount of long-term unemployment is still very high. Although long-term unemployment has dropped to 4.1% that is still too high. More than half of the people in this category have been umemployed for atleast 15 weeks. There are also 4.4 million workers in the United States that have been unemployed for atleast 6 months, thats really not a good thing. 4.4 million unemployed workers might be lower than that peak of 6.7 million workers but is still unacceptabe.
