I never said their employment rate is 4% lower; I said as of right now their rate hovers around 4%, 4.9% to be exact. Hidden inflated employment data? You think we don't have that same problem? We have the same thing. In the published data retirees and public assistance beneficiaries are not considerd in any country; the same as here. Our rate as of now is 5.6%; thats about a percentage point higher than theirs. The problem I refer to is what is the problem with their version of social support programs; not any problem with you personally.Oh; who is it that "Widely regards their employment figures to be much different than the stated numbers", I never heard that.
