Just spin, lot's of that going on these days. Much better bad numbers 
when you include the cop down the street and the fireman as
"on the dole". These days maybe you should include half of the Wall 
Street bankers?

It's really hard to have a useful discussion on anything when you 
start out with distorted numbers, that is a sign of the times for our 
society these days.
