This week it was announced that the current unemployment rate in my state ,South Australia is the lowest in Australia ,at 4.7%.
That sounds great,and it would be if it were true,which it isn't. The figure shows only those registered as unemployed. The real figure is probably closer to 12% or higher. (I worked for Social Security for 25 years.Those figures were always considered a joke.)
MY point? NEVER implicitly trust government figures of any kind.
