When I talked about the chance that a man is laid off, it means that job is a high income job which is suppose to finance the mortgage the house that he bought. If you guys stick to the unemployement rate, that means a fast food restruant job is good enough to support your mortgage?

Unemployment rate is anything but a ture picture of the economic weather. You talk about post 911 unemployement rate was only 10%, did you realize what happened on high tech, finance, executive jobs ? The impact was so huge the the silicion valley was dying after that.: e2 w0 \/ v- Y2 S% |8 k$ J I

As a Chinese, in an engineering company, in a bank, in a business office, your chance is much higher than your white peer to be laid off when economic is not that good. The realistic chance is higher than 50% that you are the first batch of fellows who lost their 100k sallary positions surely becuase you are not one of them.
