Quote from NPR news today:

— If the Labor Department were to measure unemployment more broadly — counting discouraged workers who have stopped looking and part-timers who want full-time work — the jobless rate would be 16.5 percent. That rate has been rising since the recent low of 15.8 percent in May.
