Kudos to this point.

For those not realizing that unemployment has several definitions - isn't it wonderful that all were published AND all are well-documented?

It's these points of reliability and trustworthiness that, complexity aside, we are losing from chaotic administration.

I worked on a couple of projects with state workforce development agencies and federal agencies. I was always impressed with how much focus there was on the integrity of unemployment numbers, and especially with the emphasis on making sure methodologies ensure that data from the late 1800s can be compared against modern data.
