unemployed<\/em> (non-employ\u00e9, terme d\u00e9signant l’\u00e9quivalent de ch\u00f4meurs officiels inscrits dans les demandeurs d’emplois).<\/p>\n<\/p>\n\t\u00abAmong men ages 25 to 54 a range that starts after most people finish their education and ends well before most people retire the unemployment rate is 4.1 percent. That is not especially low, but it is well below the peak rate in all but one post-World War II recession.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n\t\u00bbOnly people without jobs who are actively looking for work qualify as unemployed in the computation of that rate. It does not count people who are not looking for work, whether or not they would like to have a job.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n\t\u00bbBut there is another rate called the jobless rate in this article that counts the proportion of people without jobs. To be sure, some of them do not want to work. Some are raising families on a spouse’s income, or are disabled, retired or independently wealthy. But others may be discouraged workers, who would take jobs if they thought any desirable positions were available.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n\t\u00bbIn the latest report, for March, the Labor Department reported the jobless rate also called the not employed rate by some at 13.1 percent for men in the prime age group. Only once during a post-World War II recession did the rate ever get that high. It hit 13.3 percent in June 1982, the 12th month of the brutal 1981-82 recession, and continued to rise from there.<\/em>\u00bb<\/p>\n<\/p>\n\tCes statistiques donnent une vision beaucoup moins optimiste de la r\u00e9alit\u00e9 sociale et de l’emploi aux USA, et correspondent mieux aux conditions de la crise en cours. On pourrait d’ailleurs ajouter \u00e0 ces chiffres une bonne partie de la population carc\u00e9rale aux USA, la premi\u00e8re du monde avec largement plus de deux millions de personnes emprisonn\u00e9es (avec une forte majorit\u00e9 d’Am\u00e9ricains noirs). Les conditions draconiennes de condamnation et d’emprisonnement permettent en g\u00e9n\u00e9ral de consid\u00e9rer que cette gigantesque population carc\u00e9rale, \u00e9videmment non recens\u00e9e dans les chiffres officiels des ch\u00f4meurs, a comme effet indirect de r\u00e9duire le taux officiel de ch\u00f4mage.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
\tNorris ajoute un d\u00e9tail int\u00e9ressant et significatif dans ces statistiques: \u00abThe government breaks down the figures by race, and those figures show that over the last year almost all the jobs lost by men in the 25 to 54 age group have been lost by whites, with most of those losses affecting men ages 35 to 44. There have been just a small number of losses by black men in the 25 to 54 age group, and employment for Hispanic men is still growing, albeit at a much slower pace than it was a few months ago.<\/em>\u00bb<\/p>\n<\/p>\n\tCette statistique des pertes d’emploi qui sont tr\u00e8s majoritairement chez les Am\u00e9ricains blancs indique qu’on se trouve devant un ph\u00e9nom\u00e8ne d’ordre \u00e9conomique. Le soup\u00e7on de racisme (licenciements prioritairement chez les Am\u00e9ricains noirs), si souvent rencontr\u00e9 dans le ph\u00e9nom\u00e8ne des pertes d’emplois aux USA, ne joue plus dans ce cas. Il s’agit d\u00e9sormais de pertes d’emploi pour raisons \u00e9conomiques pures. Ajout\u00e9 \u00e0 la r\u00e9alit\u00e9 du ch\u00f4mage aux USA selon les vrais chiffres, ce point indique que la crise financi\u00e8re est devenue \u00e9conomique et atteint d\u00e9sormais le domaine social. C’est une indication certaine de sa gravit\u00e9.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
