How high do you guys think the unemployment rate will go before the riots start?
My suspicion is that there will be sporatic "incidents" at 20% but they will not hit their stride until unemployment reaches 30% I suspect martial law will go into effect shortly before 30% or slightly above. And here is another question.... how high will the unemployment rate go before it threatens the viability of WalMart as a viable business? How high before governmental collapse? I think if it hits 50% that it could actually happen...? mike gn

The worst rate we have ever had was 24.9% back in 33(?).

Correct, Delta. After that it fell slowly, plus or minus 1% per year, until the US began its rearmament programs in 1940-41.

Unemployment is already (truly) over 20%, it's just not being reported that way. They've been hiding the true figures for years.

And that's the problem with this country, we are too busy to riot. We on the right have jobs and responsibility, unlike our liberal counterparts.
