...what would make that even more astounding, I notice, is that 5 percent of those labeled as employed seem to be attached to education (apprenticeships and internships). Or at least, apprenticeships and internships in the Netherlands commonly work that way: contracts are made through higher eduction. Correct me here when I'm wrong.

You see: unemployment numbers are the biggest statistical scam on offer.

The picture I posted has actual numbers for every bit of data I used, all coming from INSEE, so you can do all the calculations you want. I also provided the link to the most recent INSEE paper on the topic. Feel free to deconstruct all you want.

I am posting a bonus table in the comments below.

  1. This was meant to be a humoristic reference to your article language deconstruction ;
  2. I guess that the INSEE figures are fed in by those from ANPE, aren't they ?

INSEE runs its own study:


L'enquête Emploi est une enquête trimestrielle et sa collecte a lieu en continu sur toutes les semaines de l'année.

Chaque trimestre, environ 35 000 ménages (c'est-à-dire 35 000 logements), soit de l'ordre de 75 000 personnes de 15 ans ou plus répondent à l'enquête. Au total chaque année, environ 54 000 ménages différents répondent à l'enquête, c'est-à-dire 115 000 personnes différentes de 15 ans ou plus.

L'enquête Emploi en continu constitue la seule source permettant de mettre en oeuvre la définition du chômage préconisée par le Bureau international du travail (BIT) et également de faire le lien entre le chômage au sens du BIT et le recensement des demandeurs d'emploi inscrits à l'Agence nationale pour l'emploi (ANPE). Ainsi, parmi les 2 717 000 chômeurs BIT de 2005, 453 000 déclarent ne pas être inscrits à l'ANPE. À l'inverse, 1 705 000 personnes déclarent être inscrites à l'ANPE, mais ne sont pas comptabilisées comme chômeurs au sens du BIT : 993 000 d'entre elles sont classées actives occupées et 712 000 inactives selon le BIT.

Deconstructing is a Good Thing. It is giving ET special value. And you know what? There's talent here.

I support more deconstructing/minute.
