Hoping some of the statisticians on HC might be able to answer some questions which have been bugging me for some years.
Roy Morgan Research shows true unemployment as a percentage of full workforce at about 19.4% but what is the figure if we took out the government sector employees?
How many people are employed directly at Council & State, and Federal Government in number and as a percentage of total workforce?
How many of unemployed receive unemployment benefits?
How many unemployed are looking for jobs and how many jobs are there available in total?
How many new jobs are suited to current unemployed?
How many of the 19.4% unemployed got any of the 400,000 new jobs claimed to have been created in last 12 months?
How many of new jobs were government jobs?
What percentage of workers in CBD areas are government workers?

What it indicates is that private capitalism is incapable of providing the amount of employment that is required. This trend will continue and government will need to provide 100% of the employment, which capitalism is incapable of producing as a system of production and employment.
