If you think the US has managed a recovery, I'm afraid you're in denial. The US unemployment picture is horrible, but being masked by official government figures that ignore the people who've given up looking for work, and including people working less than full time at marginal jobs.

Yes, but the EU numbers use similar data as the US, and while average is 9% unemployment, some countries are in the 20% range. And this is with a lot of 0-hour contracts or in 'courses' (doesn't count as unemployed).

If you're averaging all the US, average all of EU as well.
